Business phone systems for the ME postcode area

ME covers Medway and the surrounding parts of Kent, on the 01634 and 01622 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 ME postcode area covers

The ME postcode area is named after Medway and stretches across Kent. Towns inside it include:

  • Rochester
  • Chatham
  • Maidstone
  • Sittingbourne

Phone numbers here normally start 01634 and 01622. Because our lines are cloud based, the postcode of your premises doesn't limit which number you can use — you can keep a 01634 number if you move office within Kent, 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 ME 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 Medway business off old lines

Most businesses in ME 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.
