1300 Routing Numbers

What is Routing?

 Routing is a term associated with the reverse charge 1300 numbers and 1800 numbers networks. 

Reverse charge 1300 numbers and reverse charge 1800 numbers are simply "piggy backed" onto your own telephone system. If your telephone system falls over (Voip mostly), then your 1300 number or 1800 number will also fall over.

 Routing as an alternate function

 Calls made to a 1300 number or 1800 number are routed to a destination telephone phone number.

 The destination phone number can be to a landline, mobile or VoiP number or any phone number in the world.

 Simple 1300 Number and 1800 Number Routing

 Calls made to a 1300 number or 1800 number can be routed first to primary destination number then if it is busy or it rings out, the calls can be simply routed to a second destination.

 As an example, a home based business often has simple routing in place from their home phone to their mobile phone. If their home phone is busy or rings out after, say 10 seconds it simply diverts to their mobile. All calls are received regardless how busy the home phone, this means those all important missed customer calls are eliminated.
