How Call Forwarding / Call Diverts work

How UK Numbers work

Choose a Local Area, Geographic UK Number

UK Local case study
 "Local offices" help plumber prosper

Our client, an ambitious young plumbing company based in Derby, was eager to win more business outside the immediate Derby area. They had already tried adverising in the local papers for nearby Matlock, Ashbourne and Burton-on-Trent, but the response was disappointing compared to results from ads placed in the Derby Evening Telegraph.

The challenge

Making ads placed in neighbouring papers as effective as ads placed in Derby's local paper.

The solution

When looking for a plumber people tend to call local plumbers first. By obtaining local numbers for neighbouring areas (and diverting them all to the same sales line), the plumber was able to increase the effectiveness of its yellow pages advertisng, as well as increasing response form 'local' newspaper ads.

Business benefits

  • Business from Matlock, Ashbourne and Burton-on-Trent quickly increased
  • Customers no longer worry about slow call-out times before ringing
  • Callers get the impression they are dealing with a local company.

UK Local: executive summary

UK Local Area Geographic Phone Numbers
UK Virtual Office Phone Number Video


Range: 01 and 02 Geographic numbers from over 600 area codes

Cost to call: 'Not much' from BT landlines (it depends on what price plans the caller is on). When calling from UK mobiles it's usually taken from inclusive minutes.

Image: Indicates a local organisation or a national organisation that is not trying to puff itself up.

Cost of ownership: The owner pays setup and regular rental fees. Call fees will apply on top, but may be very low for UK landline or VOIP termination.
dmClub 020-7 numbers cost between 1.0 and 1.25 ppmppm: pence per minute (ex VAT) to divert to UK landlines. Fowarding to VOIP is done without charge resulting in a fixed cost service

International accessibility: Perfect.

 

Regulatory issues: No special issues.

Mobile accessibility: Very good. Pricing of calls from mobiles to UK geographic numbers are one of the big attractions of the range.

Typical Applications: Very general purpose. Geographic numbers are very popular, with public suspicion over misuse of the 08 number ranges. Locally orientated businesses such as minicabs, builders and hairdressers can appear closer and attract more interest by having the same area code as their customers.
With calls from mobiles being mostly without charge, geographic numbers (particularly Gold ones) are arguably 'the new 0800!'

Also consider...


Choose a gold number to escape the 'provincial' image that many associate with geographic numbers (with the exception of 020 London numbers and other major cities)

A Fax Number, perhaps the next number along, to maintain consistency on your business card/notepaper.

0800 numbers may be more appropriate if you're fighting for business as they're cheaper and may reflect a business with nationwide aspirations

020-7 London numbers share the economics of all geographic numbers but can appear more prestigious

Getting additional numbers from adjacent area codes. Locally orientated businesses can use them to expand their business into nearby areas. Particularly useful when you're on the edge of two or more areas.

This information is intended to be generally relevant to 020-7 numbers from whoever they are purchased. Highlighted points are specific to dmClub.
