// your mobile is the phone
A local, 07 mobile, 0800 or 03 business number that rings the phone you already carry. When transcription is switched on, each voicemail or receptionist message arrives as a card: what they wanted, how urgent, what to do next.
It can't dial 999. It can tell you what the caller wanted. Your mobile stays your phone.

// in one line
A UK virtual phone number is a real local city, 07 mobile, 0800 or 03 number that is not tied to a SIM or physical line. Calls forward to your mobile, landline or team phone, so you can run a professional business line from the phone you already own. LineHQ is deliberately not a phone system: your mobile stays the phone, and LineHQ is the number that remembers every call — recording, voicemail-to-email, a virtual receptionist and a free AI call card for transcribed voicemails and messages, from £4.99/mo with no contract.
Does it ring my own mobile?
Yes — basic forwarding rings your existing phone. The Android app and SIP devices are optional when you want app ringing or outbound calling with Professional Calling.
How much does it cost?
Packages start at £4.99/mo with no contract — that covers number rental and voicemail allowance: 300 minutes on local/03 numbers, or 50 minutes on UK 07 mobile numbers. Forwarded calls are pay-as-you-go at 5p/min, or bundled into a monthly allowance on the plans above.
How quickly can I get one?
New numbers can be live in minutes, and you can keep your existing number by porting it in for free.
// 01 — the call card
When voicemail or receptionist-message transcription is switched on, each completed transcript is written up as a card — the gist, the caller's mood, how urgent it is, and what to do next — and the card is what lands in your inbox, not a two-minute recording to replay. Recorded calls get the same treatment when you transcribe them. It all happens in-house, on our own UK servers: your calls are never sent to a third-party AI service. The AI summary is free on every package; transcription minutes use your plan allowance first, then wallet credit.

UK customers won’t try again if a business doesn’t answer the first time — so an unanswered call is often a lost sale.1

// 07 — questions
A virtual number is a real UK phone number — local city numbers like 020 or 0161, 07 mobile numbers, freephone 0800 or national 03 — that isn't tied to a physical line. Calls to it are forwarded to any phone you choose: your mobile, your desk, or the whole team.
Most people start with a brand-new number — pick a local, 07 mobile, 0800 or 03 line and it's yours, with nothing to arrange with anyone else. If you'd rather keep a number your customers already know, porting one in is free too — but it's entirely optional.
No contract and no lock-in. Packages start at £4.99/mo and you can cancel anytime. Pay As You Go includes no forwarding minutes — the £4.99 covers number rental plus voicemail allowance: 300 minutes on local/03 numbers, or 50 minutes on UK 07 mobile numbers. Forwarded calls are 5p/min to UK landlines or 7p/min to standard UK mobiles from calling credit. 0800/freephone calls are billed separately from 8p/min. The plans above it include a monthly bundle of forwarding minutes, and you only pay for what you use beyond it.
Yes — optional per-number call recording with a consent announcement. Recordings are stored securely and played back in your dashboard, never emailed, with per-package retention.
Choose a number, top up or pick a package, set where calls ring, and you can be live in minutes.
Every transcribed call or voicemail gets a free AI summary — the gist, the caller's mood, how urgent it is, and any action items. All of it is generated in-house on our own UK servers: your call audio and transcripts are never sent to a third-party AI provider, and the summaries themselves are never billed. Transcription minutes use your plan allowance first, then wallet credit; Mobile and above include a monthly allowance, and Pay As You Go transcribes on demand.
No — and we're upfront about that. LineHQ is your inbound business line; it can't make emergency calls, so your mobile keeps handling 999/112 exactly as it does today. LineHQ complements your phone — it doesn't replace it.
