The Phone Co-op

Phone Co-op values

The Phone Co-op is the fastest growing consumer co-operative in the country and now has over 13,000 customers. This is because they give their customers what they want: a low cost service, backed up by ethical, green values – your values.

As well as using recycled stationery and power from renewables throughout the business, they offset their CO2 emissions resulting from the connecting of their customers' phone calls. 75% of the mileage covered on business trips last year was by less environmentally damaging forms of transport such as train and bus. They also pay a proportion of their profits each year into a co-op development loan fund to help new and expanding co-operatives (£70,000 so far).
 

Benefits to the Soil Association and to you

The Soil Association receives 6% of the VAT exclusive amount you spend on calls, broadband and mobile calls. You benefit by using an ethical co-operative for your telecoms, accountable to you and people like you, with your concerns always considered.
 

Services

Landline calls, broadband services, line rental and (for business only) mobile.
 

Residential customers

There are packages to suit every type of residential telephone user. Please click on the link below to refer to The Phone Co-op website. You can use The Phone Co-op for your phone calls, broadband and line rental, in single combinations or in packages. Savings on calls will be up to 15% against BT and 5% on line rental.
 

Business customers

Business customers are advised to contact The Phone Co-op team direct to discuss their requirements. They can analyse your bill from your present supplier of phone and/or broadband services to check how much those services would cost with The Phone Co-op.

Please visit www.phone.coop/soil or call 0845 458 9070, ensuring that you quote Soil Association AF0102.
