Hello | We're Fat Free

We're fat free, or by our proper title, The Fat Free Fone Company. We could start by telling you that we're a full service communications company and, well, we help you communicate, however you choose to do it, whether you're in business or just in your home...cheaply...blah blah.

We are all that, but that's not really the whole story. We're a bunch of people who happen to love what we do and we think we do it rather well. We're passionate about it. And what we realise is that what makes us tick is generally the reason why our clients like being with us. So we named our 5 Fs (or 6, we're still deciding whether fat free is one or two):

be frank
We like being frank. Why be fluffy when you can be frank? No one wants their time wasted so we like to get to the point, say it straight. We aim to put our wares on the table so you can clearly choose what you need, and if you can't see what you need, you can talk to us. We'll be frank, we'll tell you what we can do for you, and what we can't. A bit of old fashioned honesty. Even the girls will be frank.

be functional
It's got to work. Be practical, be helpful. That's our underlying principle. We're not selling decoration, we sell tools to get the job done. It's our job to make sure you get the right tool for the job, and the best tools in the toolkit. And we've pretty much got the whole kit, whether you just need a simple phone line, or want a business that communicates totally on IP technology. And we'll be frank about keeping it functional.

be friendly
Wouldn't you rather do business with people you like? We know we do, and they're the most productive relationships. Being frank and functional could get a bit robot like, so we aim to be friendly too...keep it light. After all, if you can't trust you're friends, who can you?

be fun
Life's too short not to have a little fun. We like what we do...sure we've all got jobs to do but if we all have a little fun along the way then we're more likely to do them better. Of course we don't always get it right....sometimes we get a GGW (Gag Gone Wrong). But that's all part of the fun.

be fat free
That's about it. By being frank, functional, friendy and fun, we're being fat free. And if you like the sound of that, then you'll probably like being with us.
