Business phone systems and VoIP for Aston businesses, from offices at Aston Cross to shops, community services and workshops across B6. Keep your 0121 numbers and move off copper lines with no downtime.
Aston is an inner-city district just north of Birmingham city centre, between the A38(M) Aston Expressway and the M6 at junction 6. It has a long industrial history and remains one of the most diverse parts of the city, with established communities in Newtown, Lozells and Witton.
Aston Cross, beside the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal, has been redeveloped as a business village with offices for public-sector, health, education and service organisations. The surrounding Waterlinks area mixes newer offices with light industrial units and workshops.
Elsewhere in B6, high streets around Six Ways and Newtown support independent retailers, food businesses, community organisations and healthcare providers. Many still run on analogue lines that need a modern replacement.
B6 combines a modern business village, canal-side industry and busy neighbourhood high streets.
Modern offices on Rocky Lane housing public-sector, health and service organisations. Contact-centre features and Teams integration are common needs.
Light industrial units and offices along the canal, often replacing older PBX systems.
Shops, community services and healthcare west of Aston Cross, where Phoneline+ and Horizon are popular.
Independent retail and food businesses around the Six Ways junction that want an affordable, reliable business line.

0121 is the local dialling code for Aston. Whatever platform you move to, you keep the number your customers already know. See our 0121 numbers page for more on local numbers.
Once you're on VoIP, extra numbers cost very little. Aston businesses commonly add direct dials for key staff, an 0800 number for customer enquiries or numbers from other UK areas to reach new markets.
Aston's business community is a mix of public and community services, light industry, trades and independent retail. Aston Cross brings larger office-based employers, while the surrounding streets are dominated by small, often family-run businesses.
That range means we supply everything from a single digital line for a shop to systems with call queues and recording for larger offices. Multilingual auto-attendants and simple call routing are frequent requests from community organisations.
All six platforms below are available to Aston businesses. We'll match one to your size, workflow and budget, and handle the setup, porting and support.

Get Expert Advice →Openreach is withdrawing the UK's traditional analogue and ISDN lines, and Aston businesses still relying on them need a digital replacement. The good news is that moving is usually straightforward.
Any service that still runs over a traditional line is affected: business phone lines, ISDN2 and ISDN30, older PBX systems, and line-dependent equipment such as card terminals, alarm diallers and door entry systems. Switch-off dates vary by exchange and have moved before, so we don't quote fixed dates here. Check where your lines stand with our PSTN switch-off checker.
Moving a Aston business onto VoIP is a planned project, not a leap in the dark. We keep your numbers, test everything before go-live and switch over when it suits you.
Practical guidance for Aston businesses choosing a new phone system, replacing old lines or getting more out of VoIP.
Many shops and small firms in Aston rely on one analogue line. Gamma Phoneline+ replaces it with a digital line that keeps the same 0121 number and works with the existing phone, so there's nothing new to learn.
If you need more, a hosted system adds call forwarding to mobiles, voicemail-to-email and multiple numbers for a modest monthly cost.
An ageing PBX in the comms cupboard is often the biggest risk to a B6 business's phones: spare parts get harder to find, and the lines it relies on are being withdrawn.
We can move you to a hosted system, upgrade to a current on-premise platform, or connect what you have to SIP trunks, whichever makes most sense for your budget.
Call recording is built into most of the platforms we supply. Aston businesses use it to confirm orders, resolve disputes, train staff and meet compliance requirements.
Recordings are stored securely in the cloud with search and retention controls, so you can find a call in seconds and keep it for as long as you need to.
We're UK-based and serve customers nationwide, so a business with sites in Aston and elsewhere can have every office on the same phone system and support desk.
