Virtual Phone Line

Get a Virtual phone line for just £1 per month with your first month free!

Get Started

Virtual phone lines are a way of being able to make and receive calls without having to install any physical BT lines. They offer huge flexibility as lines are not ties to a particular location, meaning that you take your virtual phone line with you wherever you go and stay connected to your business or personal calls.

Number People automatically give you a virtual phone line when you get your first number from us and we give you the first month free allowing you to test it out yourself – this means that you can receive calls with no call forwarding charges, and also make outbound calls presenting your new Number People telephone number as your outbound caller ID.

If your happy with your new virtual phone line, then after your first free month, you will just pay £1 per month per line. If you would prefer not to use it then you can simple cancel it yourself via the customer portal.

So, how does a virtual phone line from Number People work?

When you activate your free account with Number People, we automatically activate your telephone number and forward calls to your specified telephone number. We also activate a VoIP/SIP user FREE for the first month, and add this to the call forwarding group, so you can receive calls on either the destination phone number, VoIP/SIP, or both.

This VOIP/SIP Extension is your virtual phone line and can be used on multiple devices;

  • A SIP / VOIP enabled phone can be programmed to use with our accounts meaning that if you want to use it in a home or office setting then it’s just like using a normal phone for staff or family members, so it would be a very familiar “normal” experience to use the phones for outgoing and incoming calls.
  • As a mobile app – Simply install the Zoiper softphone app on your mobile phone and then scan a QR code we give you to instantly set up a softphone extension on your mobile phone. Your outgoing and/or incoming calls can then be made via the application (bypassing any call forwarding charges to your mobile)
  • A standard phone can be used alongside an ATA box (Analogue Telephone Adapter) to enable the phone to be used with VoIP / SIP. Once the ATA box has been provisioned, the phone can then be used to make and receive calls using your new virtual phone number.
  • On a PC or laptop – By simply installing a softphone app on your PC or laptop, you can use that equipment to make and receive calls. This would also require a headset with a microphone to use for the calls (like you would do for Skype)
  • SIP Trunks Lots of larger business use SIP trunks connected to their phone systems to expand lines, add more users and enhance flexibility to their existing systems. If your business has a phone system which can be expanded using SIP Trunks (an IP PBX) then our VOIP / SIP extensions can be programmed as SIP Trunks to make an receive calls via your existing business phone system, meaning that you don’t have to replace any existing hardware equipment.
