LOCAL NUMBERS

Why Does Area Code Matter?

A local phone number provides several significant benefits to a small business. Firstly, it enhances the company's presence in the local community and makes it appear more accessible to customers.

This local presence further establishes trust and credibility, as customers generally feel more comfortable dealing with businesses they perceive as local. From a practical standpoint, a local number is also more convenient and often cheaper for customers to call compared to long-distance or toll-free numbers.

Additionally, a local number serves as an effective marketing tool, reinforcing the association of your business with the local community. Lastly, having a separate business number helps maintain the privacy of your personal number, creating a clear boundary between professional and personal communications.

AMAZING FEATURES

How to Spot a Spam Call or Text

Beware of unknown senders, urgent action requests, and too-good-to-be-true offers. Check for spelling errors and unfamiliar URLs. When in doubt, don't click or reply. Always verify from official sources.

Check for Unknown, Unfamiliar Numbers

A common sign of a spam call or text message is that it comes from an unknown or unfamiliar number. Sometimes, these numbers may even appear to be from another country. If you don't recognize the number, be cautious. Don't answer calls or reply to texts from numbers you don't know, especially if they aren't leaving messages.

Beware of Too Good To Be True Offers

Spam messages often contain offers that seem too good to be true. These could be promises of free vacations, big discounts, or large monetary rewards. As a rule of thumb, if something seems too good to be true, it probably is. Always verify such offers from a reliable source before responding.

Look Out for Urgent Requests for Personal Information

Spam callers or texters often try to create a sense of urgency to get you to provide personal information. They might pretend to be from your bank or a government agency, claiming there's a problem with your account or that you owe money. Never provide personal information in response to an unsolicited call or text message. When in doubt, hang up and contact the entity directly using a number you trust.

As a first time user I had some changes with installation, even though it was simple. But voiply was there for me 24/7 to sort out every challenge that I experienced. I have used it for a while now and have not experience any issues with the in and out call quality. This is highly recommended.

I live in the mountains of Washington State and I finally found a good alternative to running a landline up to my house to use as a Home phone. The quality of this Voilply phone service is as good as any land line I've ever had if not better in many ways.

I love the ease of purchase, the online dashboard is transparent about services and features, the customer service has always been topnotch, and you can't beat the price! I have the landline phone for my kids too young for cell phones and it's an added safety feature should I need to call 911 as the number is tied to my physical address. Worth every penny!

I recently became a voiply customer. The initial set up was simple. However I had a hard time receiving calls. I call the help desk. The first tech had some problems, but put in a help ticket. I received an email from the second tech. They had no problem fixing my issue. The phone now works as it should.

I had just received my new Voiply phone box. It was easy to install but I couldn't make outgoing calls. I contacted the support department and they worked until they fixed the problem. They stayed in contact via email until they had it resolved. The technician was polite and I really appreciated their communication and followup to make sure it was working on my end.
