Caller-ID works forwarding to a regular phone number

Update, September 2026

The anonymous-caller issue described below is resolved. Calls from withheld or blocked numbers now connect when your FlyNumber forwards to a regular phone. Your phone shows your FlyNumber as the caller ID instead of "Private", and your call log still records the call as anonymous. See Anonymous and blocked callers.

You can take any of our local phone numbers and forward the calls to any regular phone number in the world. Some forward their FlyNumbers to a local number, for example - a Canada FlyNumber forwarded to a Canada mobile. Others go international - a UK FlyNumber forwarded to the US. (everyone has their reasons)

We're excited to finally bring you the new phone system. It's HTML 5 based so there is no need for adobe flash (as required on our older system)

If you're currently a customer or you sign up before Mid June 2021 the PBX/ Phone System is included in the price of the phone number.

There are truly too many features to list.

Here are some ...

Call Menus
Phone Number forwarding
Time-Based routing
Phone-Number based routing
Call Recording
Queue phone calls
Create SIP Accounts

SMS Forwarding is Here
