Phone system

Our Voice-over-IP provider is 8x8 (pronounced "eight by eight"). This is a brief overview. You can find complete documentation here.

Here's our phone directory.

8x8 Work

You can configure how the phone system works for you using 8x8 Work. I strongly recommend you login at least once to see what you can do. Your account name is the same as your Nevis e-mail address. To get a password, click on the "Forgot password" link and follow directions.

You can also use 8x8 Work from a separate program on a Mac or Windows system; the program can be downloaded here. The 8x8 Work program can be set to automatically start when you login to your computer.

There are also free 8x8 Work apps for iOS (iPhones and iPads) and Android phones.

By using one or more of these programs, you can send calls, receive calls, and check voice mail using your Nevis phone number without being near a physical phone; all you need is an internet connection.

Physical phone

Dial 555 if you're using you're own phone; dial 500 if you're checking your voice mail from another Nevis phone. It's possible you may not have a "voicemail password", especially if you did not set it using 8x8 Work. If you don't know it, ask WilliamSeligman or login to your 8x8 Work account and change it there.

If you don't want to receive notifications of voice mail (by e-mail) or want to turn it off entirely, you can do it in 8x8 Work. If you wish, you can ask WilliamSeligman to make such changes for you.
