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.

What Real People Say About Us

Experience why Voiply has become the top-rated home phone provider, trusted by over 50,000 satisfied customers.

Voiply is great. Probably the best telephone VoIP service in the business. All phones are being forced to go Voice over IP. We were with Windstream/ Kinetic/ and whatever company they just merged with. Voiply’s cost and superior customer service kicks the mess out of our previous carrier. Check out the cost and you might just be their next customer.

I changed internet providers to T-MOBILE and was sent a 5G Gateway router. I read that there were issues because it has to be configured to Voiply.On two occasions I could not receive or call out with Voiply and had to use my cell phone. I contacted customer service and they fixed the issue and told me what to do if it happens again on my end and if that doesn't work call customer support. They were easy to work with for someone that's a senior and not computer savvy.

Voiply provides a reasonably priced option for my business. I did encounter an issue receiving calls. When I contacted Voiply support, they responded within an hour and the issue was resolved shortly thereafter.

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.

The Voiply customer service was very helpful and fast!! I read a lot of criticism on the Better Business Bureau website and thought that Voiply wasn't no good, but I told them my problem and they fixed it right away!!

I switched to Voiply 2 years ago to cut costs, but now I wouldn’t go back to my old phone service even if it were cheaper. The few times I have needed to reach out to support (mostly user error!) they have been very knowledgeable, professional, and quick to identify and correct the issue. And now I have service anywhere with an internet connection or cell signal. Super convenient on my cell or laptop when I’m rarely at home, but my elderly father in law still can use the regular phones too. And the email transcripts of voicemails is a lifesaver! Not a single complaint except wish I had switched sooner. And call quality is NOT like old school VOIP, it is never choppy or dropping calls, sounds better and clearer and more reliable than my old landline service. Recommend 100%

All I can say is it was SEAMLESS! I had no idea this service even existed until my son shared it with me. I’ve had my number for 45 years and didn’t want to lose it but had to ask if it was cost effective. This made my answer easy…NO it wasn’t until I parked it with VOIPLY. Thank you for the service and for making the switch so easy.
