FAQ’s
Can I get SMS on my Pekin virtual phone number?
Yes, your Pekin 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 Pekin 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 a FlyNumber to support my small business in Pekin, Illinois?
Absolutely! Whether you’re running a cozy cafe near Mineral Springs Park or a boutique along Court Street, a FlyNumber can help you manage your calls efficiently. With features like a call menu system, you can ensure that calls are directed to the right department, enhancing customer service. Plus, our cloud phone system allows you to handle business calls from any location, perfect for those busy days when you're multitasking.
How does the call routing based on day or time work for a FlyNumber in Pekin?
This feature is quite handy, especially if your business has specific operating hours, like those charming Pekin antique shops that might have unique weekend hours. You can set your FlyNumber to route calls to your mobile during business hours and to voicemail after hours. This ensures you never miss out on potential customer inquiries, even during the Marigold Festival when things get hectic!
Is it possible to manage multiple FlyNumbers from a single account for different locations in Pekin?
Yes, you can! If you operate businesses in different parts of Pekin, perhaps one in Downtown and another near Pekin Lake, you can manage different FlyNumbers for each location from the same account. This helps streamline communications and maintain distinct local presences, each with customized call handling features suitable for each location's needs.
Can I record calls and store them securely with FlyNumber while operating in Pekin?
Definitely. For any business, whether legal, medical, or customer service in Pekin, securing recorded calls is vital. With FlyNumber, all recordings are saved automatically to the cloud. You can review them anytime to assess customer service quality or for compliance purposes, giving you peace of mind and a practical tool for business improvement.
Will my Pekin FlyNumber allow outbound calls with the local caller-ID?
Yes, it will! This feature is particularly useful if you want to keep a local presence in Pekin. When you make outgoing calls, your FlyNumber will appear as the caller-ID, so your contacts will recognize the call as coming from a local number. This helps in increasing answer rates and maintaining a community-focused business approach.
If I’m using a FlyNumber in Pekin, can I forward calls to any mobile or landline worldwide?
Certainly! This feature is a game changer if you're in Pekin but have clients or contacts elsewhere.
