hey there...i'm needing help on this...please bare with me...
I have a Bell landline, which i'm looking at getting rid of.
I have Bell Sympatico High Speed Internet..which i'm not sure if i'm keeping, but probably will. Unsure.
I have a Rogers Cell phone, which i'm looking at getting rid of.
I'm wanting to get a US cell phone (with an American # - obviously) that will allow me to call anywhere in North America from anywhere in North America (this i have found)...
BUT i want to retain a local Toronto number or something of that nature that ISN'T long distance for my Toronto area friends, co-workers and family to call me on.
HOWEVER..the problem here is, that i've inquired into the Call Forwarding services of both Bell & Rogers, both of which would incure long distance charges on my local Toronto number, if someone called my local Toronto number and it forwarded to my US cell phone.
I also inquired into 1-800-go-solo.com or whatever it is...which provides a 1-800 number...but for it to be unlimited it costs $47 USD per month.
I also inquired into Primus Canada, and their call forwarding services does NOT forward to ANY American number at all, regardless if i wanted it to or not.
so my Question:
Is there a way to get either a toll free number OR a local Toronto area phone number that will forward my local Toronto calls etc to my US cell phone without me being billed long distance and that will be a local calling number for people in the Toronto area without costing me an arm and a leg??
I hope i'm explaining myself correctly...if not...please feel free to ask questions...as i'm really stumped on this.
Thanks in advance!!
