How to Get Started

The basic use of your new phone is like using any other – simply pick up the handset and dial a number.

If that’s all you need out of your phone, then your manual-reading is complete!

However, the handsets provided by MyNetFone have a lot of handy features to enrich your phone usage experience and make call handling easier.

To find out more about your handset, simply flick to the relevant handset brand in this User

Guide: Cisco (p.5), Snom (p.11) or Polycom (p.18).

Useful Features

Our customers tell us that there are a few key Virtual PBX features that they tend to use most frequently.

We hope that you will find these useful as well!

Voicemail & Voicemail to Email

Now you can not only get voicemail messages, but you can also receive them as audio files to your email address. If your mobile phone is set up to receive emails, this means you never miss an important message, even if you are out of the office.

Plus, each Virtual PBX user in your company has their own Voicemail Box. This means you don’t have to spend time listening to other messages to get to the ones left for you, and other people will not accidentally delete your important voicemails.

To set up Voicemail & Voicemail to Email for your phone, please refer to page 23.

Follow Me

Ever worry about stepping away from your desk and missing an important call? With Follow

Me, you can set calls to automatically be forwarded to another number, either landline or mobile. You set the calls to be forwarded either when there’s no answer, or if the line is busy.

To set up Follow Me on your phone, please refer to page 25.

Call Transfers

This feature makes managing incoming calls very easy.

With Virtual PBX, you can transfer calls to any other phone number, not just a phone in the same office. Plus, you have the option of either talking to the transfer receiver first, and then transferring the call, or directly transferring the call without waiting for the transfer receiver to answer.

Call Transfers work differently on various phone brands. To find out how to transfer calls on your phone please refer to: Cisco phones – page 7; Snom phones – page 14; Polycom phones – page 20.

Virtual PBX also delivers plenty of other useful features! Read through this User Guide to decide which ones are most handy for you.

Voicemail Setup

prompts to record your voicemail greeting.

Note: For Call Groups, dial 171 instead. ‘Mailbox’ number is the call group number and ‘Password’ is the PIN code for that Call Group.

The PIN code is available from the ‘Call Group’ page in the

MyAccount Portal.

Login to the MyAccount Portal and select 'My Voice Service’.

The Voicemail service is now active. To also set up ‘Voicemail to Email’ redirection, follow a few extra steps:

matically forwarded to your nominated email address and the voicemail content

will be erased immediately from our server,

will be automatically forwarded to your nominated email address, but will also be

retained on our server, which you can access by dialing 121 from your VoIP line.

To switch OFF the 'Voicemail to Email', select 'No Follow Me' at Step 2.

Accessing Voicemail

Each Line on your phone has its own Voicemail Box, so depending on the number of Lines on your phone, you may have up to 8 separate Voicemail Boxes.

NOTE: The Message Waiting Indicator will light up if new Voicemail messages have been received. For Cisco and Polycom phones, a small envelope icon will appear next to the line on which the message was received.

P. 25

Press the Line Key on your phone for which you want to check messages

An audio cue will inform you if there are any new Voicemail messages, and will provide a list of options to proceed.

Simply follow the voice prompts to listen to, save or delete messages.

If you have set up Voicemail to Email, you will also receive an email with attached voicemail files to the nominated email address.

Remote Pickup

The Remote Pickup feature is useful if another phone is receiving an incoming call, and you want to answer that call on your own phone instead (for example, if the other phone is unattended but you cannot leave your desk).

NOTE: Remote Pickup only works if your phone and the other phone are a part of the same Virtual PBX Account.

How to use Remote Pickup

To pickup an incoming call from another phone, simply dial ** and then either the Short Code

(similar to extension number) or the MyNetFone number of the phone that you want to pick up the call from.

For example: Phone ‘A’ has a Short Code of 2000 and a MyNetFone Number of 09001234.

If Phone ‘A’ receives an incoming call, you can remotely pick it up from any phone on the same Virtual PBX account by dialing either **2000 or **09001234.

HINT: Ask your office IT Manager or the person who looks after the phone system to provide you with the list of Short Codes for phones you frequently call within the Virtual

PBX.

Call Park and Pick

The Call Park and Pick feature is useful if you pick up a call, but then decide to move to a more private, quiet location.

You can park a call without specifying a receiving extension, and then pick up this call from any other phone on the same Virtual PBX Account and continue to talk.

P. 26

NOTE: Both incoming and outgoing calls can be parked and picked up again. A maximum of 10 calls can be parked at the same time.

Parking a Call

While on an active call, dial the following code on the keypad of your phone: *2700#

The call will be placed on hold and the other party will hear the ‘Music on Hold’.

An audio cue will tell you what ‘Parking Slot’ number the call has been parked in.

Note down or memorise this Parking Slot number (Example: 701).

The audio cue will be repeated, so don’t worry if you miss the number the first time.

Once you have the Parking Slot number, disconnect the call as per normal.

Picking up a Previously Parked Call

Find a phone from which you want to continue the call – the location of the phone does not matter, as long as it is on the same Virtual PBX as the original phone.

The call that was previously parked will be picked up and you can continue to talk.

Follow Me

Follow Me is a handy call

‐directing feature that allows you to forward incoming calls to

multiple numbers or to voicemail.

For example, you can redirect calls coming in to your desk phone to your mobile when you go out, so you can still answer calls when people try to call your office. The next step might be to redirect to your business partner's mobile or to voicemail.

Login to the MyAccount Portal and select ‘My Devices’ in the left menu.

