UK virtual mobile number to receive SMS online
UK apps and websites usually expect a British mobile number, the ones starting with 07. Noir SMS rents UK mobile numbers from carriers for a single verification, so you can sign up or confirm a login without handing your personal number to another company. UK numbers also have some of the widest service coverage and stock in the dashboard.

Tips for United Kingdom numbers
Drop the 0 after +44
A UK mobile number is 07 followed by 9 digits. With the +44 country code selected, type it starting from the 7, as shown in your dashboard. Typing +44 07… is the most common reason a UK code never arrives.
Wide coverage across services
UK numbers are available for more services than almost any other country in the dashboard, including messaging, email, marketplaces and gaming apps, with live prices and stock.
Not for banking or ID checks
UK banks, fintech apps and services that check your identity tie your number to you for years. A temporary number is the wrong tool there; Noir SMS doesn't allow it, and you'd lose access when the number is recycled.

United Kingdom virtual number: FAQ
Can I get a UK phone number without living in the UK?
Yes. You can rent a UK mobile number on Noir SMS from anywhere and receive the verification code in your browser. It's meant for verifying your own accounts, following each platform's terms.
Do UK virtual numbers start with 07?
Yes. Noir SMS UK numbers are mobile numbers, 07 followed by 9 digits domestically, or +44 7 followed by 9 digits in international format.
Is a UK virtual number free?

20 minutes from purchase, enough for the verification and a resend. After that it returns to the provider, so add a permanent recovery method to any account you plan to keep.
