The Virtual Office Testimonials
"For the last 3 years we were with a very well known, top branded virtual office provider. We chose them as they were a global company and a common name in the industry, so seemed a safe bet. Sadly, the service was extremely poor in just about every respect from day one up to the point of trying to leave - which in itself took about 3 months to sort out.
We stayed as long as we did because it seemed easier than the upheaval of moving, until we found The Virtual Office Group. From first point of contact we were very impressed; the offices are beautiful and very well maintained and somewhere where we are happy to take our clients. They were very helpful through the rather painful experience of trying to leave our old service provider who appeared to have no procedures in place for a smooth departure.
Start up with The Virtual Office Group was incredibly smooth, we knew what was going on all the time, when our new telephone numbers would be up and running and we always had someone on call to ask any questions.
All the staff are very friendly and helpful and our telephone calls are handled professionally and efficiently with all messages relayed to us immediately and accurately. I can highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Virtual Office."

"It has been wonderful to be associated with you providing as you do an unparallel service in all things and so very polite and helpful. If there was a 6 star rating you would have it. What more can I say you are a great team..."

"The Virtual Office has been a fantastic find; intelligent staff giving quality service with that personal touch. Doing business here is a joy!"

The 211 Piccadilly and the Virtual Office has certainly helped us when starting up business in the UK. It gave us quick and easy access to prime location at affordable costs that would simply not have been possible otherwise.
The flexibility of office and meeting space is also very important as we have people over from Stockholm regularly on project basis over shorter periods of time. The Virtual Office switchboard concept is ideal when you have offices in different places with 'one number reaches all, anywhere'."

"We couldn't afford offices of our own at the start, let alone a fully salaried presence on the end of a phone. We had to be out there in the marketplace, promoting our services and actually delivering the training.
We also needed a contact point that would respond as Stehle Associates, transfer calls to wherever we happened to be and handle all the day-to-day stuff, including faxes and the post. In a nutshell, what we required was a professional image, which is precisely what we have with The Virtual Office.
Operating with a virtual home continues to work out very well for us and causes our customers no problems at all. In addition, when we need a venue for business meetings, we just pay for what we are using, which is extremely cost effective.
Apart from that, 211 Piccadilly has plenty of character – the best of the old architecturally, combined with the best of the new when it comes to technology and comfort."

"When we formed the company five years ago, all we required was a professional front of house service and back office support, which we got. Rapid success meant we decided to physically move into 211 Piccadilly.
We have a second office in Kent now. But we retain The Virtual Office service for reception, call answering and forwarding and additional secretarial work, as it saves tying up expensive resource there. We can also take advantage of the extended service from 8am to 6.30pm, which is essential in the headhunting business.
With over twenty consultants and associates, our physical presence at 211 Piccadilly is a must. The reception service is easily as good as you'd find at any large corporate. Plus it's a very easy location to find; especially for interviewees arriving from Europe, as they can get on the underground at Heathrow and be with us within an hour of landing.
We also use the impressive meeting rooms for presentations to clients. They come complete with everything we require – projectors, screens, etc, so we don't have to spend money on equipment we may only use once or twice a month. Everything considered, I would say that The Virtual Office puts on a very good show indeed!"

"Having come from a corporate background I have found the commercial facilities at The City Arc to be of the highest standard. The comprehensive packages of services offered are first rate and allow me the flexibility to operate my business on an efficient and cost effective basis.
The overall appearance of the building and the efficiency of the resident support staff combine to make it an ideal venue from which to conduct business."
Gordon Blackburn, GLB Consulting Ltd
"We have used the Virtual Office since we went "live" in 2000. Successful new-wave paradigm businesses like Topinterim gather around themselves crucial partnerships, their IT partners, their web site builders, their customers (of course) and in our case our crucial two rings telephony through the Virtual Office. They were early pioneers in the building and development of these amazing systems.
But the Virtual Office have become more than that. As an innovative family business of the highest calibre, they have attracted teams around them who have a true passion for what they do. They are simply a real pleasure to work with and we feel that they really enjoy seeing us becoming successful, as so many of their clients have also become successful.
A true and unique incubator of new business innovation with an obsession for outstanding client service. 211 Piccadilly, with the Virtual Office telephony was Compaq's first UK office - enough said."
