Call Forwarding Service?

Post by cheapedy »

I'm looking for a call forwarding service similar to google voice. I want a new phone number that I can forward to either home, cell, or work. Having broken and misplaced my phones in the past, I don't prefer to carry expensive phones. I simply want to have a reliable number for all my important stuff that will ring any phone I have at the moment. Not a fan of google, so I prefer a pay service. Tried a local company called Telzio the past month, but they gave me a re-used number and got a ton of spam calls that used up my credits. Anveo seems to be recommended a lot, but I can't find many reviews on it. Grasshopper seems to be most popular, though Anveo provides the pricing I desire. Are there any Anveo users here? What service do many of you prefer?

not exactly the same, but we use OOMA for our home landline, and it lets us forward to a cell or their mobile app. They also claim to integrate with Google Voice although we are not using that

Why do you prefer a paid service when Google voice works perfectly and it's free? You can also port an existing number there for something like $10.
