Firstcall 24/7 to Transfer to Doro

On Monday 1st February 2021, we transferred our Firstcall 24/7 Telecare Service to Doro. Doro are a digital technology provider who develop services and products that enable people to live independent and fulfilling lives.

The move is taking place due to strong advances in digital technology where, with the support provided by the Doro network, Firstcall customers will be able to benefit first-hand from these improvements. The decision to transfer was not taken lightly, and it was very important that we found a partner who would continue to provide the high-quality services that our Firstcall customers have become accustomed to. 

Following a rigorous selection process, Doro were chosen and much work by both companies has taken place to ensure that the change will be as smooth and seamless as possible. We are pleased to confirm that many of our Firstcall colleagues will be joining Doro, meaning existing customers will not notice a difference to the current service that they receive and will continue to see the same familiar faces.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service team on 01283 528528 who will be more than happy to speak to you about the transfer.
