PRO-TALK
The world, in your hands
LANDLINE IN YOUR POCKET
Imagine you could carry your landline around with you wherever you went. No more missed calls. No more worrying about leaving your desk for 10 minutes. With a Pro-Talk account you can subscribe to a landline number and then answer the call from any location in the world. For example, you can have a London landline number and “point” it to as many devices as you want, including smartphones, tablets, VOIP phones, your computer or even a traditional telephone or mobile. Then, when someone rings the number, you can answer it on any of these devices! The caller will be charged only the price of a call to the London number. And the call costs you absolutely nothing! (see below for details)
You can truly carry your landline around with you and, what’s more, you can carry around as many landlines as you want! All from just €3 per month!
HOW IT WORKS
- Create a free account. During the sign-up process, you will be asked if you wish to subscribe to a number. Fill in the relevant details.
- If you are an existing customer, simply email us on sales@pro-talk.net stating which country/area you would like a number for. Click on the “Numbers” button below to see the list of countries we cover.
- Some countries require verification of your residence in the country before you may subscribe to a number there. Examples of this include Ireland and France. For more details, click on the “Numbers” button below. In these cases we may ask you for proof of residence, such as utility bills.
- Once we receive satisfactory documentation, or where no residency requirement exists, we will set up your account with a number from the desired location. Please note that this is subject to you having sufficient credit in your account to pay the first month’s subscription for the number.
- Once allocated, you will automatically start receiving calls to that number when logged into your account on a softphone or VOIP phone. You can log into your Pro-Talk online account and change the settings for each number allocated to you. For instance, you can set all calls to the number to be forwarded to your regular landline or mobile phone instead of your softphone/VOIP phone. In the case of forwarding, you will be charged the “per minute” rates for the number to which you are forwarding. So, if you forward your calls to an Irish landline, you will be charged 1.5 cent per minute.
- The advantage of forwarding as opposed to receiving the calls directly on your softphone/VOIP phone is that, with forwarding, you receiver device (such as your mobile phone) does not need to be connected to the Internet for you to receive calls. The advantage of receiving the calls directly on your softphone/VOIP phone is that, as long as the device is connected to the Internet (including 3G/4G), the incoming calls will cost you nothing!
