|
Q. If this is free how
can your provide me with a sustainable service ? |
|
A. We receive our
revenue from the calls made to your 08664xxxxx fax number. Calls to
your number are charged at a premium rate per minute by Telkom and we receive
a portion of that revenue. In return we can offer you a FREE
service. |
|
|
|
Q. Each time I dial my
allocated number I get a message that says the number does not exist
? |
|
A. These numbers can
only be dialed from a Telkom line. If you try and dial it from a
cellular phone then some of the cellular networks will report such a
message or give an engaged tone. Some company PABX systems will also
block access to these numbers, as they would calls to cellular
networks. |
|
|
|
Q. Do I need to install
any special software ? |
|
A. No. The FAX is
sent to you as a TIF image attached to an email. Most operating
systems have a default viewer application installed. However if that
doesn't work for you, we provide a link where you can
download a FREE TIF Image viewer. |
|
|
|
Q. How long do I have to
wait for a number ? |
