Wouldn't it be great if your mother in Spain could just pick up the phone to call you in the U.S. without paying pricey international rates and without having to mess with a confusing PIN code? Well, it's no longer a dream! With Voxofon Virtual Numbers solution, you simply purchase a number in Spain using your Voxofon account and forward this new number to your existing mobile or landline number in the U.S.
From now on, your mother can just call your Spanish number, which is a local call for her, and your phone rings in the U.S.
The funds from your Voxofon account will be used for the low international rates that you would usually pay and for the monthly fee for the virtual number (from USD 5 per month).
*Please note: Virtual numbers might not be available in some countries due to their federal regulations.

Travel with VOXOFON: Avoid Roaming Fees!
If you are traveling with your U.S. SIM card, your mobile provider will add a roaming fee to all of your incoming and outgoing calls. With VOXOFON, however, you have three ways to avoid roaming fees:
1. If you will be traveling for a long period, you can purchase a local SIM card. You can then install the VOXOFON Call Abroad application on your phone, if available, or access our wap version: wap.voxofon.com. If you are using an iPhone, simply go to our website and use the familiar iPhone user interface.
2. Use the "Callback Other" function if you have access to any local phone where you can receive a callback. It can be a hotel phone, a pay phone or your friend's phone. Our application uses mobile internet to send a callback request to our server. The amount of data transferred is very small (a few kilobytes), but you should check the prices for data roaming so that there will be no surprises. To use the VOXOFON Call Abroad for initiation of callbacks, you will need to allow your phone to connect to the internet. Make sure that at that time all other applications that connect to the internet and download – for example, your emails – are turned off.
3. If you take your laptop with you, make sure that you don't forget to bring along your headset with a microphone. Almost all hotels provide access to the internet from your room. Open Voxofon.com and enjoy our lowest prices on PC to phone calls.
For any other questions about roaming, please contact VOXOFON support.
