Understanding Your Numbers

• Virtual landline number — the number your customers dial (e.g., 0204 5380 688)
• Forwarding number — the mobile or landline that receives the redirected calls

⚠️ Important: Make sure you share your virtual landline number with customers, not your forwarding number.

Troubleshooting Call Forwarding

• Make sure you’re calling the virtual landline number, not the forwarding number
• You cannot test by calling the virtual number from the same phone it forwards to — use a different phone
• If calls ring or reach voicemail on the forwarding handset, forwarding is working
• Turn off call screening on the forwarding handset and test again
• If calls still don’t connect, the virtual landline may need to be reactivated

Common Questions

Can I change my forwarding number at any time?

Yes. Update it from the Customer Portal whenever needed.

My calls aren’t forwarding — what should I check?

First confirm you’re dialling the virtual landline number, not the forwarding number. Then check call screening settings on your handset.

Can I forward to an international number?
