The real numbers

From £600/month for a human to £19/month for AI

Traditional UK virtual receptionist services — where a human operator answers your calls — typically charge between £150 and £600 per month, depending on how many calls you receive. Some add per-minute fees on top, and most require a 12-month contract. For a small business that gets a few dozen calls a day, that is a serious monthly bill.

Recello replaces that entirely. For £19/month (Start plan) you get an AI receptionist that answers every call, 24/7, with no per-minute surprise fees and no long contract. The Business plan at £39/month adds more call minutes, priority setup and more. Both are covered by our 14-day satisfaction guarantee.

Here is how the costs compare in practice: a human answering service at 10 calls per day will typically run you £250–£400/month. Recello handles the same volume at a fraction of the price — and she also remembers your company data, takes orders and books appointments, which no human call-answering service does.

No hidden per-minute fees

Human services often bill per minute on top of the monthly fee. Recello is one simple monthly price for the AI receptionist service — you always know what you pay.

No 12-month contracts

Human services usually lock you in for a year. Recello is month-to-month, cancel anytime, no penalties.

24/7 included

Many human services charge extra for out-of-hours answering. Recello answers at 3am exactly like at 3pm — included.

More than answering

A human service only takes messages. Recello answers questions with your real data, takes orders and books appointments.

Setup in a day

Human services take days to onboard. Recello is live within 1–3 working days of your details.

14-day guarantee

Try it risk-free: if you are not satisfied within 14 days, we refund your plan fee in full.
