What is a UK Virtual Phone Number?

A UK virtual phone number is a cloud based 11 digit phone number that isn’t associated to a phone line or sim card. It can be used to do almost everything a normal sim card number can do but it uses wifi over cellur network. It is geographically independent and can be used to call international numbers seamlessly.

UK Virtual number uses VoIP technology which gives it the advantage of multi-device accessibility, low call rates, global calling, and no hard ware costs. This make it the most optimal choice for businesses and international travellers.

How Does a UK virtual phone number work?

United Kingdom’s virtual phone number works independently, solely relying on an internet connection for its services. It routes both inbound calls, outbound and conference calls over the Internet rather than using telephone phone lines like copper cables, aluminum and aluminum alloys.

When you call a UK virtual number, your voice is converted to digital data packs and transmitted instantly over an IP network.

These data packs are then routed to recipients through the internet and converted back to audio signals using a digital-to-analog conversion process. This is how the recipients hear your voice in real-time just as in normal phone calls
