Business in Hampshire
Hampshire has two ports, a corporate corridor and a cathedral city, and they want entirely different things. Southampton is the busiest cruise terminal in Europe with freight, marine engineering and customs businesses working to sailings; Portsmouth is a naval city on an island with a defence supply chain and the tightest premises in the county; Basingstoke is a planned town of corporate offices and distribution on the M3; and Winchester is small professional practices in period buildings. Two directors cover it between them.

Hampshire — common questions
Hampshire is covered from two directions. Who would we actually deal with?
It depends where you are: the north of the county around Basingstoke and Farnborough is worked from Windsor, the south coast from Worthing. Either way it is one named person rather than a queue, and you are told which at the outset rather than discovering it. Hampshire is one of the few counties where real coverage genuinely comes from two bases.
We run a marine business on the Solent at Southampton or Portsmouth. Anything specific?
The pattern more than the technology: work arrives with vessels rather than with the working day, so routing has to reflect a rota and the fallback has to reach somebody actually on duty. Sites are also frequently a mix of office, quayside and yard, and covering the last two is a survey job rather than an office Wi-Fi job.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
We work across Hampshire generally, and we have pages for Basingstoke, Southampton, Portsmouth, Winchester, Farnborough, Eastleigh and Fareham because those are the places we are most often in. Nick Thomas is based in Worthing and covers the county. If your town is not listed it does not mean we cannot help — it means nobody has written that page yet, so ring and ask.
Who would I actually be dealing with in Hampshire?
Nick Thomas, directly, on 01903 968831. Not an account queue and not a different person each time. Behind that sits the Southern Communications Group — the carrier relationships, the buying power and a support desk that runs around the clock — so a small business in Hampshire is priced inside a national account while dealing with someone local.
What does SCG Solutions do for businesses in Hampshire?
Cloud telephony and Microsoft Teams calling, business internet from broadband to leased lines, business mobiles across every major UK network, and network security — with IT support, cloud hosting and business continuity behind them. What that looks like in practice varies a lot across Hampshire, which is why each town has its own page rather than one county-wide answer.
We have sites in more than one Hampshire town. Can that be one system?
Yes, and it is usually cheaper as well as simpler. One cloud phone system spans every site with internal dialling between them, one bill rather than several, and calls that can be answered at whichever site has someone free. Multi-site is the case where the group buying power tells most, because you are pricing several connections and licence counts at once rather than one.
The 2027 switch-off affects Hampshire too. Every analogue and ISDN line in the UK stops working in January 2027. If you are not sure what that means for your lines, the detail is worth ten minutes.
