Question 1

How do I get a 312 fax number?

Accepted Answer

Open an account, select a 312 number from the available inventory for free, and begin faxing through email right away. No fax machine or extra software is needed. Plans start at $12.99/mo.

Question 2

Why do Loop law firms and Cook County offices still require fax?

Accepted Answer

Filing deadlines, subpoenas, and official notices in downtown Chicago are commonly handled by fax because it creates an auditable record email can't match. For court submissions, that chain of custody is often the deciding factor. Send FAX Mail produces a delivery confirmation on each transmission, which firms keep with the matter file.

Question 3

Can a real estate office in the Loop close deals by fax through Send FAX Mail?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Executed contracts and disclosures can be emailed as PDFs to the recipient's number @sendfax.to and arrive as a fax on the other end. The timestamped confirmation gives both sides a record of when the document went through.

Question 4

Can I send faxes to 312 numbers from outside Illinois?

Accepted Answer

You can. There's no restriction on where you send from, so a 312 downtown number is reachable from anywhere. Attach the file to an email, address it to the recipient's fax number @sendfax.to, and confirmation follows.

Question 5

Does Send FAX Mail offer a HIPAA option for downtown medical practices?

Accepted Answer

It does. The Business plan at $54.99/mo covers HIPAA handling for Loop clinics and providers faxing protected health information. On that tier, inbound patient faxes stay in a secure dashboard instead of email attachments.
