Hi @Hannah862
So the news isn't good, the only way to give you a new number is to stop the service and place a new order, meaning a loss of service between the stop and restart potentially 10 days.
If the reason to change the number is to stop calls from people who know your number, enable callsafe and add their number to the blocked list this will stop them calling.

Hi Hannah862
Im not sure its possible to renumber a VoIP service, without a full cancel and reprovide.
I will check and get back to you.

It should be possible, @Hannah862, as sometimes people need this to be done if their number has been targeted by scammers, or whatever.
Staff will be back on here during the day.
