I use TTNC. You can get a geographical number anywhere in the UK and can link it to either a mobile or a home phone. Also you can edit what number you have it linked to at any time.

but you failed to answer the all important question, Whats it cost bud ?

TizWoz are you asking me sorry?
It costs £25.00 per number but currently they are running an offer where you can get 2 numbers for £25.00. It may be steep but i believe avoids all the hassle of using the other providers...
with these other providers is it easy to switch the number in which the calls are diverted to for example?

guys i have been on the phone all week with city numbers, soho66, tossable digits.. and the best one is soho66. Citynumbers told me that paypal system can now identify that its a virtual number.. I've since signed up with soho66 and everything works fine. You can purchase bulk numbers as well

By the way soho66 numbers cost only £2. For bulk numbers of 5 you pay £9. You can top up minimum £5 to redirect your calls to mobile or landline (cheaper). Hope this helps

ive not really looked at soho 66, is the interface easy to use? and dont you need another programme along with it to receive the calls?
thanks

well the site is not that easy to understand in lay man terms but I called them.. If you want a single number just click on single voip and you register. you choose your number and you load money on. Its that easy. i use this number just for paypal verification. You don't need any other programs if its just for the phone call. i bought 6 numbers from them plus a top up of £5 all under £20. Rerouted the number tomy landline and it works. I asked someone to call me on one number and it works fine.. all my heartache are solved!

but is this mobile number permanatly routed to your actualy phone so you can take calls from paypal/ebay if they want to get in touch? Or is it only good for one time verification?

hi its not a mobile number you get an actual telephone number for the location that you choose. you can forward the calls to any landline or mobile number and it can be used for paypal/ebay verification. if you want to cancel the services after that its up to you or you can keep it running.. thanks

Hi ETS

What is the ongoing monthly costs that you have to pay?

Thanks

Try Net Telco - there are no monthly costs and the set up rate is lower too.

It works out at £4 per number (for 3 free numbers with min £12 top up) and that is all you have to pay unless ebay call you non-stop.

Also there is another I used - Localphone I think which is 75p set up and then 75p per month.

Saves a lot in the long term
