Mobile answering service
personalOperator is a service for your mobile phone. In addition to the usual option of leaving a voicemail message, it gives callers the option of being forwarded to a mobile or landline that you’ve nominated.
Benefits
✔ Fewer callers will hang up
✔ Spend less time clearing voicemail messages
✔ Callers get personal attention from a receptionist, colleague or assistant
✔ No monthly fee, just a cost for transferring calls
How does personalOperator work?
For starters, choose someone to take your calls and make sure they’re happy about it. Think about whether you want them to take overload calls 24/7 or only during specific hours. Also think about what should your message say to make sure callers only choose the personalOperator option for appropriate calls.
To set up personalOperator on your voicemail:
- Dial voicemail
- Press 4 for Other Settings
- Press 3 for Set up Personal Operator
- Follow the voice prompts to set your alternative contact number
- Record your new voicemail message letting callers know they can press zero to reach your alternative contact or stay on the line to leave a message
How much does it cost?
Vodafone personalOperator is free to set up and has no monthly fee. All you pay is the cost to forward calls to the nominated number.
