osie Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Hi Does anybody advertise there establishment with booking.com. I am thinking of using their services but they need a fax number. I have one but do not want to use it due to the amount of spam.. we only receive faxes if they are announced.So, I would like to use a free fax number provider.I have just tried www.freefaxtoemail.net but it does not seem to work for France.Any ideasThanksosie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osie Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 Okay... well here is where I am at.I used a website called monfax.com ... it sounds like I am a very good sales monfax representative but sadly not.I randomly found it with some googleing.... no credit card necessary.. just a valid email address.I got a fax number and sent it a fax via our fax machine... it worked.. I got it... Okay, I think I have paid for a local call in sending the fax and so the company's turnover has just gone up a bit... but, in my view it does seem almost too good to be true.Any thoughts.. osie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillan Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I have moved this to the Hotel and Restaurant section because the OP's website shows it is a Hotel, the bookings.com website in mainly for hotels and I think the OP might get a better response here.

cassis Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 efax.com provide a free fax to email service and it works (free service is to receive only, you receive the fax as a .tif image attachment by email). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Belated reply but here goes.We use faxtastic.co.uk - £23.50 incl vat a year and they are brilliant. Dont go el cheapo - the free providers wont let you receive a fax from outside France and for this money you get an 0870 UK number which you quote to bookings. Never had a prob with them in 3 years.

Jason192 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hi, I use the booking.com website and they suggesting siging up for www.freefaxtoemail.net as they are free and there are no usage limits. Problem was I could not fax back as it was inbound only, however, they've just added a free outbound service that faxes to lots of european countries (for free) and you can send what you like, its called www.freefaxgateway.net and it look likes it ran by the same company as they now allow me to fax back after I've recieved an incoming fax, again all for free. It works for us, and france is free also, give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osie Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 I do not think this is entirely correct... As far as I know booking.com suggest using efax, which now costs. I had a look at the website and it looks like it may have just started up with a few spelling mistakes and maybe this is more of an advert.However, if it works then why not use it.... For booking,com you need a dutch number to be able to send you a fax, so as long as it works in Holland it may work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassis Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 If anyone has an internet account with www.free.fr then they get a FREE e-fax service included. It sends electronic documents to telephone fax machines and it receives faxes and forwards them to you by email. I mention it because it is not widely publicised. If you're with free, you access it via your email dashboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
