- | Pincher SAR uses both Telus and Phone.com to make remote changes to the Call Back destination possible. | + | Pincher SAR has a phone system called phone.com that allows us to give |
| + | out a permanent phone number that doesn't change when new people switch |
| + | into roles. |
| | | |
- | Caller
| + | You should give out your PCSAR phone number as "1-855-727-6825" |
- | |
| + | extension "3" for "Administrator". |
- | v
| + | This is a toll free number. |

| + | |
- | Manager(s)/Call-Back Person
| + | |
| | | |
- | (We used to be able to do this with just Telus, but they no longer offer the Advanced Call Forwarding feature we relied on.)
| + | I've set up the extension for you: |
| | | |
- | == Changing the destination phone number ==
| + | It's configured to forward to your home number. |
- | See {{subpage|Change destination number}}
| + | |
| | | |
- | == Help ==
| + | You can change the configuration yourself by going to: |
- | Phone.com provides
| + | |
- | online help in the menu at the top of its pages under "Support".
| + | |
| | | |
- | You can read further about our
| + | https://control.phone.com/login?role=voip |
- | use of phone.com [[Phone.com|here]].
| + | |
- | == Advanced == | + | |
- | Phone.com has lots of features and can do just about anything you can imagine a phone system might do.
| + | |
- | See the online help or talk to the [[Technology Committee]] if you'd like to explore them.
| + | |
| | | |
- | If you're using a complex setting, you might want to save it for the next time you're responding
| + | And entering |
- | to the call-back number.
| + | * Phone number: 855-727-6825 |
- | We can set up a special extension for you so you don't have to reenter the same configuration.
| + | * Extension: 200 |
| + | * Password: XXXXXX |

- | == Wrong Numbers ==
| + | Click on "Settings" on the left. |
- | Wrong numbers going to the manager on-call are inevitable. People misdial. People get confused. People have old or wrong numbers.
| + | |
| | | |
- | Because there are two entries into the call-back forwarding chain, the number of wrong numbers will be approximately twice that received on a typical single phone number.
| + | There's online help in the menu under "Support". You can read about our |
| + | use of phone.com here: |

- | I looked into P K F Medical which we occasionally get calls for on the call-back line.
| + | (You'll need to log into the wiki to read these pages). |
- | | + | |
- | They were a Calgary business which now appears to be shut down. There are no current listings for them on the web, just old yelp-like reviews/listings.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | At one time they had the phone number 587-315-0065. We've since taken up that number as a necessary link of our call-back system through phone.com.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | We get wrong number calls to this number which get forwarded to the manager on-call. Those wrong numbers will decrease as the old clients of P K F Medical realize they are no longer in business.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | The wrong numbers are directed to phone.com (as illustrated above). They should not affect the phone bill for 403-627-5804.
