How should you send a fax by email via XOIP?

By | Uncategorized

The fax message is saved as a PDF document and then added to an email message. Only the pdf document will be sent as a fax message. So not the text in the email subject or in the email itself.

Send a fax by email in three easy steps:

1. If you do not yet have an XOIP account, register now for a free XOIP account. There are no further obligations associated with this account. Furthermore, your privacy is taken very seriously, because XOIP is a registered telecom provider.

The easiest way is to use the same email address for both sending faxes and for the XOIP email account. If you want to enter a different email address for your XOIP account, you must set the “from” address in your profile when you request an XOIP account.

2. The fax message is saved as a PDF document and then added to an email message. Only the pdf document will be sent as a fax message. So not the text in the email subject or in the email itself.

3. Send the email to [email protected]. Replace 311231234 with the fax number. The fax number must be entered in international format. So for the Netherlands, the fax number starts with 31. You can omit 00 or +. XOIP sends your fax to the fax number as indicated by you in the email address. In addition, you will receive a message from XOIP that the fax has been delivered or not.

If you have insufficient credit for a fax transmission, XOIP will ask you to top up your credit . The fax will only be sent when there is sufficient credit again.

Requesting an XOIP account and receiving fax messages is free. However, you do need sufficient credit to send fax messages. This amount is required to pay for outgoing telephone messages. You can determine the amount of credit that you need online yourself. XOIP does not require any bank details from you.

fax can be sent via XOIP against a one-off payment. This amount is needed to cover the shipping costs. Furthermore, no membership or other obligations are attached to this. For example, sending a page to the US, Great Britain or the Netherlands costs 0.15 euro cents. The minimum credit that can be purchased in one go is Euro 1.30 or around 8 pages.

Some differences between porting and transferring numbers to XOIP.

By | Uncategorized | No Comments

There are a number of differences between porting and transferring numbers to XOIP. You can read a brief overview of this in the blog below.

For example, XOIP can take over your current fax number. This takes around 5-7 business days. It is important that you take an XOIP subscription for at least one year for this acquisition . If you want to port a number from an ISDN2 subscription, XOIP must copy all numbers from this subscription. If this is the case, you are requested to inform XOIP of this.

All XOIP services are available on ported numbers. However, after porting your former number is no longer available. Faxes and voicemail messages are sent to your e-mail. This will save you the costs that your existing telecom provider will charge if, for example, your telephone is diverted.

You can use XOIP as a voicemail and fax service when your numbers are forwarded to XOIP. This option applies to both private and business numbers. When someone calls you, your telecom company forwards this call to your XOIP number. Your telecom company charges costs for this. These are the same  costs that you would pay if you called your XOIP number from your phone. The person calling you pays the regular costs of a call to your telephone. You therefore pay the calling costs to your XOIP number.

You can also use XOIP to replace your mobile operator ‘s voicemail service . An interesting advantage is that, for example, you can listen to the messages that have been left on your mobile phone abroad via e-mail. You do not pay the high roaming costs.

By transferring your number to Skype , XOIP first tries to connect the call. If no connection is established, the call is forwarded to voicemail. If you do not forward your calls, XOIP automatically records voicemail for you.

XOIP can take over your current fax number.

Having your fax number taken over by XOIP takes around 5-7 business days. To do this, you will need to sign up for a one-year, or longer, XOIP subscription. If a number needs to be ported from an ISDN2-subscription, XOIP needs to take over all numbers from this registration. If this is the case, you will need to send a message to [email protected]. They will forward you the necessary information.

All XOIP services are available on ported numbers. After porting your number will no longer be available for use with your own fax machine or phone. Faxes and voicemail messages are forwarded to your email. You can find more information here.
