Fax-Enabled VoiceMail
Phone Power offers a Fax-Enabled VoiceMail service. This allows your existing Phone Power VoiceMail box to Receive Inbound Faxes. There is no cost for this service.
By enabling this option through your MyAccount portal, your Phone Power service is ready to accept incoming faxes. With this option, there is no need for a second phone number dedicated only for faxing. You can use your primary Phone Power phone number for inbound faxes.
To Receive a Fax
• If you are expecting a fax, your phone will ring as normal.
• Do not answer the phone, instead let the VoiceMail answer the call.
• You will see the fax listed along with your VoiceMail in the MyAccount portal.
- If you happen to pick up the phone and hear fax tones, hang up the phone. In many cases, the remote fax machine may wait a couple minutes and resend the fax to you. Once the phone starts to ring again, simply let your VoiceMail answer the call. You may need to contact the sending party and ask them to re-send the fax if their machine does not automatically re-send the fax. The Fax attachment will be in the tiff file format. This is a standard file format for electronic faxing services.
