Call Forwarding

Hi

I currently have a hosted IVR system. I'm looking for ways to get call forwarding to the US, i.e. someone on my system can be transferred to an american number.

I was thinking on the lines of a virtual number with call forwarding, but I'm having trouble finding a virtual number provider which I can connect to with IP address and with unlimited forwarding to the US.

Any idea's?

Thanks!

    I can't seem to find one with unlimited forwarding to US numbers.

    Maybe it could work with google voice. Does anyone know a free way to get a SIP address for a google voice number?

    And why does google voice not allow registration outside the US?

    What is stopping you doing this with the current system ?


    eg, having the US number, in full format (001 - xxx-xxxxxxx) as one of your options on the IVR
    Obviously you will be liable for the cost of the forward however

    Well obviously I could easily do it at a big cost. I posted here because I'm looking for a free or cheap way to do it.
