FAQ’s

Can I get SMS on my Danville virtual phone number?

Yes, your Danville FlyNumber will come with SMS capabilities. The text message will be forwarded to the email on file free of charge. Full list of SMS enabled numbers here.

Can I use my Danville virtual number for 2FA or other verification services?

This really depends on the company/service sending the SMS to the FlyNumber; it's up to them to actually send the text. We can't guarantee 2FA or short code SMS will work. Texts from regular mobile phones should work fine though.

Can I use FlyNumber to support my small business in Danville, especially during events like the Vermilion County Fair?

Absolutely! With FlyNumber, you can set up a virtual phone number that works on any device, enabling you to keep in touch with your team and customers effortlessly, no matter where you are. During local events, you can use the call forwarding feature to route calls to any phone, ensuring you never miss out on a potential customer even when you're busy manning a booth at the fair.

I’m a local historian in Danville and give many talks; can I use FlyNumber to manage calls during my presentations?

Yes, FlyNumber is perfect for that! You can set up a call menu to direct callers appropriately while you're giving talks. For example, callers can press 1 to leave a message, 2 to get information about your next speaking event, or 3 to speak with an assistant. This way, you can focus on your presentations without interruptions, and your audience engagement won’t suffer.

How can FlyNumber help me stay connected with my clients across different time zones, given Danville’s location in the Central Time Zone?

FlyNumber allows you to route phone calls based on the time of day, making it ideal for managing communication with clients in different time zones. If you have clients on the East or West Coast, you can set specific times to forward calls to your mobile or to voicemail, ensuring you're providing timely responses without disrupting your personal time.

Is it possible to manage multiple FlyNumber accounts for my real estate business in Danville?

Definitely! If you’re managing multiple listings and want to have different numbers for each, FlyNumber lets you manage multiple virtual numbers under the same account. This can greatly simplify tracking calls for each property, and the integrated cloud phone system ensures that all voicemails and recordings are easily accessible.

Can FlyNumber help enhance my customer service for my café in downtown Danville?

Yes, with FlyNumber’s cloud phone system, you can create a professional customer service experience right from your café. Set up a call menu that directs callers to place orders, inquire about daily specials, or speak directly with customer service. Plus, all calls can be recorded and stored in the cloud, so you can always review them to improve service.

Will using FlyNumber allow me to keep my business running smoothly during Danville’s winter snowstorms?

Certainly! Since FlyNumber operates over the internet, you can handle business calls from anywhere, even if you can’t get to your office due to bad weather.
