Remote Call Divert

Does anyone know of a good, cheap phone company that won't charge the earth to divert my business phone number from my old house to my new number at my new address? (Remote Call Divert) My current provider is quoting £30 p.m and BT are around the same. I think it's a bit steep just to divert a phone. Hope someone can help thanks, Jon.

    £30 per month seems nothing if you are gaining it back in business opportunities.
    What about a callsure number from redstone?

    Could you not port it to a reputable VOIP supplier and answer it directly without need to divert.

    Might be worth investigating. But an added complication is that I already diverted my phone to an answering service (using the *21* method) who then texted me messages as I am out most of the day. I don't know if this would be compatible with VOIP.
