How to get a free virtual phone number in the UK (2026)

Free2026-05-296 min readBy Silux Call team

A genuinely free UK virtual number — no card, no line rental, no copper line. Here is exactly what you get for £0 and where the limits sit.

You can get a real UK phone number for £0 with no card on the Silux Call 14-day free trial. It is a proper UK geographic virtual number that rings on an app, desk phone or mobile, with no copper line and no line rental.

What "free" actually includes

  • One UK number for 14 days, free, allocated at random.
  • Free voicemail-to-email with transcripts.
  • Free call forwarding/divert to your mobile.
  • 30 outbound UK minutes; inbound is unlimited.

Where the limits are (honestly)

The free trial is one user with 30 outbound minutes for 14 days. After that, Entry is £4.75 per user per month with 2,000 outbound UK minutes and you choose your own number. Your first number is included with any plan; extra numbers are £5.99/month.

How to set it up

  1. Register for the 14-day free trial — no card.
  2. Pick a local area code (e.g. an
  3. 020 London number
  4. or
  5. 0161 Manchester number
  6. ).
  7. Install the app on your phone or open the browser softphone.
  8. Set voicemail and call-divert rules. Done.

Because it is VoIP, your free virtual number already survives the 2027 PSTN switch-off — unlike the copper line it replaces.
