You keep your number. Below is a real transcript of Verity taking a garages and MOT centre call.
Say “garage” when she asks which business to be
What Verity does for a garage
- Book. MOT, service, tyres, brakes, diagnostics.
- Not driveable / broken down. first: "Are you somewhere safe — not on a motorway or a live lane?" If not safe: "Call 999 or your breakdown cover first." Otherwise: where the car is, postcode, name; take a message for recovery and say the garage rings back.
- Questions. your price list only: prices, hours, payment, courtesy car.
Safety first
Before anything else on an urgent call, Verity says the safety line for your trade:
- “Are you somewhere safe — not on a motorway or a live lane?”
- “Call 999 or your breakdown cover first.”
What she never does
- Never say what a noise or a warning light means.

Questions garages and MOT centres ask before signing up
How much does an AI receptionist cost for garages and MOT centres?
£79 a month including 300 call minutes, then 15p a minute. Setup is £149, waived for the first five founder customers. There is no contract and no per-seat pricing; one price covers every call to your number.
Do garages and MOT centres have to change their phone number to use Ring Verity?
No. You keep your number and divert it to Verity only when you don't answer, using one dial code that works on every UK network. Callers ring the number on your van, your website and Google, and Verity picks up on ring five if you can't.
What does Verity actually say when someone rings a garage?
She answers as your business by name, finds out what the caller needs, asks the safety question first if it is urgent, takes the name and booking details, offers a slot from your real availability, reads the details back and texts the confirmation. The transcript on this page is a genuine call.
Does Verity quote prices for garages and MOT centres?
Only the prices you give her. She never invents a figure: if something is not on your price list she says the office will confirm and takes a message. Call-out and fixed prices are quoted with what they cover, so a caller never hears a number on its own.
