Business phone systems for the CR postcode area
CR covers Croydon and the surrounding parts of South London & Surrey, on the 020 and 01883 dialling codes. We set up cloud phone systems and local numbers for businesses right across the area, from £19 per user a month.
Where the CR postcode area covers
The CR postcode area is named after Croydon and stretches across South London & Surrey. Towns inside it include:
- Croydon
- Purley
- Caterham
- Coulsdon
Phone numbers here normally start 020 and 01883. Because our lines are cloud based, the postcode of your premises doesn't limit which number you can use — you can keep a 020 number if you move office within South London & Surrey, or add a second number for another town entirely.
Postcode boundaries and dialling code boundaries don't line up exactly, so a few addresses at the edge of CR sit on a neighbouring code. If you're not sure which applies to you, tell us your address and we'll check before you order.

Switching
Moving a Croydon business off old lines
Most businesses in CR are still on copper PSTN lines or an ISDN system that has to be replaced before the network is retired. Swapping to a cloud system removes line rental, keeps your existing number and gives you call routing, voicemail-to-email and a mobile app on the same plan.
Porting your number takes around 5 to 10 working days. Your old line keeps running until the port completes; on cutover day there is a short window where calls may not connect, so we agree a time with you and recommend pointing a mobile at the business in the meantime.
