Every day, thousands of people use Infopoint help-points – wall or desk-mounted free phones for calling taxis, travel information, customer service, helplines and other useful services.
Your customers use them for free, simple and convenient telephone access to services which aren’t provided nearby or on site, but which improve or add value to your customers’ experience at your premises.
