What it is

With automatic benching on, the dialer takes a number out of rotation when its answer rate collapses compared with your other numbers. It comes back on its own after a set number of days.

Where to find it

Settings > Number health. Also Numbers > Number health.

Steps

  1. Click your name in the top right and choose Dialer settings, then Number health.
  2. Tick Bench a number automatically when its answer rate collapses.
    Settings, Number health: tick Bench a number automatically
    Settings, Number health: tick Bench a number automatically
  3. The setting saves right away. Untick it to turn it off.

Good to know

  • A number is only benched on at least 50 of its own dials, when it is answered at less than half the rate of your other numbers.
  • Never more than half your numbers are benched at once.
  • An automatic bench lifts itself after 7 days.
  • When you put a number back by hand, it will not be benched again automatically for a while. The row shows the date.
  • With the setting off, numbers are still measured and you decide what to do.
  • The limits shown on screen are the ones that apply to your account.
