FAQ’s
Can I get SMS on my Grimsby virtual phone number?
Yes, your Grimsby FlyNumber comes with SMS. Incoming texts are forwarded to the email on file free of charge.

Full list of SMS enabled numbers here.
Can I use my Grimsby virtual number for 2FA or other verification services?
This really depends on the company/service sending the SMS to the FlyNumber; it's up to them to actually send the text. We can't guarantee 2FA or short code SMS will work. Texts from regular mobile phones should work fine though.
Can I use a FlyNumber to stay connected with my customers in Grimsby even if I'm traveling abroad?
Absolutely, you can! With FlyNumber, you can have your Grimsby-based virtual phone number forward calls to any mobile or landline globally. Whether you're exploring the vineyards in France or attending a business conference in Asia, you won't miss out on keeping in touch with your customers back in Grimsby.
How can I manage calls during the busy season of the Grimsby Farmers' Market?
You can set up a call menu with your FlyNumber to efficiently manage high call volumes. For instance, callers can press 1 for delivery inquiries or 2 for stall bookings, ensuring your community engagement remains strong, especially during peak market seasons.
Is there a way to ensure after-hours calls in Grimsby aren't missed when our local businesses are closed?
Definitely! With FlyNumber, you can route phone calls based on the time of day. Calls received after your business hours can be directed to voicemail or to an after-hours service line. This way, whether it's after a late night at the Grimsby Museum or beyond shop times, no call goes unanswered.
Can FlyNumber help me expand my local Grimsby business to reach other Canadian cities or even internationally?
Yes, FlyNumber is perfect for scaling your operations. You can manage multiple virtual numbers from various regions on the same account, which means you can have a local presence in multiple cities without the need for physical offices there. This is great for businesses looking to tap into markets beyond Grimsby, like Toronto or even internationally.
How can FlyNumber help a small Grimsby winery with its customer service?
Utilize the cloud-based PBX Phone System to enhance your customer interactions. Features like storing voicemails, greetings, and call recordings to the cloud automatically make it simpler to maintain a professional front. Plus, you can make outgoing calls with your FlyNumber, showing your winery’s number as the caller-ID, which maintains consistency and trust with your wine enthusiasts.
If my Grimsby business receives a lot of international calls, will I be charged for incoming minutes?
Not at all! When you answer calls using VOIP through FlyNumber, you get unlimited incoming minutes. This is particularly useful if you're in a tourist-loving area like Grimsby, where engaging with potential international visitors without worrying about high costs can make a huge difference.
