Are there charges for calling Lingo voicemail?
If you call your Lingo voicemail from your Lingo phone there are no charges, no matter what calling plan you’re on, and it does not count against your available minutes. If you call your Lingo voicemail from another phone there are no charges on your Lingo bill. In this case, you may incur charges for the outgoing call on the phone you used to dial your Lingo number.
Are there charges for using Lingo call forwarding?
There may be charges for using Lingo call forwarding, it all depends on your Lingo calling plan. If the number you want to forward calls to would be free if you dialed it directly from your Lingo phone, then call forwarding will be free too. If there would be a charge if you dialed the call directly, then you will be charged for each minute of the call that is forwarded. For example, if you are on the Hello America Unlimited calling plan and forward all calls to a phone number in China, then the per minute calling rate for China would apply.
I have the Lingo World Max plan, can I send
faxes from this line?
Yes, you can send faxes on your home plan. Simply unplug your
phone and plug in your fax machine.
