Welcome Announcement
Play A Welcome Message To Your Callers
The welcome announcement is free service that can be added to your Tamar Telecommunications phone number, should you want to give a professional first impression to your callers.
The welcome announcement can also be used to notify your callers that calls are monitored, or to play a required legal announcement to the caller. This is commonly asked for by businesses that are regulated by the financial services authority.

An example of a welcome announcement
Once the welcome announcement has been played to the caller, the caller would then hear ringing as the number tries your landline/mobile number(s) as normal.
The welcome announcement can be made over the phone. Alternatively a .wav file of a announcement can be uploaded via the online control panel.
We can provide professionally made voiceovers with a choice of male and female voices. Some of which can be heard across the UK on television, radio and phone lines for companies such as Disney, Oak Furniture Land, Panasonic, Hewlett Packard, Mercedes-Benz, Shell, Kelloggs and Samsung.voiceovers page.
The welcome announcement service can be added to and taken off numbers via the online control panel and mobile app.

Welcome Announcement
The welcome announcement service simply answers the call by playing a pre-made announcement to the caller before diverting the call to you. This could be to give that critical first impression to your callers, or to give a required legal disclaimer for companies that are regulated by the Financial Services Authority for example. We can also provide professionally made voiceovers.

The voicemail can answer your calls for you when your line is engaged and not answered. By using timed diverts, you can also have voicemail at certain times, for example when you are closed. Messages left by callers are then emailed to one or more email addresses as a .wav sound file. Voicemail messages can also be listened to both online and by dialling in to the voicemail box.
