UK Number for WhatsApp
A UK virtual number with country code +44 can be used to receive a WhatsApp verification SMS. After purchasing the number, enter it in WhatsApp and request the verification code by SMS.
UK Phone Number Format
UK mobile numbers normally begin with 07 in national format. When written internationally, the initial 0 is removed and replaced with the UK country code +44.
For example:
07123 456789 → +44 7123 456789
UK Mobile Networks
The four main mobile networks in the United Kingdom are:
EE
O2
Vodafone
Three
Other UK mobile brands and virtual operators use infrastructure provided by these networks.
UK Mobile Number Prefixes
UK mobile numbers generally use the 07 range. When entering a UK number in WhatsApp with +44 selected as the country code, the leading zero is not used.
The exact number range depends on the number available for the WhatsApp activation.
Receiving a WhatsApp Verification SMS
Purchase an available UK number and enter it when WhatsApp requests phone verification. Request the code by SMS. Once the message arrives, the verification code will appear in your SMS-ROOMS account.
Price and Availability
The price and availability of UK numbers for WhatsApp can change. Current information is displayed in the purchase section before activation.
If UK numbers are temporarily unavailable, check again later or select another available country.
Number Portability in the UK
UK mobile numbers can be transferred between providers. Because of number portability, the prefix of a number does not always identify the mobile network currently serving it.
If the WhatsApp Code Does Not Arrive
Check that the UK number was entered correctly and that +44 is selected as the country code. If WhatsApp allows another SMS request, wait until the verification timer expires before requesting a new code.
