US Phone number service - GoFuckYourself.com

Anyone know of a good online service that enables me to do this

1) Post a US phone number on a client's site

2) People call the number and EITHER

- they get to talk to my client in Europe through SKYPE

OR

- they get voicemail and the client calls them through the app

You ever try google voice? It can do the "get voicemail and the client calls them through the app" part.

You can also forward the calls to your clients "real" number and answer there. Or just answer the call in google voice.

Google voice only works in the US though, right? Can I access it if I am overseas?

Magicjack VOIP will allow you to select an area code for a specific US city and then use the number anywhere in the world.

I don't know. Check their website. Nevertheless, even if they don't ship international, they have many retailers that may ship to you. And if you can't find one of those, then you can get it on ebay.

Can't you do this with twilio?

Does it have an end user app? I am under the impression that Twilio only offers an API for various front end apps

NatalieK · 09-30-2019, 04:17 AM

skype does this, i´ve a British number here in Spain

I had good experiences with Sonetel in the past.

Wide range of available US numbers, including toll free. Forwards your calls through VOIP or by just calling your number abroad. You can also route calls to their voice mail system.

They offer free trials for new customers.

I dont know, all my stuff is built so I dont know if they have built new stuff or not. They have a website. Even if one is not built, you could build it yourself or have a competent coder do it and then have it do exactly what you need.

That looks promising! I'll check it out. I like the TOLL FREE option and voice mail collection and forwarding

Can they format to a VOIP app on my computer or phone?

I used it as a VOIP solution myself to keep a regular (business) phone number while traveling as a digital nomad for a while. Don't know anymore what app I used for that on my phone back then.

Anveo - The Smart Way To Use Your Phones does what you want and then some.

I use it and it only costs a few bucks a month at most.
Real number in any area code you want, can receive texts, and even forward them as well to your non-USA number.

*Extremely* robust admin interface.

I have dozens of phone numbers set up like this using Twilio and a software called ACT: https://www.analyticcalltracking.com/

Accessible from overseas?

Does it let you have a TOLL FREE NUMBER?

Yes, from overseas and yes, they offer toll free numbers in USA and other countries too.
I just logged in to check and for USA they have 833. 844, 855, 866, 877, and 888.

Do they offer discounts for ANNUAL buys? Thanks for the referral. Much appreciated.

I use Kall8.com and TollFreeForwarding.com
both are great
You can forward the numbers to any other phone number in the world (so you can just get a skype number https://www.skype.com/en/skype-number/ and forward to that) and/or have a voicemail. It's super cheap, like $2/month for a 8XX number and per minute rates are super cheap as well

I have 100s of toll free numbers with those 2 and never had any issue

I also had a provider that could directly forward to skype without having to have a skype number, but they stopped doing that, but there are probably still some that offer that. Either way the above option works great.

There are also cheaper options where the receive installs a voip app and you route the numbers to that, but it requires a bit more technical knowledge

NO, G Voice works any where you have Wifi and you're on a Laptop. You can also add credit to your account, usually 1 cent per minute.
