Saves Money
Answering services typically includes an allowance of usage. Each time you manually dial us to connect to our network, it is deducted from your monthly allowance. By remotely forwarding your lines, this allowance can be used where it truly matters; interacting with your callers.
Disaster Recovery
When disasters occur it is sometimes too late to react. Over the last seventy five years we have provided seamless customer service during difficult times. The aftermath of hurricanes, earthquakes, ice storms or even fires sometimes makes it impossible to manually forward your line. In situations like these, forwarding your lines remotely is the best way to redirect your calls to us.
Simple
This method does not require a ‘# combination’; it is as simple as making a telephone call. Remote Call Forwarding is also the most convenient method to forward your phone if you are physically away from it.
