What is Call Announce?
Distinguish personal from business calls
Call Announce, also known as Call Whisper, is a feature that identifies which inbound number your customer has dialled, as well as offering your customer’s name. An automated message is played to you specifying the number the caller has dialled, so you know which of your Virtual Numbers they are trying to reach. You choose whether to answer the call or redirect it, giving you freedom to manage your calls efficiently, and avoid wasted time.
For an additional cost you can have a Play Announcement that announces the offer they are calling about.

Frequently Asked Questions
What number will display for incoming calls?
The calling party number will display on your phone handset. The ‘whisper’ lets you know it’s a business call, but still allows you to capture your customer’s phone number to make callbacks easy.
How long can the whisper or message be?
We don’t recommend making the announce any longer than a couple of seconds.
Can I have different call whisper message for different numbers?
Yes, but a new announcement feature is needed for each different greeting you want to hear.
Premium Feature
Keypress to Answer
You can now decide what to do with a call
A message announces whether your call is coming from any of your virtual numbers, or whether it’s a personal call. You can either take the call yourself by pressing any key to answer, or let it go to a personal or business voicemail. You can also divert it to another phone or your business partner by adding Call Overflow to your call plan. Keypress to Answer has a lot in common with Call Announce, the main difference being you only answer your call if you choose to press any key on your phone.
