Chart performance
Although the single was released as double A-side, the official Irish chart company, IRMA, did not combine the two singles when they charted, due to two different digital singles being available separately. "If That's OK with You" charted at number one, while "No U Hang Up" entered at number 14, later climbing to number 11. In the UK, the single entered the chart at number two, giving Ward his third and final top-five hit.
