Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between your Prestigious and Premium London addresses?
Our Prestigious London addresses are located at 85 Great Portland Street and 7 Bell Yard and our Premium London address is located at 167-169 Great Portland Street.
While our Prestigious addresses will create a great impression with clients and suppliers of an established business with its own Central London premises, upgrading to our Premium London location ensures an even more prominent address at 167-169 Great Portland Street – a large, iconic and very attractive Edwardian building, steeped in London history.
Our Virtual Business Address and Virtual Business Plus clients at our Premium London address also benefit from our range of private meeting rooms for hire for up to 10 people, free tea and coffee, a fully-equipped kitchen, as well as access to our Business Lounge.
What are the fees for using the meeting rooms at your Premium London address?

Our meeting rooms can be hired by our Virtual Business Address and Virtual Business Plus clients at our Premium address for as little as £20/hour + VAT. Use of our meeting rooms also grants you free access to our Business Lounge.
Which of your services or combined packages allow use of the Premium London address?
You can choose to upgrade any of our services or combined packages to our Premium London location. However, only Virtual Business Address and Virtual Business Plus clients using the Premium location have the option to hire our range of meeting rooms, with additional access granted to our Business Lounge.
How does a Virtual Business Address work?

Our 85 Great Portland Street office has a four-seater meeting table to use, and our Bell Yard office has a six-seater meeting table (fees apply).
Can I use a Virtual Business Address for my Registered Office Address?
Our Virtual Business Address cannot be used as a Registered Office Address or Director Service Address. However, if you purchase our package Virtual Business Plus, this can be used as your Virtual Business Address, Registered Office Address and Director Service Address.
How much do you charge for your meeting rooms?

How frequently is mail forwarded?

Is there a charge for mail forwarding?
The cost of forwarding business mail to you is:
  • Letters at £0.50 per item + Royal Mail 1st class postal charges.
  • Parcels at £5 per item + Royal Mail Tracked postal charges.
Can I use your address on my ‘Google My Business’ profile?
No, unfortunately our virtual office locations are not eligible for a 'Google My Business' profile on Google. However, other smaller online business directories might allow our locations to be used.
How does the Telephone Answering Service work?
You can choose either a London (020), Edinburgh (0131) or Ipswich (01473) phone number which you can either use as your own number or you can divert calls to it when you are busy. When your number is called, we answer it in your company name. We then let the caller know they are through to reception and that your phone extension is busy. We will take a message and their contact information, which are all immediately uploaded to your online admin account and sent to you by email and via the MYCO smartphone app.
What days and hours does your Telephone Answering Service operate?
Our Telephone Answering Service operates between 9am-5.30pm, Monday to Friday. (excluding bank holidays)
Does my contract automatically renew at the end of my 12-month term?
No, we do not automatically renew any of our services. We send a renewal email approx. a month before an annual renewal is due. These are followed by several reminders if action has not been taken.
What ID do I need to supply?
The account holder is required to supply proof of ID (passport, driving licence photocard, national identity card, military identity card, residence permit or visa) and proof of address documentation (utility bill, bank statement, mortgage statement, HMRC Notice of Coding) within seven days. This is to ensure that we comply with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations and ‘Know Your Customer’ requirements. You will be shown where to upload your ID once your order is complete.
Do you accept parcels?
We accept an unlimited number of parcels, provided each is no larger than a standard shoebox (approx. 35x25x13cm) and weighs no more than 3kg.

Our parcel handling fee is £5 per parcel for collection or forwarding (plus postage).
Oversize and/or overweight parcels (see above) will be refused.
