Moving to the UK? Safely buy a memorable mobile number
Moving to the UK? Here's how to safely buy a memorable mobile number
Do your research
Before you go out and buy a memorable number, it’s important to do your research. In this section, we’ll walk you through what you need to consider when buying a memorable number, and why you should choose British Numbers.
Look for a company that's easy to contact
You should be able to get in touch with the company easily. Ideally, they have a contact number, email address and live chat facility so you can get an answer back quickly. You should also be able to find out where they're based so you know where to send your money if something goes wrong.
If something does go wrong with your order, having easy-to-find contact details will help when trying to resolve it. If there are problems with your order then it's best if you're able to speak directly with someone who can help rather than leaving them a message or sending an email that might take days before being answered.
Check out previous customer reviews
If you want to know what your new phone number will be before you even get it, then check out previous customer reviews on Trustpilot or similar websites. You should look for companies that have lots of positive reviews and make sure they're fairly recent (within the last year). It's also a good idea to avoid any companies with a lot of negative reviews—you can do this by searching for their name on Google. If there are any complaints that seem like they may be relevant to your situation, contact the company directly to find out what happened and see if they can offer some advice on how to prevent similar issues in the future.
On top of checking up on companies' past performances, you should also check out their websites! Every mobile number seller has their own website where they explain how everything works—these sites can give you some extra insight into what kind of service each company provides before signing anything official - so take advantage while you still have time!
Choose a memorable number
When choosing a memorable number, you need to consider the following:
- Is it easy to say, spell, or remember?
- Is it personal to you?
- Does it fit in with a pattern or sequence?
