Vumbers are virtual numbers, which means that to anyone who calls it that it acts just like a "Normal" phone number, but they give you more control over how calls to that number are routed.
When you receive a call to your Vumber, your phone will ring and you answer normally. If you choose not to answer, the call will be routed to your special Vumber voicemail. If you answer, you will hear, Press 1 to take this call. ANY other action will send the caller to your new Vumber voicemail. Every Vumber has a separate voicemail box associated with its number. You can customize that voicemail any way you wish. When you receive a message, you can listen to it on your phone or view it and listen to it in your email.
