VoxOx (News - Alert) has announced the immediate availability of virtual phone numbers to allow consumers to create multiple customized numbers that route to their VoxOx account as well as routing calls to other phones at work, home and mobile phones.

According to company officials, consumers will be able to select their virtual phone numbers from over 100 area codes in the U.S. and Canada and can conduct a “vanity” search for memorable digits and word spellings.

Erik Bratt, vice president of marketing at TelCentris said, “Those who own a small business, have family living in another state, or just would like to have a fun, memorable phone number, can benefit from these new options.”

“For example, a small business owner can now add phone numbers in multiple local areas that the business serves. Or, a U.S. resident with family in another state or Canada can now add phone numbers in those locations in order to enable family members to dial locally,” Bratt said.

VoxOx virtual numbers are being offered in addition to the free phone numbers that every VoxOx user receives upon sign-up. Each virtual number costs $1.95 per month or $19.95 per year less compared to other online numbers. Also VoxOx virtual numbers include support for inbound SMS and fax.

The company also announced the addition of free global numbers that are made possible through an alliance with the iNum (News - Alert) initiative. iNum is a special global area code denoted by +883 that is dedicated to enabling new IP communications services.

The global numbers enable friends, family and colleagues overseas to dial VoxOx users from landlines and mobile phones, and other VoIP networks worldwide at local rates or for free.
