For example, your daughter is going to school in Ottawa
and both you and her boyfriend live in Sudbury. You realize
that there will be a lot of long distance calls made
between Sudbury and Ottawa. Instead of just paying the
long distance charges, you can get a vTone FX line and
everyone will save! Your daughter will have an ATA configured
with a Sudbury phone number that she will use in Ottawa.
She then will need to plug it into a high-speed Internet
connection. Presto, she now has a Sudbury phone line
in Ottawa. This phone acts as a phone located in Sudbury.
All calls she places to Sudbury and surrounding area,
she can simply be placed as a local call from her vTone
line. This means she will only dial 7 digits, no area
code. As well, when anyone from the Sudbury area needs
to call her, they can call her on her vTone FX number
and it will be a local call for them. In short, all calls
that she places back to the Sudbury area are local calls
and whenever someone from Sudbury calls her vTone line,
it will also be a local call. Imagine how much everyone
can save in long distance charges!
Now, if your daughter needed to call an Ottawa number,
she would have to dial 1 plus the area code then the
number because her phone calls all originate from Sudbury.
This means that all calls to Ottawa would be considered
long distance. However, it might be worth paying 5 cents
per minute while she orders a pizza rather than pay for
her two hour phone call to her boyfriend. Or, you can
avoid these charges by using this service in addition
to a regular phone line. The choice is yours.
You probably have several questions about the service
and we will be glad to answer all of them. Call 1-800-788-0363
today for more details.
