Why Compare?
Most businesses overpay on their mobile contracts by 20 to 35 percent. The main reasons are auto renewed contracts at inflated rates, data plans that do not match actual usage, and hidden charges. Comparing all four networks side by side reveals whether you are getting good value or paying more than you need to.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to switch business mobile provider?
The actual number transfer takes one working day per line. The overall process from getting a quote to completing the switch typically takes 5 to 10 working days depending on how many lines you have. We handle all the coordination so you do not need to chase anything yourself.
Will I lose my phone numbers when switching?
No. You keep every single phone number when you switch business mobile provider. Number porting is your legal right under OFCOM regulations. We collect the PAC codes from your current provider and port all numbers to the new network. Not a single digit changes.
Can I switch if I'm still in a contract?
Yes. Even if you are mid-contract, you can still switch. Our Switching Promise covers agreed early termination fees so the new network effectively buys you out. If you are out of contract, you can switch immediately with no penalties. Many businesses do not realise their contract has already ended and they are overpaying on a rolling deal. Terms apply.
Do I need new phones when switching network?
No. Your existing phones work on any UK network. You simply swap the SIM card or activate an eSIM. If you want new devices, we can include handsets at zero upfront cost on the new contract. But if your current phones are fine, SIM-only deals save you approximately £11+VAT to approximately £11+VAT per month per line.
How much can I save by switching?
Businesses typically save 20 to 40 per cent per line when switching provider. For a company with 10 lines paying approximately £11+VAT per month each, that is approximately £11+VAT to approximately £11+VAT per year. Over a 24-month contract the saving can reach approximately £11+VAT or more. We provide a free no-obligation quote so you can see the exact saving before committing.
Is there any downtime when switching?
The switchover interruption is typically under two hours and you choose when it happens. Most businesses schedule it for early morning or lunchtime. For multi-line accounts we stagger the ports so you always have active lines throughout the process.
Can you handle switching for large businesses with 50+ lines?
Yes. We regularly manage migrations for businesses with 50 to 500 lines. We create a phased porting schedule, assign a dedicated account manager, coordinate with the networks, and ensure business continuity throughout. The process is the same just more carefully staged.
What is the CTN Switching Promise?
The CTN Switching Promise means we cover agreed early termination fees when you switch to a new contract through us. If you are locked into a contract with your current provider, the new deal effectively buys you out so you are not paying twice. Agreed fees only, terms apply.
