Your Phone Number

Your phone number is very important, it gives your customers and vendors a way to contact you and your employees.

OfficeByte provides 3 methods to utilize the OfficeByte system while keeping your existing phone number. 

If you are an existing business, and you have used a phone number to advertise your company, and you do not want to change the phone number. 

You can call your phone number provider and ask for one of the following features: 

A) Ask to add call forwarding to your existing number.  They will charge you an additional fee and taxes for that service.  Estimated cost is $49.87 for the phone line and features,  Although you will have a physical phone line in your office.  You also may have to concern yourself about your talking paths, please see Talking Paths below. 

B) Ask to RCF (Remote Call Forward) your existing number.  They will reduce the cost of your phone bill for the phone number that your are RCF.  Typically the cost for this is about $20.00.  You also may have to concern yourself about your talking paths, please see Talking Paths below 

C) Ask them to release the phone number, to allow OfficeByte to assume the phone number.  Once OfficeByte has the phone number your monthly charge is $15.00, or save by purchasing a Productivity Pack (see pricing).  You will not have any issues with Talking Paths, see Talking Paths below. Please Include the following form: Request For Release Of Customer Information
