Second business number
A second phone number for work, on your existing phone
Stop giving customers your personal mobile. Run a dedicated business line for calls and texts, set hours when you want them, and leave evenings alone. From £12.99/mo.
Why this setup works
One phone, two lives
Work calls and SMS sit in a separate inbox. You are not mixing job leads with family chats.
Switch off without disappearing
Hours and routing mean the line can still take a message or book a slot after you stop for the day.
Same number outbound
When you call or text a customer back, they see the business number, not your private mobile.
Better than a second SIM
No extra handset, no swapping trays. The number lives in the app and works on wifi or mobile data.
How it works
Get the work number
Choose a UK local, mobile, or national number in checkout. Trial is 7 days on every plan.
Put it everywhere public
Use it on your website, van, invoices, and ads. Your personal mobile stays off those surfaces.
Decide when work rings
On Pro, set business hours so evenings and weekends go to voicemail, a text-back, or AI cover.
Which plan you actually need
The second number itself is Starter at £12.99/mo. Business hours, missed-call auto-reply, and call recording are Pro. A live AI receptionist is the top plan.

- Is this a second SIM or a second phone?
- Neither. It is a second number in an app on the phone you already own. You do not need another handset or a second contract with a mobile network.
- Will customers see my personal number when I call them?
- No. Outbound calls and SMS from the app use your ANA business number, so the customer sees the same line they already have.
- Can I stop work calls after hours?
- Yes on Pro. Set business hours so the line does not ring your pocket all evening. Callers can get voicemail, an automatic text, or AI cover on the top plan.
- What does a second business number cost?
- Starter is £12.99/mo. That is the right plan if you mainly want a separate work line for calls, SMS, and voicemail.
