Frequently Asked Questions
Almost all calls will be answered within 3 rings. In the event of heavy call volume periods which happen less than 8% of the time (basically Mon-Fri at 8:30a-9:30a, 11:30a-12:30p. and 4:30p-5:30p), your line may ring more than 4 times before being answered by a Live Operator. Most services advertising 1 ring answering use a Recorded greeting to greet callers on all calls and some services use this during periods of high call volume.
We choose not to use a recorded greeting in any case as it defeats the purpose of using "Live Operators".
We will only use a recorded greeting if you dictate to us that you want your account answered in such a manner.
A copy of all messages are kept for 5 Years.
Yes, we do record conversations. All conversations handled on our phone system are recorded for quality control, training, and for archiving in case you may need that information someday. It has been our experience that with medical accounts this is a fantastic insurance policy provided which may benefit you in the event of an unexpected lawsuit. Recordings of calls are kept for 5 years.
Yes, we do. We currently do booking for Camp Grounds, Limo Services, and order taking for book companies and other online companies.
Reviews
Very kind operators! All of my customers give me positive feedback about Mother Lode Answering Service.
I am a one-man business and I do about 4 to 5 service calls per day. MLAS answers all of my phone calls and even schedules the jobs for me. I’ve been using their services for approximately three years and I’m very happy!
As a business looking for answering service I contacted my local Telephone Company in Pioneer, after approximately one month of trying to set up answering service I had never dealt with this much incompetence in my life!!... one quick phone call to mother lode answering service and I was up and running in less than 1 hour!! Best move I ever made! they have been a dream to work with and instantly responsive to all my needs!! Highly recommended☆☆☆☆☆
I am the owner of Better Altitude Properties. I feel it is important for our clients to be able to reach a live person after hours or when we can not get to the call because we are helping other clients. Mother Lode answering service is great to deal with and their operators are well mannered and well spoken at all times. They get us the message quickly and accurately and are very professional. They help keep our clients happy and our lives easier.
Motherlode Answering Service is a Lifesaver. They have never failed to take our calls when we’re away from the office.
