Questions from Canberra
Do I get a Canberra phone number?
You get a dedicated Australian number for your assistant. Numbers are allocated from our pool, and we favour local (02) numbers for Australian Capital Territory where available. Your callers never dial it; they call your usual number and it forwards when you do not answer.
Does the assistant have an Australian accent?
Yes, if you want one. The voice lineup includes Australian voices and you hear each before you choose.
Do you have staff in Canberra?
AfterTone is built and supported from Sydney. Setup is entirely online and takes minutes, and support is by email and chat.
Do I need to change my phone number?
No. You keep your existing number. You set your phone to forward unanswered calls to your AfterTone number with a short dial code. Your phone still rings first; your assistant only answers if you don't pick up. We show you every tap for iPhone and Android.
What does the assistant sound like?
Natural and calm. You choose the voice during setup from a lineup that includes Australian accents, and you can hear each one before you decide. You can change it any time from your dashboard.
