If all you want to do is receive faxes you definitely don’t need a softphone.
Thank! Still trying to figure out how this works. Do I want to order a IP Freedom plan? (free) How do I set up to get faxes? Also it looks like my phone number starts with 777, does that make sense?

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Yes. You want the ip freedom plan. The 777 number is the Callcentric number, it is not a PSTN number and cannot be dialed from a regular phone. However, with the freedom plan you should also be able to order a NY DID number for $0.

Once you have the DID you set it up to receive faxes.

On the Callcentric Dashboard (left side) you should see something like this:




Click to view Phone Number Forwarding, and then select to forward to Fax:



Another option is to use "Call Treatment" which could be used for advanced filtering of incoming calls, and just set it up to go to fax at all times:

These prices seem unbelievably low, and IIRC with Anveo you can also have it go to a fax.

Still a bargain at $1/month for unlimited incoming.

I don't think there's any free email to fax service out there. FaxZero and GotFreeFax along with myfax.com/free can send most short faxes for free, but those use a browser interface.

Doesn't eFax have a free plan? If you need to receive faxes to keep the number, there's a free fax newsletter you can subscribe to that will send one page a week.
