Dead Ringer says it can answer missed calls and make routine calls for you, using a British-voiced assistant on your existing UK number.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-06 issue.
For
UK callers who miss calls or avoid routine phone errands
Worth noticing
The setup describes a carrier divert code for busy or unanswered calls; the phone rings first, and one code switches forwarding off.

Field notes

The setup described uses a carrier divert rather than replacing the user's number: the phone rings first, and unanswered or busy calls can then be sent to the assistant. The site says one code arms forwarding and another turns it off, and describes a shared pool of minutes for incoming and outgoing calls. Its restaurant-booking scenario is presented as a worked example; the extracted homepage does not establish that the demonstrated call occurred.
