For our support queue overflow and if no-one's in the office, we use Servcorp to answer our 0800.  They answer with our company name, and can redirect the call or take a message based on a whole stack of rules we've given them.  A stock standard voicemail system won't work as we still want the call answered by a human.

Having just received their last rather large bill, I'm keen to explore some alternatives.  Must be based in NZ. 

Suggestions?

My old boss runs a small business and uses a similar service that you described.  He seems quite happy with them.  I've flicked him an email asking for the name, so I'll let you know soon. :)

Quite a few of our clients use these guys:

They all seem happy with the service.
They are based in Whangarei.




Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

haha not helpful to your OP, but in a previous role we used Servecorp and were always looking forward to the next invoice to see what amazingly excessive charges they could come up with this time around :D

I actually find Regus charge considerably less than Servcorp. I got quotes from both of them for office space in the CBD (Brisbane) and Regus charged a whopping four times less than Servcorp.
