Add a Phone LineYou can add additional VoIP lines to your existing account. Add a Virtual NumberAdd a virtual number to your account. Virtual numbers let you set up another phone number for your current phone line. You can select a phone number in another area code. This way if you have family out of state you can set up a phone number in their area so they wont incur long distance fees when they call you. Add a Toll Free NumberNeed a toll free number? This is where you can add one to your account. Calls out will still go out over your current number, but incoming calls will be free to whoever is calling it from anywhere in the US and Canada. Incoming calls will be billed to your account at a rate of $0.04 per minute. SIP CredentialsSIP Credentials allows you to use various other peices of equipment with your service. SIP Credentials are for advanced users only. PhonePower does not offer support for the use of SIP Credentials. Change your Service PlanThis is where you would be able to change the kind of plan your account is on. Manage Cloned LinesThis is where you can activate or de-activate your Free Cloned Line. Your account plan and adapter must be supported for you to utilize this feature. Change Your AddressYou can change your billing, shipping and 911 addresses from here.

Now you can give them a local number and they wont be charged international rates by their phone company when they call you. |
