I am not a client, but I have a Toll Free Number with another carrier. How do I sign up?
The first step is to Transfer your existing Toll Free Number to Callture. Once your number is fully transferred and working, then you can begin the process of activating your new PBX system.

Can I decide what type of Toll Free Number I want?
Yes, you can choose from 4 types of Toll Free Numbers when you sign up.   

1) Random – If you want a generic Toll Free Number, the system will assign you a number when you sign up. These numbers are guaranteed to work.

2) List– Callture owns 1000's of numbers that we allow our clients to choose from. These numbers are guaranteed to work.

3) Vanity Number – Vanity Number – Some clients want their Toll Free number to spell out a word or phrase. Example – 1-800-Flowers. There is no guarantee that the number will be yours, as someone else may have taken it already. These numbers take 4-7 business days to fully activate.

4) Transfer – If you already have a Toll Free Number with another carrier, you may transfer the number to Callture. Simply choose this option, and you will be given instructions on how to complete the process. Transferring Toll Free Numbers takes up to 2 weeks    

How does your Voicemail work?
When you sign up for our PBX, you are immediately given access to our Voicemail service. You will have voicemail capabilities on all of your extensions, including the Operator extension. Our Voicemail boxes have an unlimited capacity, but it can only hold a maximum of 10 messages at any given time. 

How long is the message length for Voicemails?
Callers may leave a maximum message length of 60 seconds.  

What are the settings for your Voicemail?
Our voicemail has 3 options for our users.

1) Disabled – The voicemail is turned off, and no messages will be left
2) Enabled – This is the primary use of the voicemail. Clients can determine how many rings they want to have before their voicemail picks up. You can also record a personal greeting.
3) Forced – This will bypass the ring-to number. It is essentially a voicemail box, when the caller dials your extension, they will immediately be transferred to your voicemail.
