UK Personal Numbers for Free International Call For Free

When we posted about Ether, there were huge number of people who had no idea about Whats a Personal Number. We hope this tutorial helps you in understanding how to use a personal account number to make free international calls and completely free call forwarding.

In UK, There are various types of telephone numbers which can be alloted by providers which include VOIP numbers or UK personal numbers mostly starting with 070. There are various Premium Rate services which also offers 0870 numbers but avoid them cause the cost is enormous when you call those numbers. Lets stick to the 070 Personal Phone numbers.

Since 070 phone numbers are mainly for the purpose of anonymity, they can be forwarded anywhere in the world for FREE. That means if anyone calls up your Personal number, they can reach whatever number you set as per the call forwarding rules in your account. This gives you totally free international call forwarding facility.

Lets see how we can use it to make totally free international calls.

1) Get yourself a free UK Personal number.

Option A: UK Number
Option B: UKnumber4U

There are many more services like these, they all work the same.

2) Remember always get a number starting with 070. AVOID 0870 or 0840 numbers.
3) Now Login to your Control Panel and change call forwarding Settings.
4) Here you need to put the number you want the call to be forwarded to whenever someone calls this UK personal number. Lets assume you set it to India Mobile (+91 9992125121). So wherenever someone calls up your UK personal number, the call will be automatically forwarded to your India Mobile. This service is absolutely FREE.

So where the catch?

The Person who is going to call you must bear the cost associated with the service. Typically a 070 number call might cost your around 20 Pence (GBP) to 50 Pence (GBP) per minute, so its costly.

Now a smart way to save that hefty Price.

You can use one of the VOIP service to make calls to these numbers and pay only a few cents or even Make Free Calls. This way you will be connected to UK personal number for Free or cheap calling rate and call forwarding will anyways work for you for FREE.

You can try this hack with Ether, which lets you use UK Personal number and actually makes a call to the number for FREE. AdPhone also works well with UK personal number however each call is limited to 2 minutes only. You can call back again after 10 minutes.

Let us know if you manage to make free international calls with this workaround.
