Title: 0800 number
Post by: Pure Glass on January 10, 2011, 11:33:55 am

Does anybody use a freephone/0800 number diverted to your mobile???

A 7 year old answering my calls at home is starting to damage my already thin veneer of proffesionalism!!!!  :D

Any suggestions please. Ta

Thanks Blue Monkey. This missus doesn't want to miss calls for her, so hence asking the question about a seperate line.

Just wondered if it was cheaper to get a dedicated number for my business, via an 0800 option rather than diverting all our home incoming calls to my mobile

I found for residential work 0800 numbers dont work (didnt work in my area). I got another line with my provider thats £2 a month - dedicated work number which i can divert to any number i want and take to phone abroad with me and still recieve calls at standard rate.

My advice would be to get a second line put in and divert the calls to your mobile (check you can change between mobile and landline as you please - some dont let you do this) That way you can divert to your mobile when your out and stick the phone at home on mute

www.ttnc.co.uk are good.  I use the territorial numbers. I have a 0800 withthem  but don't use it these days. People like to ring local numbers.
