FAQ’s

Can I get SMS on my Bay City virtual phone number?

Yes, your Bay City 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 Bay City 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 multiple businesses I own in Bay City?

Absolutely! If you’re juggling a few ventures in Bay City, from a charming boutique in the historic Midland Street district to a bustling cafe near the Saginaw River, FlyNumber makes it a breeze. You can manage multiple virtual numbers on the same account, which means you can have different numbers for each business and customize the call routing and voicemail settings to fit each one's unique needs.

Will people in Bay City know that I'm using a virtual number?

Not at all! With FlyNumber, you can operate with a local presence. This means you can choose a local Bay City area code, so when you call your customers, it appears just as if you’re calling from a local number. Plus, with the ability to use the FlyNumber as your outgoing caller-ID, your business identity stays consistent, whether you're reaching out to clients in the Uptown or South End areas.

How do I handle after-hours calls from my customers in Bay City?

FlyNumber has a smart solution for you. You can set up call routing based on the day and time, directing after-hours calls to a voicemail or another number, like your personal mobile if you’re out enjoying a Saginaw Valley Naval Ship Museum tour. This way, you ensure that your Bay City customers are taken care of, even when your office is closed.

Can FlyNumber help my Bay City business look bigger than it actually is?

Definitely! Utilize the optional cloud-based PBX phone system to add a professional touch. Set up a call menu so your customers can be greeted professionally and directed to the appropriate department — press 1 for sales, 2 for support, etc. It’s like having your own switchboard operator, which can make even the smallest storefront seem like a large corporation.

What if I want to keep my Bay City business reachable while I’m traveling?

No worries there! With FlyWorks, you can forward your FlyNumber to any regular phone number worldwide. Whether you’re at a conference in Detroit or on a fishing trip on Lake Huron, you can receive calls made to your Bay City number on your mobile phone, keeping you connected no matter where you are.

How does FlyNumber handle voicemails for my business in Bay City?

Your voicemails are automatically saved to the cloud with FlyNumber. This is especially handy during busy seasons like the Bay City River Roar or the Tall Ship Celebration when you might be getting more calls than usual. You can access these voicemails anytime, anywhere, ensuring you never miss out on potential business opportunities or customer queries. Plus, save customized greetings and call recordings, adding a personal touch to your business communications.
