FAQ’s

Can I get SMS on my Melrose virtual phone number?

Yes, your Melrose 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 Melrose 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 manage calls for my business in Melrose while I travel?

Absolutely! With a FlyNumber, you can effortlessly forward your calls to any mobile or landline worldwide. This means you can keep in touch with your local Melrose customers even as you journey across other states or countries. Plus, you can adjust these settings instantly, anytime, ensuring you never miss a beat from back home, whether you're on business in NYC or vacationing in Hawaii.

How does FlyNumber help in handling calls during the busy maple tapping season in Melrose?

During the bustling maple tapping season when calls may increase, you can use FlyNumber's cloud-based PBX system to manage incoming calls effectively. Set up a call menu to direct callers automatically—like pressing 1 for sales, or 2 for direct inquiries about maple products. This helps streamline calls even in peak times, letting you focus more on your syrup production and less on managing calls.

Is it possible to integrate FlyNumber with a VoIP system I’m already using for my Melrose local business?

Yes, you can send FlyNumber calls to any VoIP solution you're using, such as Asterisk, 3CX, FreePBX, or FreeSwitch. This integration allows you to maintain the existing workflow of your Melrose business while leveraging FlyNumber's versatile call forwarding and management features.

Can FlyNumber assist in routing calls based on the time, perhaps after the Melrose Victorian Fair ends?

Certainly! FlyNumber allows you to route phone calls based on the time of day. So, after a long day at the Melrose Victorian Fair, you can reroute calls to your mobile or even to voicemail. This flexible scheduling ensures that you can enjoy local events while still managing your business calls efficiently.

How can I handle multiple business locations in Melrose with FlyNumber?

With FlyNumber, managing multiple locations becomes straightforward. You can manage multiple FlyNumbers on the same account, each configurable with unique settings suitable for each location. Whether your shops are on Main Street or Essex Street, each can have its dedicated number and tailored call routing options.

What happens to after-hours calls from my clients in Melrose?

For after-hours calls, FlyNumber’s cloud phone system can automatically save voicemails, greetings, or call recordings to the cloud. You can set up your system to forward these calls to voicemail during non-business hours, ensuring that your Melrose clients are attended to professionally, and you can follow up with them at your earliest convenience.
