Forward your business number

Keep the number your customers already know. You just forward it to the new receptionist number — whenever it suits you.

How it fits together

You keep your business number. When you're ready, you forward it to the receptionist number you got when you went live — then phoneless answers the calls that come in.

You dial the code on the phone that owns your business number. You'll find your receptionist number on the go-live page and in the portal.

You decide when

Forward always, or only evenings and weekends — it's up to you. You can turn forwarding off and on whenever you like, and your number stays yours.

The codes below turn forwarding on and off. We show them with an example number — replace it with your own receptionist number.

Norwegian carriers

Receptionist number (example)+47 21 00 00 01
