03 Numbers

Ofcom, the UK communications regulator, have released the new 03 number range. These numbers are for UK businesses, charities and the public sector, that require a national presence, but do not want to charge customers for contacting them.

How 03 numbers work

When your customer calls your 03 number his call is automatically (and instantly) redirected to whichever phone number you have given us. You can change this 'destination' number as often as you want, for free. So even if you move office or you simply want the calls redirected to another phone for a short period, your 03 number stays the same.

What does it cost to call an 03 number?

Calling an 03 number costs the same as dialling a 'standard' 01 or 02 STD number, and are included within the monthly minute bundles offered by mobile operators (e.g. unlike calls to 08 numbers, which normally are charged at a higher premium from a mobile phone).

No extra lines to rent or equipment to buy

Rest assured that when you buy a Numbersales.com 03 number, there is absolutely no requirement for extra phone lines or any equipment whatsoever. We simply divert the incoming calls to an existing number of your choice. Your phone will continue to receive calls on its original number as usual as well as the incoming 03 calls, and can be used to make outgoing calls as normal.

Turn your 03 number in to a 'virtual office'

You can now add our virtual office services to your Numbersales.com 03 number to offer your customers an even better service. Virtual Receptionist gives them a list of options to key eg to be put through to a a specific department, Divert Plan automatically redirects their calls to a secondary number if the main destination is busy or is not answered, and Time/Day Plan diverts incoming calls to a different number at specific times eg in the evening and at weekends.

Additional virtual office services include Zone Plan (to manage incoming calls by their town of origin), Call Queuing and Voicemail to Email. Click here to find out more.
