Metal Distribution Business Takes Control of Mobile Estate with Fusion’s Smarter Approach

Background

The Why/Pain Points

As a leading stockist and distributor of specialist metals to the aerospace, defence, and engineering sectors, this UK-based company operates across multiple sites and handles complex, high-value supply chains.  Reliable communication is essential, not just for internal efficiency, but for service accountability and compliance.

The business had been with its previous mobile provider for over four years and was generally satisfied.  But as part of a regular review process, Compliance Manager Craig Wilson began benchmarking performance and pricing.  That’s when the cracks began to show:

Limited control

Adding lines or adjusting spend caps required logging tickets and waiting days for responses

Disjointed systems

Craig managed four different EE accounts after repeated access issues and platform crashes

Slow, impersonal support

After a trusted account manager left, queries took weeks to be acknowledged

Misleading billing

Accessing invoices or usage data was time-consuming and inconsistent

"I just needed control. A platform I could log into, make a change, and be done in two minutes, not have a five-day back-and-forth."

The How: Solution
by Fusion Communications

Craig was introduced to Fusion Communications and Stephen, who quickly made an impression.  Rather than push a solution, Stephen took the time to understand Craig’s priorities, flexibility, visibility, and straightforward billing, and offered tailored advice, even when it didn’t favour Fusion’s proposal.

Despite not actively looking to switch, Craig was reassured by Stephen’s honesty and attention to detail, especially when reviewing competitors.

A smooth, well-timed rollout followed, with all devices delivered and deployed without disruption. Fusion’s team remained responsive throughout.

“There was a cheaper option, but I didn’t trust it. Stephen showed me what to look for and where others buried the real costs.”

Unless Fusion does something very stupid, or doubles my prices, I’m not going anywhere.

Stephen even came out to see me after the deal was done. No schmoozing, just genuine support.

It’s been amazing. Everything works. It’s easy. I don’t need to chase anyone. I’m in control.
