Thanks for that technical insights!

I am aware of phone number forwarders. I use them for company phone numbers.

As I said with Google Voice it solves the problem to the biggest extend.

But you as an expert might know that… Are there any services that offer me a Global Number that won't require "international call" charges from international people who call me ? Would this even be technically possible?

I'm sure there's someone out there that does it, but you'd have to pay the charges instead of your customer. Call routing is designed to make money first and route calls second.

Hm sounds as efficient as sticking with one number no matter where you are and accepting roaming.
