What is a UK virtual mobile number?

A virtual mobile number is a digital phone number that operates independently of traditional SIM cards and mobile networks, allowing users to make and receive calls using a UK-based number from anywhere in the world. These numbers are routed through the internet using VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) technology, which translates voice calls into data packets and transmits them over the internet. Ideal for expatriates, travelers, and businesses with international clients, virtual UK mobile numbers offer a cost-effective way to maintain a local presence in the UK without the need for a physical line or handset in the country.

Designed specifically for expats, and those wanting a virtual uk number for international use. Two numbers, one phone, with unlimited calls to UK numbers.

Our plans are not intended for cold-calling or power dialing. Our Unlimited Plan includes unlimited minutes, but the number of calls is subject to a fair usage policy. On our Unlimited Plan, if you make more than 100 calls/day, 300 calls/week or 600 calls/month your account will be limited. Further limits apply to free trials. We find that individuals are not impacted by these limits. Similar limits apply to SMS*, to help prevent spamming. If we find that your use is excessive we will contact you to discuss a solution.

*250 parts per month – longer SMSs may be composed of multiple parts
