Is your business covered for Christmas?

Leave a reply

Just because you’re on a break doesn’t mean your business is too

I know, I know, it’s not even November yet and here’s a post about Christmas (56 days away)! But trust me; if you run a small business this could be priceless.

Many of us take a break over the festive period, however, that doesn’t mean that business has to take a break too.

With our Holiday Cover service we’ll allocate your business a number for you to give to your customers or potential customers. We’ll then answer calls (answering as either “reception” or in your company name depending on what package you opt for; Basic or Plus) and take messages which will be forwarded onto you via email.

The service can be used for just 1 week or up to 4 weeks. Normally we’d pick up calls Monday to Friday, 9am to 5:30pm, over the Christmas period we can answer calls on (exact times may change; keep your eyes on the blog for updates):

Monday 23rd December: 9am to 5:30pm
Tuesday 24th: 9am to 12:45pm
Friday 27th: 9am to 5:30am
Monday 30th: 9am to 5:30pm
Tuesday 31st: 9am to 3pm Continue reading →

NYC’s Start-Up rival according to its Mayor? London of course

Leave a reply

Silicon roundabout, just a few minutes walk from us.

Speaking recently at a seminar in New York, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said that he believes London, not Silicon Valley, to be NYC’s closest rival when it comes to hi-tech start-ups:

“Our competition is only going to be in other cities that have similar kinds of characteristics and the city that comes to mind is London”

Old Street roundabout (also known as Silicon roundabout), situated just a few minutes walk from our office, is now considered the tech start-up hub of the UK with companies such as Moo, Moshi Monsters and Last.fm all being based around the area.

An ideal time to have a London Presence then!

Using our address as your company’s registered office address

If you sign up for our “Premium” or “Mail Box Pro” packages you can use our address as your company’s registered office. So first things first…

What is a Registered Office?

The registered office is the official address for a UK limited company. A company does not need to trade from nor be based at the address; it just needs to be contactable via mail. Continue reading →

How long does it take to receive my mail?

Leave a reply

We aim to send mail on the day that we receive it

If you have a mail forwarding service, you will no doubt want to know how long it takes to receive your mail after we’ve processed it. So here you go.

We aim to send mail on the day that we receive it or the day after (Monday to Friday).

If the mail being forwarded is a regular item and is being sent to a UK address, we will send it via Royal Mail 1st Class. This should be with you within the next working day, including Saturdays.

If the mail being sent is Registered Office mail (only relevant if you have a Registered Office service), we will send it via Royal Mail 2nd Class. This should be with you within the next two or three days, once again including Saturdays. Continue reading →
