AllDayPA publishes three tiers on alldaypa.co.uk (verified 15 May 2026, GBP/mo): From £90/mo (80 minutes included, basic telephone answering with trained UK operators), From £210/mo (150 minutes, advanced — adds CRM integration), and an 'Unlimited' tariff at ~£3/day (fair-usage 200 calls/mo + 30 calls per additional person). Overage £1/min beyond included. Phone: UK 0333 service number; client-number inclusion not detailed. Includes 'Virtual Office App'. UK-only (Manchester HQ), English assumed (not explicitly stated). 100% human, 24/7. Trial policy not publicly stated. Skaala Essential is 299 NOK/mo (50 minutes, AI receptionist, local number, booking, CRM, Stripe payments) and Business is 1,499 NOK/mo; in the US, Skaala starts at $29/mo.
Apples-to-apples on 80 minutes: AllDayPA £90/mo (~$110 at current rates) vs Skaala Essential $29 (50 min, AI) — Skaala is cheaper but 30 fewer minutes and AI rather than human. For 80+ min of live human answering in English in the UK, AllDayPA is a strong fit; for AI with integrated suite, Skaala wins on price and breadth.
