What is a Virtual Landline Number?

A virtual phone number allows your business to have a professional UK landline without installing a physical telephone line. These cloud-based numbers can forward calls to your mobile, office phone, or VoIP system and are ideal for remote teams, tradespeople, and growing businesses.

Advertise a virtual landline in areas where you want to attract new customers or make your business look more professional. Research shows that customers are four times more likely to answer a local number opposed to a mobile.

How Does A Virtual Landline Work?

When somebody dials your virtual landline, their call gets seamlessly diverted to you. You control where the calls divert to. It can be as simple as one number, or groups of multiple numbers in sequence or all together.

You can record your calls and play welcome messages to your callers, dependant on your chosen package.

Can I Keep My Existing Number?

You can bring any existing phone numbers you have with you, and them convert them to virtual landlines, by "porting" them in for FREE.
