But even in the middle of the night, when our phones are working and go to VM, be nice for the customers to have a catastrophic end-of-the-world emergency number that does not depend on our network to call that would either answer live and take a message or be able to receive a text. In both cases, then texts would be sent to us and escalated if we don’t reply.

They guy doing it did not know that circuit breaker was behind a panel in the rectifier shelf. If you didn’t know how to open the fancy door that looks like a rectifier module you would have never found it. Took me a few minutes to remember there were circuit breakers in there. So everything was down for some time. Customers wanted to know how to contact us in the event our office phones were down (which they were). I would like to have a number they could text that would then forward that text to all of us that are involved in tech support. I googled sms forwarding but am not really seeing what I am looking for. Ideas? An old fashioned call answering service would be nice if they still exist. Lots of younger folks prefer texting though. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
