retaining my landline number   
Hi All,

I have a telephone number with Virgin Media. I'm planning to move to
another town very soon which has a different area code, but my number
is very important to me. I have it printed on business cards, head
letters, the number is in directories etc.

I'm worried that when I move Virgin won't allow me using my existing
number. Are there any ways I could transfer this number to some VOIP
company or another landline operator? How can I execute it?

Thanks a lot,
Richard

What did Virgin say when you spoke to them about this problem?

Ask Virgin nicely.

Otherwise gradwell or Voipfone are your friends.

Or another provide who can port Virgin numbers.