Click on the ‘Follow Me and Voicemail’ tab in the top menu and then ‘Add Follow

Me’ and select one of the following:

• ‘Redirect immediately to Follow Me list’

on your Follow Me list straight away,

‐ sends calls to the numbers

• ‘Redirect to Follow Me on busy or no answer’

‐ sends calls to your

Follow Me list if you don't answer after a certain amount of time (you can

adjust the time),

P. 27

busy or no answer’

‐ sends calls to the numbers on your follow me list,

and if none answer, sends the call to voicemail.

To switch OFF the 'Follow Me' directions, select ‘No Follow Me’.

Note: The 'Follow Me' feature is free but does not include call costs, so if you redirect the calls to mobile or international destinations, these will be charged to your account at MyNetFone’s great low rates. The caller will only pay for the call to the original destination number.

Call Groups

Call Groups are a convenient way to ensure calls are made directly to a specific department.

For example, you could have a Call Group that includes all members of your Sales Team – you can promote the Call Group’s number and sales enquiries will come directly to this team, rather than going through the main reception line.

How Call Groups Work

A Call Group is created from one of your unused DIDs in your Virtual PBX Account.

Each Call Group contains ‘Members’. A Member can be one of the extensions of your Virtual

PBX, a normal Landline number or even an International number. When a Call Group receives an incoming call, it passes the call on to all its members.

Creating a New Call Group

To create a new Call Group:

button.

Two additional options will appear:

• ‘Extension’ – to add an internal line from your Virtual PBX, choose the Line and

click on the ‘Add Call Group Member’ button,

P. 28

• ‘External Number’

‐ to add an external number (such as a mobile phone or an

external landline number), enter the phone number and press the ‘Add Call Group

Member’ button.

Auto Attendant

Auto Attendant (also known as IVR) provides a spoken menu for callers to pick the appropriate option (e.g. ‘Press 1 for Sales, 2 for Technical Support’ etc).

Direct In-Dial Numbers

A Direct In

‐Dial (DID) number is simply a landline telephone number that is attached to your

MyNetFone service for you to receive calls on. All our business plans include a number of these for free, and you can get additional DIDs for a monthly fee if required.

Give your Business Nation-Wide Presence

Even if you move your existing number to MyNetFone, it can still be handy to get additional

DIDs! Unlike your normal landline number, you can select DID numbers in any region, of

any state in Australia or New Zealand, regardless of your physical location.

This means, you can set up additional DIDs in as many regions as you need, so your interstate customers can call you for the cost of a local call – a service customers appreciate & value.

How do I choose my DID number?

www.mynetfone.com.au

• Select ‘Phone Numbers’ in the left menu

• Click on ‘Lease New Number’ (bottom right of page)

1300 Numbers

Enhance your customer service with MyNetFone Special Service Numbers

1300 numbers, also known as ‘Local Call’ numbers, allow your customers to call you for the

cost of a local call from any location Australia-wide (New Zealand Special Service

Numbers also available).

Additionally, 1300 numbers offer many other benefits for businesses:

P. 34

• Give your business a professional image

• Demonstrate your focus on Customer Service, by making it more economical for

customers to call you

• Make relocating easy, as you do not need to reprint promotional material with new

numbers

• Help a business expand outside its local area by overcoming ‘location’ prejudice

of potential callers

• Provide a single, national point of contact for businesses of any size

How 1300 Numbers Work

1300 numbers are more economical for customers to call because they only pay for a local call from any fixed line phone anywhere in Australia to call the 1300 number of a business which can be located anywhere. For mobile phones, however, the caller will pay a rate that is determined by their mobile service provider.

The rest of the call cost is picked up by the '1300 number account holder'.

We also provide 13 and 1800 numbers.

For Special Service Number details and pricing please contact our Business Team on 1300 733 995

To make a payment, select the amount that you wish to pay, select the registered credit card you want to use, and click ‘Make Payment’.

Paying by Bpay: The Bpay section of the ‘Payment’ page provides the Biller Code and

Customer Reference for Bpay payments. Note: These payments typically take up to 3 days to appear in your MyNetFone account.

Paying by Direct Debit: To setup direct debit payments, please contact our Accounts

Department by calling 1300 733 995 and selecting the ‘Accounts’ option.

Auto Payments

You can take the hassle out of bill-paying by setting up automatic payments to your

MyNetFone account.

On the ‘Auto Payments’ page, nominate a credit level and after each billing period, your credit card will be debited with the amount required to top up your account to the nominated credit level.

For Example: If your nominated call credit level is $40, and at the end of your billing cycle your account balance is $10, MyNetFone will automatically debit $30 from your credit card and credit it to your account, topping up your account balance back to $40.

Payment History

View previous payments that you have made to your account. You can filter the display of payments to show only those that were made on the current date, during the current billing period, during the previous billing period, or a specific date range.

Important information

you should know about VoIP

EMERGENCY CALLS

With VoIP services, calls to emergency services 000 may not work at all times – for example when the power is out or the Internet is down. Emergency service operators are also unable to identify your physical location so you will need to inform them. We do not recommend using

MyNetFone as your only telephone service and suggest you keep another form of telephone – mobile or landline – available for calling emergency services. Due to the nature of the Internet and other factors which are outside our control, MyNetFone cannot provide faultless emergency call services.

CALL QUALITY

MyNetFone provides award-winning quality service. However, the voice quality may vary due to the performance of your broadband Internet connection. If you encounter this problem, check with your Internet Service Provider or contact our Customer Care Centre.

Conditions of service

Use of the MyNetFone service is subject to our Terms and Conditions. Please refer to our website:
