Keep your 01924 number
Nothing to port. Set your existing 01924 line to forward to your Silux Voice number — every call, or only when you’re busy or don’t pick up — and callers in Wakefield keep dialling the number on your van, sign or website. Prefer a fresh number? Silux Call, our phone service, allocates one for you.
The copper switch-off and your 01924 line
BT and Openreach are retiring the old copper phone network (PSTN), moving UK landlines to digital, with the switch-off due to complete by January 2027. If your Wakefield business still has a traditional landline or ISDN, you will need to move — and it is a good moment to put a receptionist on the number at the same time. You keep your 01924 number either way.
What the switch-off means for your business →Holidays: England has eight bank holidays a year, including Easter Monday and the late-May and August bank holidays. Set your own closures and it tells callers you’re shut rather than booking them in.

Questions from Wakefield
Will my Wakefield customers still ring my 01924 number?
Yes. You forward calls from your existing 01924 number to your Silux Voice number — every call, or only when you are busy or don’t answer — so customers in Wakefield keep ringing the number they already know. Nothing has to be ported. If you would rather have a new number, Silux Call, our phone service, allocates one for you.
Is there a ready-made setup for my kind of Wakefield business?
Any business that takes calls. There are ready-made setups for Logistics & Transport, Plumbing & Heating, Manufacturing & Factories, Solicitors & Legal and more, each with the departments and rules that trade needs.
Do I need to meet someone locally in Wakefield to set it up?
No — Silux Voice has no local offices. It is set up online in minutes with a guided planner, you test it in a chat before going live, and it answers for Wakefield businesses the same way it does everywhere.
Does it follow Wakefield opening hours and bank holidays?
You set your opening hours and holiday closures, and it answers accordingly on Europe/London time. England has eight bank holidays a year, including Easter Monday and the late-May and August bank holidays.
