What is a VoIP Number?
A VoIP number is a virtual phone that uses the internet to make and receive calls. Unlike traditional phone lines that rely on copper wires, Virtual phone technology transmits voice data as digital packets over the Internet.
This means you can make phone calls from anywhere with an internet connection using a computer, smartphone, or dedicated virtual phone.
However, Air Landline doesn’t need an internet connection, App, or desk phone, as we divert incoming calls to your actual mobile number for free.
This ensures high-quality calls as you don’t rely on internet/4G/5G connection.
Virtual numbers offer users flexibility and portability, making them ideal for businesses and individuals needing reliable and cost-effective communication solutions.
How Does VoIP Work?
VoIP technology converts your voice into digital data and transmits it over the Internet.
When you make a call, your voice is converted into data packets that travel over the Internet to the recipient.
Virtual phone devices convert data packets into audible sound in real time, allowing for clear and seamless conversations.
A VoIP telephone number allows you to make and receive calls over the Internet, eliminating the need for costly landlines and physical infrastructure.

Examples of Different VoIP Numbers
Here are examples of different virtual numbers commonly used in the UK, each tailored to specific needs:
- Geographic VoIP Numbers (01/02 Area Codes)
Geographic/ local virtual phone numbers start with 01 or 02 and are allocated to specific cities or regions in the United Kingdom. This helps businesses establish a local identity and connect with customers in target markets.
Additionally, local numbers can enhance credibility and trust with local customers. Below are examples of different area codes in the UK.

- Non-Geographic VoIP Numbers (03 Numbers)
Numbers starting with 03 are non-geographic and ideal for organisations seeking a nationwide presence without a regional association.
For example, customer service teams often use a 0330 number. These numbers offer a cost-effective way for clients to reach you.

Freephone virtual numbers are free for callers to dial, making them perfect for customer-focused businesses. For example, an 0800 number like 0800 987 6543 is often used for sales hotlines or support services.
- Premium Rate VoIP Numbers (084/087)
Starting with 084 or 087, these numbers charge callers a premium rate and are typically used for services like technical support or information lines.
For instance, an 0845 number like 0845 321 7654 generates revenue while providing specialist services.
- Mobile-Style VoIP Numbers (07)
Numbers beginning with 07 mimic standard mobile numbers but operate over the internet.
For example, a number like 07700 900 123 is a great option for professionals who want the mobility of a mobile number combined with its flexibility.
