Is there an inexpensive service that forwards calls from a fixed (VoIP) line to a mobile?

I would like to have a London number which forwards calls to my mobile so I
bear the cost. Does anyone offer this service at a reasonable price? Is
there a better alternative I haven't considered? Someone I spoke to
mentioned Asterisk and I have read some threads here, but I think that is
overkill for my requirements.

www.voipfone.co.uk Provide phone numbers £1.99 a month, and you can
divert them to your mobile. They don't show CLI of incoming calls though

Yes I spotted that too but apparently they are supposed to be changing
that this week not that it matters too much

Yes to be honest I only noticed it because I had all my calls diverted
and I was waiting for an important call that I missed and when I
checked my missed calls it showed no number so I gave voipfone a call
and they said that they were changing it this week so that the
originating cli is passed to the receiving phone

Well at the moment i get the CLI of my own number 0560.... Which is
confusing!

I hope they sort it on the ring back service too, so i can call from my
mobile, with the call looking like it is from my mobile and not a
strange 0560 number people dont know.

Vonage has "simulring" - you specify a list of numbers that will ring as
soon as your VOIP number rings, the first one to pick up takes the call.

They also have call hunt and basic divert.

No additional charge for the above.
