<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1438875"><b>hfrisch</b></A> : I only ever use the e-mail option to listen to voice mail messages.  From a WiFi phone, since most messages come in when the phone is out of WiFi range, there is no useful message indicator, so the e-mail option is better for that.  The only time I ever used the call in was to set the greeting up.  The e-mail delivery works well all the time as far as I can tell.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/0"><b>anon</b></A> : Thank you for those links, yennyennyenn.  The Tygar page was quite helpful in setting up a AC-211-SR with our Voicestick N2N account.  The dial plan may need a bit more work since it still seems to need 11 digit dialing even with prefixing.  Any reason I can't prefix to a different area code than the VS number?<br><br>With the demise of SR service this week, and in spite of paying for the virtual number to continue with Teleblend, they killed its call forwarding to anywhere (on top of 3 1/2 weeks of paid Teleblend service with no dial tone on the main number) so we'll see if we can port the virtual number over to the voicestick account.  At least our main number still forwards correctly.]]></description>

The number of packets sent depends on the NAT Keep Alive Intvl setting on the SIP tab.  The default is 15-seconds.  In either case the adapter sends a Sip Notify or a Sip Ping packet every 15-seconds.  VoiceStick returns a packet that says Sip Bad Request.  At least this is how it works on my SPA1001.  The purpose, of course, is to keep your router from closing the sip signalling port.  If your router doesn't close your port you probably don't need to send the packets at all.]]></description>

I am not the only one facing the problem.

If you change ttl = 60m in var/flash/voip.cfg it works and you can register with VoiceStick!<br><br>I don't consider this a "consumer friendly" solution. VoiceStick is NOT the only BYOD VoIP provider out there (in Germany 99% of them are!!!). If it doesn't work - the "normal user" tries the next one.<br>I am not moaning - just trying to help ;-)<br><br>Just waive that "feature" - there is no reason for it. :-)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1123467"><b>kalimark</b></A> : I just don't understand something about the "free" VoiceStick accounts. If the accounts are loosing money WHY does VoiceStick offer them? From general business standpoint it seems like Business 101 that company would do something that makes sense for the company and it can generate some profit for the company. Otherwise it would seem obvious that the company would cease doing things that do not make sense for the company and, on top of it, things that are loosing money for the company.<br><br>I have two Unlimited Global and two free accounts with VoiceStick at two locations and until very recently when I read some of the previous posts here I was under the impression that all of the accounts (including the "free" ones) generated some profit for VoiceStick.<br><br>After all there are companies like ipKall that are making money on "free" accounts with DID numbers and Voice-Mail for number of years and lately almost everybody including some of the small and also big players like GrandCentral or AOL seems to be jumping on the bandwagon and giving away free numbers with voice-mail and other features. Some of the companies "own" their numbers but many others don't but still manage to offer "free" numbers in every state.<br><br>There are basically only two options for VoiceStick with "free" accounts. The first option is to make them profitable on their own and that would require obtaining the numbers outright or leasing them for less and making small profit on termination fees. Since the word "free" is so elastic that it almost lost its meaning VoiceStick may change the "free" requirements or impose limits etc. on what constitutes "free".<br><br>If the first option fails and there is no way for VoiceStick to make money on "free" accounts there is always a second option -- bite the bullet and stop giving the "free" accounts. Instead concentrate on the accounts that are profitable. If the "free" accounts are really loosing any money for VoiceStick then I feel cheated paying for two accounts -- it means that most likely I'm paying more for the products or services than I should have by subsidising the unprofitable services.]]></description>

