UK virtual business number
A UK virtual business number on the phone you already use
Choose a local, mobile, or national UK number. Take calls and texts in the app, keep your personal mobile private, and add extra cover only if you want it. From £12.99/mo.
Why this setup works
Look local, work anywhere
A 01, 02, 03, or 07 number on invoices, Google Business, and your website. Calls follow you on your existing phone.
Not just a forwarding trick
Outbound calls and two-way SMS use the business number. Customers see the same line they dialled.
Keep your personal mobile private
Put the virtual number on ads and directories. Your private number stays off Checkatrade, leaflets, and WhatsApp groups.
Room to grow
Start with the line. Add business hours, missed-call SMS, recording, or an AI receptionist without changing number.
How it works
Pick a UK number
Sign up on the web, choose a local, mobile, or national number, and start a 7-day trial.
Use it in the app
Download iOS or Android. Make and receive calls and SMS from the business line, not your personal SIM.
Add cover later
Keep Starter if you just need the number. Move to Pro or AI Receptionist when you want auto texts or live answering.
Which plan you actually need
A virtual number with calls, SMS, and voicemail starts on Starter at £12.99/mo. Missed-call texts and recording are on Pro. Live AI answering is the AI Receptionist plan.

- What is a UK virtual business number?
- It is a real UK phone number that rings an app instead of a desk phone or a second SIM. You get a local, mobile, or national number, then take calls and texts on the phone you already carry.
- Do I need a new handset or SIM?
- No. Any Number Anywhere runs on your existing iPhone or Android. The business number lives in the app and the web dashboard.
- Can I keep a number I already advertise?
- Yes. Forward that line into ANA without porting, or use a new ANA number on new marketing. See the call forwarding guide for setup.
- How much does a virtual business number cost?
- Starter is £12.99/mo for the number, calls, SMS, and voicemail. Every plan has a 7-day free trial. Cancel before day 7 and you pay nothing.
