Stay connected anywhere, with a Pocket Landline Number

A pocket landline gives you the presence of a local landline number while keeping you completely mobile. Whether you’re working from home, on the move, or running your business remotely, incoming calls are forwarded directly to your mobile, no cables, no installation, just instant flexibility.

Pocket Landline Numbers from Number People give you all the benefits of a traditional landline, without the wires, hardware, or fixed location. These cloud-based numbers let you choose any UK area code and receive calls straight to your mobile, landline, VoIP, or even multiple devices at once.

Whether you’re running a small business, freelancing, or just want a second number to keep things separate, a Pocket Landline gives you a professional presence that fits in your pocket. You can pick a number from any UK town or city, or opt for a national 03, 0800 or 0843 number – whatever suits your needs.

Once you’ve chosen your Pocket Landline Number, just decide where you want the calls to go. You can forward calls to your mobile, home phone, VoIP app, or up to 10 different destinations. You’ll never miss a call – and you don’t need to stay in one place to stay in touch.

Managing your Pocket Landline is simple. Use our online portal to update your call settings, add more numbers, or change destinations anytime. Numbers start from just £2/month and include 60 free UK call minutes (worth £2.50). You can also add more users for £2.50/month each, and each one comes with their own 60-minute bundle.

Need more minutes? Upgrade to our Unlimited Bundle for just £10/month – perfect if you’re making lots of calls, or want to forward calls without worrying about costs.

Want to make outbound calls using your Pocket Landline Number? No problem, just add VoIP/SIP and you can make and receive calls over the internet, displaying your Pocket Landline Number as your caller ID.

With Pocket Landline Numbers, you stay flexible, professional, and in control – all from your mobile. It’s the landline, reinvented for modern life.

Why choose a Number People Virtual Phone Number?

Five Stars

Here’s what our customers think...

The Number People - Professor

Excellent all round - Highly recommended

Easy to use online portal, excellent customer service while being the cheapest provider I have found for VoIP number to use for my startup business.  I like that as my business grows the upgrade options are reasonable and remain affordable.  I would highly recommend Number People.

Really Excellent

Fast, friendly and professional. The easiest way of keeping your landline number active when switching to a wifi-only provider.  Highly recommended!

I wouldn't consider another provider

Been utilising numberpeople.co.uk reliably for about 3 years across circa 30 phone numbers.  Fees do quite add up some months but still provide value.  Their services are a utility and I wouldn't consider another provider.

First Class Service

Professional, prompt and flexible.  In a crowded market, the Number People really stood out.  Although we've only experienced set up so far, we would unhesitatingly recommend them.
