Orange re-launches Landline Number Service (UK)

­Orange UK has re-launched a service they originally offered when the company launched its services back in 1994 – namely the ability to have a landline number that routes directly to a mobile phone.

According to Orange, many businesses choose to keep a landline as it could be seen as a mark of an established or local business with an easily recognizable area code. However, this limits access to calls when someone is out of the office. Orange Pocket Landline offers the advantage of having a location specific number without having to have an always staffed fixed office base.

Pocket Landline packages are offered on a simple set monthly price structure depending on what suits the business best. One landline can be routed to between one to 10 mobiles or have several landlines routed to a single mobile. People calling the number will not be charged any more than the costs of a local landline call.
