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.

Voiply is an internet based low cost alternative to a land line which we keep because it's the phone my husband will reliably answer and where we get calls from old friends. It has not been without issues, but their service is really good at resolving them. I am happy with their service and will continue to use Voiply. I particularly like that they transcribe voicemails and send them to my email.

When we first started using Voiply our phone worked from 7 AM until 6 PM weekdays. It didn't work after 6 and on weekends. I put in a call to the support center, and after playing tag for a day and a half I received an e-mail from the Customer Support group. It was something that they have not seen before. After a couple of days and constant updates and request for information they were able to fix my problem. Now my phone works correctly. Throughout the entire ordeal the Customer Support Team made me feel that I was improtant to them, and kept me updated. I appreciated the way they handled my problem, and worked hard to correct it.

I switched my ATT to Voiply home phone service 2 weeks ago, and am extremely happy with the decision. Voiply not only kept me informed of the progress of equipments shipment, porting updat, and provided step by step installation instructions, they also responded to my questions, by phone, email, and chat, promptly with clarity. I am able to enjoy all the services, including incoming and outgoing caller ID, fax services, etc. that I had with ATT before the switch. I waited for two weeks to make sure the services run smoothly before I posted my opinion about voiply and I can say that I am extremely happy with the results.

Customer service helped quite efficiently during sign up. When I receive the equipment and hook it up, I should know more. I know someone who has it and says it's great.

We switched to Voiply after our current VOIP provider increased our rates 60% without warning (and we had been with them for over a decade). What a difference! They helped immediately with porting issues then fixed the mobile app so that we could get incoming calls. We were up and running within a day of the port completion. Our previous VOIP provider took days to fix an issue - Voiply fixed problems within minutes of our report. So customer support definitely gets five stars from us! The Voiply price is also more reasonable so that was very helpful. And both the web interface and mobile app were well written (I'm a software consultant/developer). I've added a picture of the Grandstream device that Voiply supplies for free. Besides power, it has inputs for a phone (RJ11) and an ethernet connection (RJ45). It is programmed to get a DHCP address on your internal network so be sure to allot some addressed on your firewall router for DHCP. We are glad that we ported to Voiply - what a difference from our previous supplier.
