"How can I reach
you?"
How many phones have you
got? Home, office, company mobile, personal mobile, and maybe
others.
So, why not give
people one "follow me" number where you can be reached, and divert
that to the phone you are available on at that time - especially
as it can ring several different locations at once to find
you!
This is really useful if you are abroad and
are using a pay as
you go SIM: people phone 1 number, and you divert the call to
your international SIM. Easy!
You can select your own number, and can also
select the "type" of number you have; some numbers cover all or
part of the cost of forwarding a call, depending on where you want
it forwarded to. Even paying the extra to get the call forwarded
to more expensive destinations is a small part of what mobile
phone networks charge to receive a call while abroad: part of
lowering the cost of international phone calls is in the handling
of inbound calls!
If you are not available or do not wish
to be disturbed, the call can even go to voice mail, until you are
ready to take the call.
You can also
combine your "follow me number" (also known by some people as a
"personal number") with our phone answering and virtual pbx
services.
Hint: if you are moving around, and
need to send and receive email, then connect your laptop to your
mobile phone, & send and receive email at 10x the speed! Click here to find
