Radio Controlled Car Thing

About 2 years ago, drunk, I bought a Radio Controlled car for about a fiver from ASDA. It was crap, not even worthy of being a Christmas present for my best mate's two year old dog.

So, what can I do with this tacky oriental toy? What purpose can it be put to?

Phone Numbers from dmclub.net

Telephone Numbers

Our phone numbers are UK based (i.e. have UK area codes), however they have the ability to forward any calls to international landlines and cellphone numbers. This means all your customers, business contacts, friends and family can contact you anywhere in the world by dialling a UK number, and saving themselves money on the call at the same time.

Features

We can provide you with:

  • A UK phone number which forwards calls to any number
  • Personalised Voicemail - voice messages sent direct to your email
  • Total online control of your number - change your settings whenever you wish
  • "Follow-me" hunt feature - forward calls to wherever you are
  • Real-time Call Log and Message Index - always know who called and when

How does it work?

  1. Someone calls your UK Number
  2. The call is forwarded to your phone and you answer, or
  3. If you are not available, a message is taken and forwarded to your email.
Number diverts can be changed easily as often as you like. Changes are made via a Personal Clubhouse created for you when you sign up. Here you will be able to:
  • Enter the phone number to forward calls to
  • Enter the email address you want messages sent to
  • Choose your preferred message settings, such as file formats for voice messages (eg MP3, WAV or RA)
  • View your real-time Call Log and Message Index to see you called you and when.

Which Numbers?

We can provide numbers in many UK area codes, and soon some International codes too. The number which is right for you or your business depends on your needs and budget.
