If your UK mobile network charges you a fortune to call Jersey, PhoneJersey is for you: a local number that forwards home for 5p/min to Jersey landlines and 15p/min to Jersey mobiles, with no contract and no minimum spend.
Why Jersey calls cost so much
Jersey feels like part of the UK — same pound, same +44 dialling — but it’s a Crown Dependency, and for telecoms the UK networks treat it as a separate destination. Calls to Jersey numbers (01534 landlines and Jersey mobiles) fall out of bundle: they don’t come out of your inclusive minutes, and depending on your provider you can pay up to 65p a minute to ring the Island.
Call Jersey for 8 minutes a day — about 240 minutes a month — at 65p/min, and that’s roughly £156 on top of your normal bill.
How PhoneJersey works
We give you a UK number that’s covered by the inclusive minutes on your existing mobile plan. When you ring it, we forward the call to any Jersey number you choose — a landline or a mobile, your own or a friend’s or family member’s — for:
- 5p/min to Jersey landlines
- 15p/min to Jersey mobiles
It’s pay as you go — top up credit and it draws down as you call — with a £1/month charge to keep your number, and no contract. That same 240-minutes-a-month caller drops from ~£156 to about £13.
Getting started
- Sign up and we allocate your UK number in seconds.
- Tell us the Jersey number to forward to, and top up your credit.
- Save your PhoneJersey number in your phone and call it instead of dialling Jersey directly.
Every call comes out of your inclusive UK minutes, and we forward it to Jersey for pennies — no new SIM, no contract, and you only pay for the calls you make.
