Call diversion services

Advertise a virtual phone number and take calls on another number – such as your landline or cell phone.


In addition to our live call answering solutions, ReceptionHQ also offers automated call diversion from a virtual phone number used in your business’s advertising to instantly forward calls to a number of your choice.

Combining virtual phone numbers with a call diversion service is an ideal solution for businesses who wish to appear larger/local, including creating a virtual presence nationally by utilizing local numbers in different cities that all route to the same place.

Entrepreneurial start-ups and home-based businesses can also use call diversion services to maintain privacy of a cell phone or home phone number while keeping business expenses to a minimum.

Diversions can even be set to a schedule, such as forwarding to different numbers at different times of day. For example, diverting business calls to a cell phone or landline during the day but to voicemail after hours.

FAQs

A call diversion service essentially enables you to divert one phone number to another.  For example, if you want to keep your cell phone number private, but need to use it for your business, you can advertise a business number (like a toll-free number) and divert the calls from this number to your cell phone.  Your callers will only ever know the advertised number and you’ll be able to see whether the incoming call is personal or business in nature.

The most common reasons for using a call diversion service are:

  1. The opportunity for your business to have a presence in another state so you are more appealing to local customers.
  2. The ability to keep your cell phone number private when you are operating a business from your personal phone (you can advertise a local or national number, and still receive the calls on your mobile).
  3. The ability to run several businesses with different customer facing numbers, but still have all calls answered on one number.

The MessageCenter Divert service includes a local phone number and can be set up instantly for as little as $20/month.  A call diversion service provides a very quick and cost-effective way to appear larger, start up a new business or gain an interstate or national presence.

If you have a live call answering service attached, our professional receptionists will answer your calls (either all calls or only when you are busy).  If you have a voicemail to email service, your voicemail messages will be sent to you via email.  Otherwise, your calls will be managed by your existing call answering solution, for example, on a cell phone, your calls would typically go through to a voicemail service if unanswered.

Yes.  When you sign up, you’ll gain access to a client portal and moblie application for managing your MessageCenter Divert service.  Using these tools, you can instantly change the number your calls are being diverted to.  Our customer service team is also able to make these changes for you during business hours.

No, there are no set up fees for a call diversion service.  The cost of a local phone number is included in your MessageCenter Divert monthly subscription.

Yes. Your MessageCenter Divert service includes the provision of a local number in your preferred location. While there are add-on options available, you don’t need any other services to get started.  Simply signup, tell us which number you want your calls diverted to and you’ll be receiving calls instantly.

Call diversion costs just $20 per month on the MessageCenter Divert package, which includes a local number.  You may add additional local numbers or a toll-free number to your service at any time for an additional monthly fee.  Call charges also apply, based on call durations.
