What about the text portion? Should that never be sent? I was indeed sending the '1', and I will remove that to see if it solves my problem, but I also have the company name in there. I feel like a newb asking such questions, but I've never had this issue before :)

"Company" <1NXXNXXXXXX>

Cheers,

NXXNXXXXXX is the correct format of CallerID numbers in NANPA. The leading 1 is not part of any NANPA phone number. Toll free “area codes” are also not valid for CallerID.

    I wrote earlier today about a new PRI installation in the
    Caribbean, where all outbound calls are functioning fine *except*
    calls to Sprint phone numbers, which get rejected immediately as
    "busy".

    I don’t know what expectations for CLID your carrier might have,
    or for that matter the upstream carrier, however, we found through
    our CLEC here in the US that while the CLEC was happy to take
    e.164 formatted numbers from us as CLID, Global Crossing would
    reject them further upstream resulting in our calls to many toll
    frees being rejected.

    Switching to 10 digit CLID on all outbound calls through that PRI
    solved the problem.

    I don’t know if this is your problem but be sure your CLID is in
    the most simple format possible for your region to help rule it out.

This makes me curious... what *is* the simplest format possible for NANPA numbers? I'm sure there must be a spec to conform to. Can anyone point me to it?

Cheers,
