Re: Followme + voicemail = nothing?

I think the best you can do right now is put the "number of seconds before voicemail" value to the largest possible, hoping people will hang up before reaching voicemail.

Re: POTS to Dryloop & number to FPL

Well, I have a fallback plan! I can use my iPhone's internet through tethering if my DSL ever goes down. It won't be as fast, granted, but I'll still get internet access. In any case, as soon as FPL grabs my number, I'll put my voicemail to kick in immediately. My messages are sent via email to my p...

Re: POTS to Dryloop & number to FPL

Thanks for that, callopsitte. I placed a call today to FPL and discussed this with them. They strongly recommend I start with the phone number porting before anything else in order to secure my number.

I'd like to ask this forum for people that did similar things in order to plan the best scenario. I have a phone line with Bell, and internet DSL on it with TekSavvy. I want to lose Bell, and go...

Followme + voicemail = nothing?

Hi, just setup a new account a few days ago. Love the system so far, I'm about to ditch Bell! Goodbye! So I've setup the followme to forward to my cell when unavailable on the softphone. I've got the voicemail setting to 15 seconds, the my cellphone is listed with 10 seconds delay. When I call from ...
