Glossery of Internet Phone Features
Call Return - Call Return is a feature that allows you to automatically
call back the last incoming call whether you answered it or
not, without having to dial the number. This is a Packet8 feature
that is always free of extra charge. To use the feature: Pick
up the phone. Press *69 and stay on the line to automatically
ring the last number that called.
In-plan calling - In-plan calling are calls
between subscribers using the same VOIP service provider.
Virtual Phone Number - A Virtual Phone Number is a secondary

Virtual Phone Numbers can be from most area codes in the U.S.,
thereby providing enormous savings to people phoning you from
that selected area code. You may live in California and have
a child going to school on the east coast. If you subscribe to
a Virtual Phone Number with your child's local area code, any
call the student makes to that Virtual Phone Number is a local,
toll-free call. All you pay is a small monthly fee.
