Title: 0800 help
Post by: pt on September 18, 2006, 05:40:48 pm

Hi All,

Over the next couple of weeks I am in the process of re-naming my business, re-designing my logo and all associated paperwork ready for a local advertising campainge in the near future. What I would like to know from you guys is how do these 0800 numbers (or similar) work ? Are they a seperate line? Can they be redirected to your mobile/house phone etc and do you guys use them, and if so are they worth it. All replies welcome.

ManyThanks,

Paul.

From what I believe it's the same line you already use, But has a different ring tone, so you can answer it accordingly. Then all calls are reversed. :)

you could get a LO-call number and they can be redirected to any phone you like, with some companies you can set a time for redirection

i.e

8 till 5 in the day to your mobile

rest of the time a landline (or answer phone)
