UK numbers on InstantSMS use the +44 country code. Unlike domestic UK dialing, where mobile numbers start with a leading 0 (e.g. 07123 456789), the international format drops that 0 - so the same number becomes +447123456789. This trips people up often: entering the domestic 0 alongside +44 will make the number invalid on most verification forms. UK mobile numbers here are genuine live lines, not simulated numbers, and each shows recent inbox activity so you can judge how active it currently is before using it. As with all public numbers, expect variability - some UK apps and services accept these lines easily, others apply stricter carrier-based filtering.
