Local and toll-free 0800 inbound phone numbers

Giving your business the impression of a local presence in multiple geographic areas is easy using virtual phone numbers with each relevant region’s area code.

Alternatively, if you’re wanting to portray a national presence using just one advertised number, then a toll-free 0800 number is the perfect solution!

How it works

1 Choose your preferred numbers 2 Customer calls you 3 Your calls are answered 4 We deliver your messages

Choose your preferred numbers

Consider whether you’d like to attract and measure customer enquiries from specific cities, regions or nationwide. This will help you to determine whether multiple local numbers are the best fit for your business or if a national 0800 number may be the better option. Then simply let us know which number you’d like.

Customer calls you

Start receiving calls from your desired locations. Depending on your call answering setup, we’ll route the calls either to our virtual receptionists or to your automated solution (whether to a different number of your choice or direct to voicemail).

Your calls are answered

If you have your virtual phone number paired with a live answering service, our friendly and professional Professional receptionists will answer your business calls with your preferred greeting, providing a seamless experience for your customers. If you have a call diversion service or voicemail-to-email service activated, either you’ll answer the call yourself or it will go straight to voicemail.

We deliver your messages

If you have your virtual number paired with a live answering service, after each call you’ll immediately receive a message by email, SMS or both (as chosen by you) including details such as the caller’s name, number and the reason for their call. If you have a voicemail-to-email service, you’ll immediately receive an email with the message attached as an audio file.

FAQs

Do you give me a number and is it exclusive to me?

Yes. You will be allocated an exclusive, dedicated local number based on the location of your company. You can either advertise this number directly, or forward calls to it from your existing business number. When calls are received to your dedicated number, our professional receptionists will be prompted to answer in your business name.

If your business would benefit from multiple numbers or toll-free number, you can add these for an additional cost. Please note, if you wish to port out your number at any stage in the future, this can only be done with toll-free numbers.

Can I forward my existing business number to ReceptionHQ?

Yes, you can forward any landline, mobile number or toll-free number to us, to be answered by our receptionists. Forwarded calls are seamlessly answered by our receptionists in your company name with the greeting of your choice.

Can I get additional numbers for each region?

Yes. ReceptionHQ can provide you with a local number for where you are based and, if you require it, we can also provide multiple numbers in different area codes. Advertising local numbers in additional cities or regions can give customers the impression your business is more established or has a larger coverage area. For a national appearance, we can provide you with a toll-free number. Contact us to find out more.

Do you offer 0800 toll-free numbers?

Yes, we can instantly add a toll-free 0800 number to your account, which gives you a national presence and allows callers to contact you at no charge. For these specialty numbers, you’ll be provided with a list of available numbers to choose from, as we understand it’s an important decision and you’ll want to keep your national number for the life of your business.
