If what you say were true, I couldn't have a multiple level IVR where "1" takes to you another menu which has another "1" in it that takes me to another menu with another "1" in it!

Make the part in the brackets unique. Meaning [a2000] and [b2000] or similar. Then, from within your dialplan configure extension => 2000 in context [CompanyA] to dial SIP/a2000 and similar for CompanyB, making exten => 2000 in context [CompanyB] dial SIP/b2000. This entire topic has been discussed multiple times on the list. Please read the archives, use google and the 'site:' argument. -Chris PS: Remember that a DEVICE is NOT an EXTENSION!
