How to vote in the Britain’s Got Talent 2023 semi-finals
You’ll be voting for your favourite act(s) in the Britain’s Got Talent semi-finals, in a bid to help them reach the final.
There are two ways to vote: by phone, or online via the ITV website.
By phone, each contestant will be assigned a phone number starting with digits ’09’.
They’ll also be assigned a shorter phone number or ‘dial code’, which you can use if you’re calling in from a mobile phone.
During the show, these numbers will be displayed, and it’ll be made clear when the phone lines are open for voting. You’ll simply need to call the number to cast your vote.
Either option won’t be cheap – each call costs 50p plus your network’s access charge.

You’ll need to register your mobile number on ITV’s site to vote this way, but you do get five votes for free once you’ve done so.

Note you’ll need to be living in the UK, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man to take part in the voting process.
