What are Rollover Minutes?
Rollover minutes are unused minutes in your call forwarding plan that accumulate from month to month. If you don’t use all of your allotted minutes during a particular month, the remaining minutes will roll over and be available for use in the following months at no extra cost.
How do I Accumulate Minutes?
Rollover minutes accumulate every month and carry over from month to month for up to 6 billing periods. You accumulate minutes when you use fewer minutes than the minutes included in your international call forwarding plan. For example, you have a toll free number in the UK with a call forwarding plan that has 520 minutes included. One month you only use 430 minutes, you will accumulate 90 rollover minutes from that month. The accumulated 90 minutes will carry over to the next month and will apply to your account if you exceed your included monthly minutes.
That’s why customers with constantly fluctuating call traffic consider rollover minutes a necessity for their call forwarding service.
When Do I Start Accumulating Minutes?
You begin to accumulate rollover minutes at the end of your second billing period. The rollover minutes that you accumulate with your call forwarding plan will expire after 6 billing periods. For instance, unused minutes in January are available for use until August 1st, or they will expire.
How Can I Get Rollover Minutes For a Service Line?
