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.

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 numbers

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 offers

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 personal information requests

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.

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

I have had Voiply for the past 3 years and their service is amazing. The quality of the calls are clear. The customer service reps are so helpful. Their annual plan averages to about $13 a month(after taxes and fees) which also includes free international calls on about 50 countries. Nobody can beat that price! I've looked at other companies and many have bad reviews from the BBB. Their protection plan costs $1.00 a month. VOIPLY is rated A+ from the BBB. I highly recommend them!

I've been with Voiply for many years with excellent phone service. If I had any questions or problems, Customer Service was right there to help. Call quality is always spot-on and their pricing plans make it very affordable. I've tried others, and this company has been the best, so far.

For those considering VOIPLY, let me tell you this has been a great change from my previous VOIP service. The clarity has improved ten fold and so far haven’t had any issues with VOIPLY. THE $8.95 charge is somewhat misleading because it does not include other taxes and fee charges which amounts to a total of around $16per month which is still very reasonable compared to cell phone plans and even more on land line charges. I would definitely recommend VOIPLY as your home phone plan.

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.

We used Voiply service for many years with trouble free service. When it came time to cancel our service (just don’t use the land line anymore) they made this very simple to do. If we ever need a landline again we will definitely be back!
