Keep your 041 number
Nothing to port. Set your existing 041 line to forward to your Silux Voice number — every call, or only when you’re busy or don’t pick up — and callers in Gqeberha keep dialling the number on your van, sign or website. Prefer a fresh number? We allocate you a local South Africa number.
A local number, on Gqeberha time
Keep your existing 041 number and forward it to your receptionist, or take a local South Africa number we allocate for you. It runs on Africa/Johannesburg time, so opening hours, bookings and your morning summary follow Gqeberha’s clock, and your plan is billed in US dollars.
Holidays: South Africa’s public holidays include Human Rights Day (21 March), Freedom Day (27 April), Heritage Day (24 September) and the Day of Reconciliation (16 December); a holiday that falls on a Sunday moves to the Monday. Set your own closures and it tells callers you’re shut rather than booking them in.
