SMSIVR Billing System
Non-Geographic Numbers
Overview
MX Telecom can offer a full range of UK non-geographic numbers such as Free-phone 0800, local rate 0845 and national rate 0870 numbers. Using non-geographic numbers encourages contact from both existing and potential customers.
Non-Geographic numbers are available in the UK and several other countries. Irrespective of whichever country the calls originate in, they can be terminated at MX Telecom's IVR System.
National Rate Numbers
Using National Rate numbers, callers pay no more than they would for a normal call outside their local area.
Local Rate Numbers
Using Local Rate numbers, callers pay no more than they would for a normal local call. Here, however, the cost of the call is shared between the caller and the service provider.
Free-Phone Numbers
Using Free-Phone numbers, callers do not pay for the call. The cost of the call is paid for by the service provider.

Account Setup
When setting up a Non-geographic number in conjunction with an IVR Service or SMSIVR Billing Service, MX Telecom suggests sending the full details of the proposed service, including a call flow script, before recording any audio files. MX Telecom can recommend audio recording companies if required.
At any time these voice prompts can be uploaded to the MX Telecom IVR system via the Internet using a fully web-based interface. This can also be used to regularly update the content for a particular IVR Service.
The service charge is 100 GBP per month with 0.03 GBP per minute fee (based upon per second billing). Depending on the complexity of the service, a set up fee may apply. Lead times are usually 5 - 10 working days.
The MX Telecom IVR System also includes access to a full live online billing system that displays information on system usage statistics.
