1. What is TalkDigits?

TalkDigits is simply a phone number. The reason we call it "TalkDigits" has little to do with the service being "free" or that it's a spare phone number. TalkDigits reflects how the service is geared toward your lifestyle. TalkDigits allows you the freedom to be "you"...free from constraints. It is a communications tool that is tailored to fit your lifestyle.

2. Who should use TalkDigits?

The typical user of TalkDigits wants to live their life better. Daters can use TalkDigits as a dating number to protect their privacy. Audio bloggers can use TalkDigits to record their thoughts and automatically publish it on their website. Military personnel use TalkDigits to stay in touch with family, even while over seas. "Ebayers" use TalkDigits as a contact phone number for online auctions. Most people use use it to protect their privacy and screen telemarketers.

3. How does TalkDigits work?

TalkDigits is your personalized communications number. It takes less than three minutes to sign-up. When someone calls your TalkDigits number, you can answer it or forward your calls. Calls not answered are automatically forwarded to your voicemail account.

Voice messages can be retrieved by calling your TalkDigits number or you can listen to your voice mail by clicking on your mp3 email attachment.

4. How much does TalkDigits cost?

Our free service costs nothing! When you sign up for a TalkDigits account, you will be provided with a unique unlisted phone number, which you can begin using.

Each number provides unlimited inbound calling and comes with 60 minutes of free outbound calling, which may be recharged with your credit card. Premium local numbers and toll-free numbers can be purchased at low monthly rates.

5. Why is TalkDigits free?

There are 3 reasons why we provide the services for free. The first reason is that we want you to be a loyal user first before becoming a customer. The second reason is that we want knowledgeable users. The third reason our services are free is that "free" is the best marketing tool in the world.

6. Why should I upgrade?

Go Local. Live in Chicago? Having a local number eliminates the question of why you are using a number from "Timbuktu". On the flip side, why not have a London number that rings in Chicago? Getting a local number is personal and professional.

7. Do I need special software?

No, software is not a requirement of our services. TalkDigits can be used to call forward to any standard telephone, cell phone or VoIP device. If you decide to use our software phone client, simply download it from our website and follow the instructions to configure it.

8. Do I need special hardware?

You do not need special hardware unless you intend to use it as your VOIP phone. There is no hardware requirement to forward calls to your personal phone. Hardware devices and adaptors can be purchased to make the TalkDigits experience similar to that of most home phones. For best results, devices should be SIP (sessions initiation protocol) compliant.

9. Can I sign up for TalkDigits from outside the United States?

TalkDigits numbers are available to be used globally, simply signup and begin using it. All you need is a valid email address and user name to start receiving free inbound calls. You can receive US calls from anywhere in the world without having to pay long distance charges.
