Here is their explanation: | |"Effective April 16th please note that all outbound dialing will need to |pass a valid *LOCAL* 10 digit number for your callerid. This applies to |callerid set using the Teliax portal or your own SIP/IAX user agent. |This change is the result of carrier push to raise rates on termination. |We do not intend to raise rates in the foreseeable future but must take |action to control our costs. As such, any calls passed through teliax |with a non-valid callerid (this means toll-free CID as well) will be |allowed to pass but with a newly generated interstate caller ID." | |Is this something that will be happening across the industry, or is it |specific to Teliax? This is causing us all sorts of problems, so is |there a good VOIP company out there that: | |a. You can actually call and get a hold of someone. |b. Offers US-48+Canada toll-free DIDs. |c. Central or West coast servers. |d. Decent rates, in the 2.0cents/min range preferably. | |I hate to leave Teliax, but this is pretty much forcing us to do so. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
