Virtual Numbers

Virtual Number Solution

A Virtual Phone Number is a real telephone number without an associated phone line.

These numbers are programmed to be forwarded to either a VoIP service or to a different phone line, fixed or mobile.

Using virtual numbers with Telinta's hosted PortaSwitch call forwarding feature permits forwarding them to any phone number in any country.

Virtual Numbers are especially appealing to technology companies (for technical support), exporters (to give the impression that the company is local) and service companies such as call centers.

Beyond business applications, a virtual number also can save users money when calling friends and family long distance. If you live in New York and you acquire a phone number in India, for instance, all your friends and family in India can call that local virtual number instead of your New York phone number. You can have peace of mind knowing that your family and friends can reach you at any time without long distance charges.

Another market for virtual numbers includes dating services. Virtual numbers provide an added layer of privacy and security for anyone who dates random strangers. Theoretically, you could acquire a different virtual number for each dating prospect.
