UK DID Numbers (Direct Inbound Dialing Numbers) - Virtual Numbers that forward to existing phones

A DID number is a number that forwards calls to an existing phone line. They are useful for people that would like a number in an area or country without having to be physically present. For example you could forward a London UK Area code 0207 number to an existing phone line in the UK or outside of the UK at reasonable rates without even being there. This enables you to target clients that would typically dial for services in their own area code. You can choose the UK area code and number that you would like for your DID number, or choose a non-geographic DID number such as 0800, 0844, 0845, 0870, 0871 DID numbers if you want to target the UK nationwide. Personal or mobile "follow me" numbers are also available for people on the move. You can change the diverts to "follow you around" so you only need to give out one number and your clients can reach you anywhere.

DID Number phone calls can be forwarded to most landlines and mobile phones in the UK as well as phone lines around the world using traditional PSTN and VoIP technology. There is no need to rent another line with a DID UK number; you simply enter the existing phone that you would like the calls to be forwarded to. You can login and change the destination number that the calls are routed to any time online. You can therefore keep your DID number if you move offices by changing the routing destination, or if you are away simply divert the number to the place you are staying.
