Business number on mobile - virtual number or app
Hi
Has anyone found a clever solution for having a second line for business on your mobile phone (iPhone). I have to find a way to stop clients calling me on a Sunday evening and all through the weekend! It makes me feel sick.:mad:
Ideally it would be an app where you could schedule your working hours. Calls outside work times would then go to voicemail.
Or is it possible to have a virtual mobile number, so no need for a second SIM card.
I know EE do a 'pocket landline' which forwards to your mobile and can be turned off, out of hours. It is £10 a month extra. Ideally though I'd have a second mobile number, instead of a landline number.
Any clever solutions? :j

Have a 2nd phone or a phone with 2 sim slots?
A cheap phone with a pay as you go sim where you only need to make 1 call every few months to keep it active, 310 should last a very long time.
Use your current phone to call them but withhold your number.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -

Thanks - any idea of costs if I go the SIP/VOIP route?
Would it mean it only works when I have wifi or 4g?0
