[asterisk-biz] Answering Service

[Steve Totaro]

That answered my question.  I just wanted to know if you also took calls 
via the PSTN (toll free or otherwise). 

I have an LD circuit so no toll free for me (but Global Crossing will 
give you the ability to dial toll free from an LD circuit if you ask and 
there is no charge, a recent change in policy but not offered, must be 
requested.  Alas, I do not use them at the moment.) 

I guess my other question is, do you have actual PSTN trunks or is 
everything coming in as VoIP through your providers?

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
