Business mobile phones that fit the way your team works
Keep your people connected in the office, on site and on the move.
Chrome helps you choose the right network, tariff and handset for each role, manages the switch, and stays available when your team or your requirements change.
The right tariff
Choose calls and data allowances based on how each person actually uses their phone.
The right devices
Get practical advice on smartphones, rugged handsets, accessories and business SIM only plans.
Support after setup
Speak to people who know your account when you need to make a change or get something sorted.
Take the guesswork out of choosing business mobile phones
Choosing business mobile phones can take more time than expected.
The right allowance is rarely the biggest one on the list, or the cheapest.
Pick too much and you pay for data nobody uses.
Pick too little and out-of-bundle charges soon add up.
You won’t be pushed towards the biggest tariff or the newest handset simply because it costs more.
We start by understanding how your team works. We’ll look at where people use their phones, how much data they need and whether their current devices still do the job. Then we’ll explain the options and help you make a well-informed choice.
As an independent business mobile provider, we work with networks including O2, EE and Vodafone, so the recommendation is based on what your team needs rather than one network’s range.
Keep your business mobile account under control
A mobile account rarely stays the same for long.
People join, change roles or leave. Devices are replaced. Data use goes up and down. Someone will eventually lose a SIM at the least convenient moment.
Your Chrome account manager can help with:
- Adding and removing connections
- Replacing lost or damaged SIMs
- Reviewing calls and data use
- Changing allowances where options are available
- Planning handset upgrades
- Checking roaming options
- Answering questions about your bill
You have one team to call, rather than being left to deal with the network alone.
Help protect company devices and information
A lost phone creates more than an inconvenience.
Company mobiles hold emails, customer details, applications and access to business accounts.
Mobile device management, often shortened to MDM, gives you more control over company-owned phones and tablets. It covers company security settings, application management and the ability to lock a device or remove company data remotely.
MDM will not be necessary for every organisation. We’ll explain what it does and help you decide whether it suits your business, alongside your wider cyber security arrangements.
Check coverage where your team works
Coverage varies between offices, homes, customer sites and different parts of the country.
We’ll ask where your people use their phones most often and help you compare the network options for those locations.
Coverage is also affected by buildings, devices and local network conditions. We’ll explain this clearly rather than making promises a network cannot keep.
Match business mobile tariffs to each role
Different people use their mobiles in different ways.
Someone travelling between customer sites may need plenty of data. Someone based mainly in the office may use much less.
We can review your usage and help you choose allowances that better reflect each role. For many companies that means a mix of business mobile plans on one account rather than the same tariff for everybody.
Choose handsets for the job
The newest handset is not always the right one.
Some people need a high-spec camera, a larger screen or extra battery life. Others need a simple phone that handles calls, messages and everyday applications. Teams working on construction sites or in demanding environments often benefit from rugged devices.
We’ll help you compare the choices without filling the conversation with technical specifications you do not need.
Business SIM only plans for the handsets you already own
Happy with your current devices?
A business SIM only plan lets you keep your existing handsets and pay for the connection alone. It is often the simplest way to avoid replacing phones before you need to.
We’ll explain the available business SIM cards, tariffs and contract terms so you can compare the full cost across the term rather than the monthly figure on its own.
Business data SIMs for tablets and equipment
Not every connection goes in a phone.
A business data SIM can keep tablets, vehicle trackers, card machines and site equipment online.
Where a site needs a backup connection or has no fixed line, 5G internet may be worth considering alongside your business internet.
Plan ahead for business travel
Mobile charges abroad become complicated quickly.
Tell us where your team is travelling and we’ll explain the roaming options, fair-use rules and likely charges before they leave.
Keep your existing mobile numbers
In most cases, business mobile numbers can be moved to a new provider using a Porting Authorisation Code, usually called a PAC.
We’ll explain how to request the codes and help you plan the transfer.
The process and timescale vary depending on the network, contract and type of number. We’ll confirm the expected steps before anything is moved.

Mobile accounts managed by a team that answers
Customer reviews are one of the clearest measures of the service we provide.
Read what customers say about Chrome’s communication, support and the people behind the service in our reviews.
Business mobile phone FAQs
Your mobiles need to work alongside your business phone system, Microsoft 365 accounts, IT policies and security.
Chrome supports all of these through one team, which means fewer suppliers to manage and one place to go for advice. It also helps us understand how a change to one service could affect the rest of your setup.
Keep your people connected and make the working day easier.
Can we keep our existing mobile numbers?
In most cases, business mobile numbers can be moved to a new provider using a Porting Authorisation Code, usually called a PAC.
We’ll explain how to request the codes and help you plan the transfer.
The process and timescale vary depending on the network, contract and type of number. We’ll confirm the expected steps before anything is moved.
Do you provide handsets and business SIM only plans?
Yes. We can discuss business mobile plans that include new handsets, and business SIM only options for companies that want to keep their existing devices.
Can different people have different allowances?
Options are usually available for people with different data and usage requirements. We’ll review how your team works and explain the suitable business mobile tariffs.
How do you help us choose a network?
We’ll ask where your people use their phones most often and help you compare the available coverage information for those locations. Actual coverage varies by device, building and local network conditions.
What happens if a phone is lost or stolen?
Contact Chrome as soon as possible. We can help with actions such as blocking the SIM and arranging a replacement. Further controls may be available where mobile device management has been set up.
Can you help with international roaming?
Yes. Tell us where your team is travelling and we’ll explain the available options, charges and fair-use conditions.
Can we add more connections later?
In many cases, yes. We’ll check the available options and explain any effect on your contract and monthly charges before making the change.
Can Chrome manage our other business technology?
Yes. Chrome supports business phone systems, connectivity, managed IT, cyber security, CCTV and workplace tools, as well as business mobiles.
Is your current mobile setup still right for your team?
Mobile accounts often develop one connection at a time. That can leave a business managing different devices, allowances, contract dates and costs.
A free Chrome Audit gives you a clearer view of your current setup.
We’ll explain what is working, where there may be unnecessary cost and which areas are worth reviewing. There is no pressure to change something that is already doing its job.
