VoIP and Mobile

Types of number

We have a wide range of UK telephone numbers available, including local numbers in every area code, special numbers (e.g. free phone, or local rate), UK wide (03 & 055) numbers, and mobile numbers. We also have a large number of easy-to-remember phone numbers available - these are ideal for taxi firms, flower shops and other types of businesses that require a memorable phone number.

This page explains the types of numbers we have available and their costs.

Number Grade

We grade our numbers from Tin through to Taxi. The grade depends on how nice the number is based on an algorithm. If you port in a number, we grade it bronze even if it is a nice number.

Most numbers are tin or bronze, and have a low cost for them. Silver numbers cost a little more, gold and platinum numbers even more.

Charges for numbers are made in advance for a whole billing period (depends on your chosen billing cycle) and not refunded if numbers are ceased during the period already billed.

We can provide 0800 numbers that are free for people to call you on.

You will then have a charge for any incoming calls to that number. The cost can depend on whether the call is from a landline, mobile, or payphone..

Some times you don't want to use the number right away. This is usually for companies that want to have some numbers for staff phones, but want to reserve a larger block so they can activate more numbers later as they need. This keeps all of the numbers together in a block. You can reserve numbers when ordering blocks of 10 or more, and then activate individual numbers as an when. There is a smaller on-going monthly charge for reserved numbers.

You can only reserve our "tin/bronze" numbers. Silver and gold numbers cannot be reserved. If you want to reserve a block of numbers that contains a silver or gold number you will have to activate that number whilst reserving the rest. When activating a number there is no refund of the reservation fee which is charged in advance to the end of your billing period.

We are able to provide a number in every UK area code which can then be routed to your own IP PBX or forwarded to your existing phone number. Contact us for more details.

Pick your number

When picking a number you have a lot of choice

  • First, you tell us what area code you want the number to be in. If your choice is not clear we offer a list of areas. You can also pick more than one area to pick sets of similar numbers in several areas at once.
  • You tell us if you want to consider only bronze, or silver and gold as well.
  • You can pick single numbers or a pair of numbers, and can even say a sequence of up to 3 digits that you want to appear in the numbers
  • You can ask to reserve a block of 10, 20, 50 or 100 numbers in an area. Again, you say if you want to consider silver or gold numbers being in the block or not. If the block has silver or gold numbers these are activated immediately. The rest of the block remains reserved and you can activate as and when you need via our control pages.
  • You can even ask for a pair of adjacent numbers if you wish.

How to use

SIP Phone

A SIP phone will use your internet connection to make and receive calls. We can provide you with a compatible phone, configured for your number, or you may use your own phone or SIP software on your computer.

Your own PBX

Using your own SIP PBX, we can route calls to you and you can make calls out via our service.

Call forwarding

An alternative to using a SIP phone or PBX is that we simply forward incoming calls to your existing number (or numbers). This negates the need for you to have any special equipment. Calls we forward to you are charged at our normal rate for calling your number from our service. You can use the price checker below to see what we charge for calling.
