International DID Numbers for an Overseas Presence

As well as UK area codes, you can take a geographic number in dozens of other countries and have it ring straight through to your FreeVoIP account here in Britain.

This is ideal if you sell into overseas markets and want customers there to dial a familiar local number rather than an international one. The call travels over IP, so there is no overseas line to rent and no expensive call forwarding — it simply lands on your softphone, desk phone or mobile like any other inbound call.

You keep a single point of answer in the UK while presenting a genuine in-country number to each market you serve. Pair several international DIDs with an IVR that greets callers appropriately and you have an instant global front desk.
