Great customer service

Great customer service - very fast and easy! I was able to port my UK number overseas and can now use it whenever I need it while abroad. Service itself is good and efficient.

Simon is the best

The customer service I received from a gentleman named Simon was exceptional. He was highly intelligent, competent, and a pleasure to deal with.

Smooth number port-in, port-out, clear communication, and helpful support

I used Swytch while abroad and needed to port my number back to EE.

The process was simple from start to finish. Support replied quickly, did sensible security checks, sent me a one-time code, and issued the PAC the same day.

Instructions were clear, including the PAC expiry and what would happen with billing. After the port completed, they confirmed my number was removed and cancelled the subscription without any hassle.

Polite, prompt, and transparent throughout. Exactly how customer support should be. I’d use Swytch again and I’m happy to recommend them.

Great service and amazing customer servicd

I used Swytch for over 2 years while i was living in Spain and kept my UK number. The service is great, affordable and the customer service is very kind and responsive.

I recommend using Swytch whenever you need to maintain your UK number whilst living abroad.

I highly recommend Swytch

I highly recommend Swytch - the concept kind of blew my mind a bit but Simon from Swytch literally held my hand, patiently taking me through each and every step to transport my UK mobile number from EE to Swytch so that I can continue to use my UK number in South Africa. Brilliant service!

Easy solution for keeping a UK number

I emailed Simon at Switch with some really daft questions, but I needed to be absolutely sure that I understood what Swytch was and that it was right for me. Simon answered all my questions promptly, and when I signed up for it, the porting in of my UK number was done within a day. I would absolutely recommend Swytch to anyone looking for a way to keep a UK number but without having to pay for a costly UK contract.

Switched country but no need to Swytch number

Swytch made it possible to manage everything digital (you know all those one time authentication codes that are sent to your mobile phone) during a period overseas. The solution worked almost without a hitch over four years and support, when needed on occasion, has been outstanding.

Great product and great support

Firstly, this is a great service if you need to set up a new UK number while you are away from the UK.

I was also able to transfer my existing UK number (previously with TalkTalk who gave a short notice that they were stopping their mobile service) to Swytch. (Note: this transfer has to be done via support at swytch.com after you've set up your account and got a number from them.)

Swytch's support is excellent! They are incredibly quick to respond and it's a real human that you're dealing with. There was an issue with the transfer of my existing UK number and it did take some time to resolve (as it was caused by the main carrier Vodafone) but Swytch support were totally on the case until the resolution was done.

A nice app too. Imports all your contacts for easy calls, works when not open (n.b. you must have all the app notifications allowed in your mobile settings) and SMS text messages work fine.

Previously, I had to pay over £1 per minute to receive calls while roaming - now it costs nothing. Great result.

Very impressive product and service support

The app works exactly as advertised - it's very easy to use and it's been a simple but very effective way of keeping a UK mobile number. Looking over the authorisation codes and other messages I've received after moving overseas has shown just how useful that's been.

My experience with the service team who support porting a number into the app and getting everything set up was first rate too. Very responsive, very knowledgeable and able to provide well informed practical support. If only all service teams offered anything close.

Overall, it's been an excellent experience and I'd happily recommend Swytch to friends and family.

A Smooth and Stress-Free Experience

I've been using Swytch for my virtual SIM card, and it's been a great experience from start to finish. I was particularly impressed with how easy it was to get set up with their service. The mobile app is straightforward, making it simple to manage my number without any hassle.

What really stood out, though, was their customer support when I needed to port my number out. I was a bit worried about the process, but the support team was very helpful and kind. They guided me through each step, and because of their clear instructions and patience, the transfer went through without any problems. It was a genuinely positive and stress-free interaction.

I would recommend Swytch to anyone looking for a reliable virtual number service outside of the UK. Their platform is easy to use, and their customer support team makes a real difference.

Excellent communication…

Excellent communication throughout and even when the website had an issue they identified the problem and fixed.

I cannot recommend Swytch highly enough if like me you want to keep your UK mobile number but are no longer in the UK.

The customer service & response via email has been refreshingly good thus far.

Value for money using swytch as an eSIM & have a physical local sim in my phone. (Vietnam)

Easy and stress free :)

I recently switched my UK mobile number over to Swytch while living abroad, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. From the moment I signed up, the process was clear and straightforward.

The support team were extremely prompt in responding to my queries and guided me through providing my PAC code and details. Within just a few days, my number was successfully ported over, and everything was up and running smoothly.

Calls and texts now arrive in the Swytch app without any issues, and I can make outgoing calls and send SMS showing my UK number as well. The whole transition caused me minimal stress, and it’s such a relief knowing I can keep my UK number active without the cost of a full UK mobile contract.

Overall, the service has been seamless, reliable, and exactly what I needed. I’d highly recommend Swytch to anyone abroad who wants to keep their UK number alive and working with minimal fuss.

Fatastic Customer Serive - Thank you Simon

I would highly recommend Swytch, not only that signing up was simple, the interface is clear but most importantly the customer service is excellent. I encountered issues with my bank and customer support was fast, patient and informative. Simon is an asset to the company and with his help I managed to resolve the payment issue on the Swytch end, whilst my bank has left me hanging without clear information regarding the problem. The most important aspect of an online service is tested when there are issues and Swytch has passed with flying colours. Highly recommended
