Since joining Gemco in July 2025, I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with CommsProvider, and the experience has been excellent from day one. They provide hosting and support for our Wildix phone system, as well as managing our O2 and EE mobile contracts, all delivered with a consistently high level of professionalism and responsiveness. What really stands out is the strength of their team. Communication is always clear, issues are handled promptly, and there’s a genuine willingness to go the extra mile to ensure everything runs smoothly. It’s rare to find a supplier that combines technical expertise with such a personable and proactive approach. CommsProvider truly offer a “one-stop shop” — covering everything from office equipment and telephony to structured cabling, internet connectivity, and more. Having a single, reliable partner across these areas has been incredibly valuable. I would have no hesitation in recommending CommsProvider to any organisation looking for a dependable and knowledgeable provider. Give them a try — you won’t be disappointed.

10/10 would 100% recommend! Having dealt with Commsprovider for around 12 months, I cant compliment them more highly on there customer service and technical experience. Having had a major problem with our phone system, following a change of broadband provider, the support we received was excellent and the staff went above and beyond the call of duty. They are the first people I go to for advice and have worked closely with me during various projects and we have always had a great outcome.
