One of the biggest conveniences of VOIP service today is that you have the ability to transfer U.S. landline phone numbers. This allows you to maintain the phone number that your friends, family, and business associates are already familiar with!  When making Aliya, with so many exciting changes underway, it is that much easier to know one thing can remain the same!

 

In most cases a number can be transferred within 2-3 weeks from the date you begin.  However, sometimes there are certain holds or freezes on a number that can delay the process.  Therefore, whenever possible, it is important to get started up to 6 weeks before the planned Aliya date, or departure from the apartment or home where the phone number is assigned.  Once a U.S. landline is shut down, the number is lost forever.  This can be avoided by starting early.

 

As a member of Nefesh B’Nefesh, all activation and sign up fees are waived!  There is therefore no additional cost to transfer your number.  You simply pay for the first months plan at signup, ie; the $24.99/Month U.S. & Canada plan or the $29.99/Month Israel plan.  You also pay $12.99 to ship the device within the U.S, and a minimal $2.99/Month FCC fee.  There are no taxes or additional fees and the monthly plan  recharges to your credit card automatically, for hassle free billing.

All the features your normally pay extra for are included, such as; Call waiting, Caller ID, 3-Way Calling, Call Forwarding, Reach Me…You login on line to manage your account.

 

A brief verification is done to check that the phone number, along with the corresponding address can be transferred.  While most numbers transfer easily, there are certain numbers that cannot be transferred.  With a simple fax of the first page of your phone bill, and completing a sign up sheet, you are ready to go!
