Matt Wilson Speaks at Essex University

Published On: April 22nd, 2013

In April, Matt Wilson (Chairman of Telecoms Cloud) visited Essex University to attend their 2nd annual Industry Day at their School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering – focused on the theme of ‘The Connected World’. Matt spoke about the growing use of Big Data, and its use in providing cloud-based telecommunication systems.

The event was made even more significant with the launch of new degree schemes at the University focusing on Cloud Computing and Multimedia. With other talks from experts at Essex University and in industry, followed by an expert Q&A panel, the event was deemed a great success by the organisers.

Crosby Treble Office Space

Published On: August 21st, 2012

Crosby Systems have expanded into big new offices within the Liverpool Innovation Park.  Crosby Systems have been situated at the Liverpool Innovation Park since 2010 and have rapidly expanded across several offices during that period.

CEO Matt Wilson said, “We’ve simply run out of space. Plus, we’ve got 3 exciting new job openings that are advertised on our website and we need more space for them, so we’ve taken a much bigger office for the business to expand into.  We’ll be moving our operations over the next few months and running both the current and new offices for the time being so as not to disrupt operations.  The team and I are looking forward to great things in our new office and the expansion of our current team.”

The new Crosby Systems office opens on 1st Oct 2012 and customers are welcome to visit and see it for themselves with an appointment.

Crosby Systems to Close Cheap Calls to Mobiles Service

Published On: June 5th, 2012

Crosby Systems launched the brand Cheap Calls to Mobiles to help bring down the cost of calling a mobile from a landline in the UK, however we believe our mission is now complete, and now we find both the mobile and landline operators have lowered these call charges.  With continuing pressure from both Ofcom and the EU to lower charges, we believe now is the time to look at closing our service.

From 5th September 2012, we are closing Cheap Calls to Mobiles for the foreseeable future. We thank all our customers for the loyal support they have given us, and hope we have saved you a small fortune when calling mobiles.

Please keep an eye on our website for information on other great new services we are working on.
