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.

One could not ask for a better voip then Voiply. I have been a customer for many years and never experienced any issues at all, until this this year between Christmas and New Years. I was not receiving incoming calls and called for assistance. One would think, and most likely expect that during this time of the season help would not be forth coming. WRONG. The tech help desk solved the issue on the call back on a day between Christmas and New Years. Solved the issue, called in on the line, left a message and life was good again. Voiply takes problems seriously and solves them as soon as possible. One GREAT company with customer service in mind. And as a bonus their plans are very affordable and reasonable.

Yes, we still have a landline telephone. Voiply has been an excellent provider for years. The system works smoothly, including voicemail. If I ever have a question they respond very quickly. I always feel that I am chatting with a real person, not some AI-generated bot. The price is very reasonable and I recommend them highly.

Voiply includes simple step-by-step instructions that get you up and running in under 15 minutes. The amount of time depends on how long it takes you to read and follow the steps. 1. Connect the color coded Ethernet Cable 2. Connect you Telephone Cord 3. Connect the Power Supply 4. Let the Adapter configure itself 5. Make and receive phone calls I was literally less than five minutes from the time I completed connecting the cables until I made my first phone call. There are very few home electronics that are easier to set up and use. The online customer portal is easy to access, provides appropriate tabs, and straight forward use. Very happy with my new home phone setup.

We recently switched our business landline to Voiply and had some issues after the porting process was complete. I contacted customer service, and they were able to resolve the issue quickly and get us up and running. The additional features provided by Voiply over a traditional landline phone are wonderful.

We have had a very positive experience with Voiply! They provide an exceptionally fair price for excellent service. The platform is remarkably easy to use, and their technical support team is always responsive, helpful, and ready to assist whenever we need them. Voiply has been a wonderful communication solution for the Monastery of Our Lady of Ephesus. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable VoIP service!

This was the easiest transition of a phone service ever! Everything transferred right on time, received the voiply box within days, plugged it in and done! No more monthly bill from a phone company. I wish I would have known about this service years ago.

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 needed assistance on my Voiply account. I thought that I had reached a dead end with my AI interaction. AI has it merits but thinking outside the box and providing quality service requires a caring and empathetic human! Your support and service exceeded all of my expectations. Thank you Voiply!
