If you take a local geographic number from one of the VoIP companies that we 
supply then you would have the option of migrating it to another of our 
partners, and very soon would also have the ability to port it over to 
British Telecom if you decide that VoIP is not for you.

Any of our partners can supply geographic numbers in any area code within 
the UK.

(To anyone who wants  to deal with us directly a minimum commitment of 200 
numbers applies)
