What is a dedicated UK business SMS number?

A real +44 mobile number assigned to your account on sign-up

Every TextBack Pro plan includes a dedicated UK mobile number with a +44 prefix. This is the number your missed callers will receive SMS messages from and reply to. It is a real UK mobile number, not a shortcode or an international number.

You keep your existing business phone number. The setup uses conditional call divert: when a call to your number goes unanswered, it is forwarded to TextBack Pro, which triggers the SMS response. We walk you through the divert setup step by step.

Your dedicated UK number is assigned within minutes of signing up. There is no porting, no waiting and no additional cost beyond your plan.

How it works

Live in minutes, no number changes required

A dedicated UK mobile number (+44) is assigned to your account

When you sign up, TextBack Pro automatically assigns a dedicated UK mobile number to your account. It is ready to use within minutes, with no setup call or waiting period.

You set up conditional call divert on your existing number

You keep your existing business number. We walk you through setting up a conditional call divert so that unanswered calls forward to TextBack Pro. It takes around two minutes on any UK network.

Missed calls divert to TextBack Pro; SMS replies come from your UK number

When a call to your business number goes unanswered, it diverts to TextBack Pro. Your dedicated UK +44 number sends the SMS reply. Callers respond to that number and their messages land in your dashboard.

Why it matters

A proper UK number, ready in minutes

No number porting

You do not need to transfer or port your existing business number. Keep everything as it is and just add a conditional call divert.

Keep your existing number

Your business number stays the same. Customers still call the number they know. Nothing changes for them, only for the calls that go unanswered.

Dedicated +44 mobile

Your SMS replies come from a real UK mobile number. Callers recognise it as local and are more likely to open and respond than to an international or shortcode number.

Looks professional

A dedicated UK mobile number signals professionalism. Customers trust it, reply to it and associate it with your brand rather than a generic messaging service.

Included on all plans

A dedicated UK mobile number is included with every TextBack Pro plan, from Starter at £47 per month. Scale subscribers get up to five numbers.

Assigned in minutes

Your UK number is assigned automatically when you sign up. No manual provisioning, no waiting for an account manager to get in touch.

Common questions

UK number: your questions answered

No. You keep your existing business number. TextBack Pro works alongside it using conditional call divert. When a call to your number goes unanswered, it forwards automatically to TextBack Pro. Your customers see no change.

You get a dedicated UK mobile number with a +44 prefix, the same format as any standard UK mobile number. It is not a shortcode, a premium rate number or an international number. It is a real mobile number that UK callers can save, call and text.

The dedicated number is provisioned for SMS sending and receiving only. It cannot be used for outbound calls. You continue to make calls from your existing business number as usual.

Number porting is not currently supported. TextBack Pro works alongside your existing number using conditional call divert, which achieves the same result without any disruption to your business calls. Most customers find this is the simpler and faster option.
