How to use your Global Call Forwarding Number(s)

Make sure to let your Toll Free or Local Number(s) be known by the people or institutions that will use them to reach you.  In other words, after your account is activated and you receive your new virtual number, you would need to distribute it or advertise the number so your callers would be able to reach you at the ‘ring to’ number you specified.

Bear in mind that while the Local Numbers can be dialed from any country in the world, Toll Free Numbers will only work when dialed from the respective country.

For example a UK Toll Free Number can only be dialed from the UK while a UK Local Number can be dialed from the UK, China, Germany, Bahrain or any other country in the world.

When your virtual number is dialed, our system will instantly forward the call to your ring-to phone number (this will be the phone number you assigned for incoming calls to be forwarded to).

One of our customers asked if providing a local phone number would really help their sales.  The market services in the UK and other countries but are located in Canada.

We suggested they get a local UK number in a city that would be most convenient for their UK customers.  They decided on a London number since that would be central and a reasonable number to offer.

Since then we hear that the number now gets regular callers that are happy to call the UK local number and are pleased with the company for providing it.  Many new UK callers feel comfortable calling the UK number and would not have called Canada directly because of international call costs.
