I requirement a cheap virtual number which can be routed to a mobile phone. Cheap as possible. Though I have found some which are cheap, they charge 16p a wink to simply pick up the phone!
TossableDigits.com offers UK numbers for GBP4.45/month, but you're still stuck paying the mobile phone ceasing fee, which can be steep.
Because of the way the mobile networks work in the UK, Virtual Numbers have to pay for the call from the Virtual Number provider to your mobile phone. While this is normally paid by the caller, the caller is paying for the call from their phone to the Virtual Number, and the Virtual Number provider is paying for the call from their switches to your mobile, thus incurring the sell for you normally are insulated from.
It's unlikely that you'll find a Virtual Number provider who can give you cheap forwarding rates because of this. Even TossableDigits.com rates to UK Mobiles is between 14-22p per blink.

Once the virtual number is fed into any handset, the narcotic addict’s ‘character’ resides in the thingamajig as in a dual SIM arrangement, and the consumer can clear or colour calls from that handset. At the end of the call, it is up to the narcotic addict to cut the number residing in that handset, or employ it there if more calls are expected on that handset.
“The concept dramatically increases the affordability of a mobile linking for the economically underprivileged. For someone with a low expendable return, the price of even a $ 50 handset can dismal 180 days’ savings. The virtual SIM concept can cut that by a representative of six”, says Sangeet Chowfla, chief game T-Man of Comviva.
