What is Call Forwarding?
Forward your incoming 0800/0508 calls
to any device.
Our Call Forwarding gives you the flexibility to choose how and where to direct your incoming calls. When your customers call your business number, their call is automatically directed to your chosen answer point. You can choose from a range of numbers and locations, whether mobile or landline.
This means you never have to miss another call, whether you’re working from home, your office, or on the road. Call Forwarding means better service for your customers and more convenient call pick ups for you and your team. We include Call Forwarding as a standard feature with all our phone plans.
Why use Call Forwarding?

and level up your customer service.

As a part of the standard service we provide, Call Forwarding allows Zintel to send all the calls made to your Virtual Number to the device you choose. Browse our features pages to learn more about how call features can boost your business number.

With flexible Call Forwarding options, you can pick up enquiries from the office, at home, or on the road. Delight your customers by answering more calls faster.

Zintel Customer Case Study
Ray runs an IT company and spends a lot of time travelling around New Zealand for business and leisure. This meant that he missed a lot of calls and sometimes his customers couldn’t reach him. He felt like he was always apologising to customers for the delay.
Now with an Zintel Virtual Number and Call Forwarding, all his 0800 number calls come through to his mobile and Ray can take calls and service his clients from virtually, anywhere. When Ray’s not available to take the calls, they automatically go to a Virtual Receptionist Service. This has transformed his company and the way he does business.
