Re: cheap provider for low usage & land line port It depends on where the phone number is ("rate center" = area code plus first 3 digits of local number). If you post that here - e.g.
613-832-XXXX - people may be able to give more precise suggestions.
Voip.ms can certainly do this for many rate centers. (I have an answer-only number with them that copies the voice mail to email and deletes it from the voice mailbox).
Cost is typically between $1-$2/month, +$0.015/min for the incoming calls. Some rate centers are more expensive than others.
You do need a soft phone to set up the outgoing voicemail message, however. (Uploading a recording for this is a long-awaited feature).

That sounds like a perfect match if the number ports.
Thank you |

| F9 would be a great match with their number parking service, for $1/month. VM is included, which they will e-mail to you.
My $0.02.

| Future-Nine charge a $20 porting fee and $3 per month unless the number happens to be in NY, CA, PA, VA, WV, DE, MD.
I suggest just go with Anveo and be done with it. Reliable service, great price.
