Ask HN: a phone# for a foreign country
3 points by kris-jagasia 4561 days ago
Would love to hear anyone's experience with a service that lets you hold a phone number of a foreign country through a web based service. We are running a company that requires a Turkish phone number but we are relocating to Canada. Happy to pay for something that works well.

So far I've been happy with http://www.sonetel.com for getting incoming calls and voicemail-to-email at a reasonable price (no affiliation, I'm just a small time customer).
We use Skype to host phone numbers in the UK and Australia for our US-based company. We only get a few calls here and there due to the fact that our support hours are US business hours. But the amount of business those calls generate pays for the cost 10x or more.
cheers guys, neither handles Turkish numbers, wonder if Turkish telecommunications blocks it
Good point, I didn't check that before posting.

Probably what you already know, I see there you do have some VOIP options specifically for Turkey: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=turkey+voip.
