It's very quick and simple:
Choose your type of Pocket Landline, complete the appropriate form and we’ll do the rest!

We have three types:
One 2 One - the most popular by far! Choose an area code, we allocate you a number, and direct it to your chosen number. It can be a mobile number or even another landline.
One 2 Many - you can receive your Pocket Landline calls on more than one number. So you could have 2 or more recipients - giving you more chances of answering that call.
Many 2 One - this gives you more than one landline number in different area codes, all directed to your one mobile. Great for people who want to have a presence in more than one town.