Hopefully they will implement the ability to block outgoing Caller ID (*67) or allow you to configure an alternate Caller ID number so that return calls go to another line.  Anyways, that's what I would like to see.  :)<br> </DIV>Some of those and other features are nice and a product like VoiceStick needs some of those feature to stand out in the increasingly more crowded field of VoIP calling. I think the one existing feature that makes VoiceStick stand out already is the i2bridge -- in my case it is very simple way to use a cell phone to make virtually unlimited global calls. I have couple of Sipura SPA-3000 devices so I have been doing what i2bridge can do on my own for a while but I think i2bridge solution is great because it allows anybody this great capability instantly that otherwise requires some equipment (SPA-3000 or asterisk) and obviously time and effort to accomplish.<br><br>There are several heavy telephone users in my houshold so I have many VoIP accounts including four accounts with VoiceStick (2 Unlimited Global and 2 free) and have been using VoiceStick a lot for almost a year and still the i2bridge feature is the one that stands out. Fortunately for the customer but unfortunately for Voicestick (and all the other VoIP companies) VoIP has became a commodity so it is harder to compete out there without something that makes a company stand out and the i2bridge is an excellent feature that makes VoiceStick stand out. However, it is a feature that even now appeals only to a particular segment of users and unfortunately for VoiceStick the feature is becoming less relevant with time (the mobile plans are getting better and cheaper with time) so eventually VoiceStick will have to find another feature in order to stand out in a crowded VoIP field. I think one of such "features" should be reliability.<br><br>Having a need to lower the cost of calls to Europe (family) I have used VoIP for my calls for past 10 years and over the years I have used or tried most of the major (and many minor ones) VoIP companies out there and the main problem with many of them was (and still is) reliability. VoiceStick is no exception here and during the year I have been using the service there there were major and minor outages, problems or glitches.<br><br>For example from my casual observation it seemed that the number of outages or similar problems was declining steadily over the year but it increased within past month or so. The noticeable problem would be obviously lack of service (outage) and those were a problem when I first signed in about a year ago and then it improved but lately again I'm starting to notice more frequent interruption in service. There was one today (i2bridge did not work for a while) and last week there was also partial outage (at least calls using the i2bridge could be made then). In addition within a last week one of my Unlimited Global accounts was out of service and that was due to some weird billing error. I had to call the service again and I was told that due to some software glitch my $24.99 Unlimited Global account became erroneously overdrawn by few cents so my account was autoically shut-off. After my call this minor glitch was fixed very quickly and my service restored very quickly too but again this was already another minor glitch or annoyance that I experienced within that particular week.<br><br>With VoIP becoming a commodity reliability has to become number one issue for providers who want to stay in this business. I am paying $24.99 a month for VoiceStick because I find it a great value for my huge volume of calls to Europe and the added i2bridge feature. However, I do have two other unlimited accounts (US/Canada only) from other providers so I did some comparisons to see if there is a benefit of switching to VoiceStick. The cost benefit of i2bridge for calls within US is almost nonexistent for me and I think it is minuscule for most other users compared to the i2bridge benefit for calls made to outside of the US so at that point the US/Canada plan becomes just another VoIP plan and at that point the problem is it is "just another VoIP plan". At the same or similar price point there are many other providers providing similar service and here I think the customer is looking first and foremost for reliability.<br><br>In this segment the companies with the biggest customer gain lately are some of the most boring VoIP companies around. Those are the traditional telco and cable companies and some of the most boring VoIP companies like Sunrocket. Very often those companies give the VoIP users the least amount of features while at the same time they charge the most. Why do customer seem to flock to those companies? it seems that the number one reason is real or perceived "reliability".<br><br>So it seems that if VoiceStick aspires to compete with other first tier VoIP companies it must concentrate more on keeping the basic service reliable. Everything else is important but if the basic service is not there all the other great features do not matter.]]></description>

Call out on to PSTN or SIP and incoming is SIP only.<br> </DIV>I have the Unlimited Global Plan and I have found on my own usage that I use very little incoming minutes. The feature that I like best (and use most) is the i2bridge mostly for outgoing calls that I have set-up on the my Sprint phone to get virtually unlimited calls in the US and Europe. I opted for the second cheapest Sprint plan (the one with unlimited incoming minutes) because I like to have the incoming Caller ID intact. This set-up obviously discourages setting up forwarding of incoming VS calls to my Sprint phone.<br><br>I have the MG-3 box so I have tried the "cellular bridge" feature but never liked it as much as the "i2bridge" so I don't use it but if I were this feature again is for outgoing calls mostly.<br><br>At home I don't use the MG-3 box but prefer to use my own VS set up on Linksys or Sipura devices -- it seems the call quality is slightly better on the Sipura device. In addition I don't use the MG-3 box because I think there is some type of weird interference (which I did not pinpoint) when I plug the MG-3 box at the same time when VoiceStick is already running on Sipura device. Anyway, most of incoming traffic at home comes to our other numbers and the VS gets only the occasional return calls from Caller ID.<br><br>I'm not sure if I am a typical user but last month there were something like 900 outgoing minutes on my VS account and only 30 incoming ones.<br><br>With my set-up with the majority of calls made from cell phone via i2bridge something like you are describing may work better without the VS number if the i2bridge feature was able to transmit my Caller ID information. That would enable me to make my cell calls completely via VoiceStick the same way as before but the recipients would get my correct caller id info.<br><br>You could try some of these ideas alongside your existing services as pilot programs to simply test whether it works, makes sense, or whether there is any demand for it. ]]></description>

Even with today's smaller termination fees 10,000 incoming minutes per line would bring substantial income to a company. Most of the "free" providers out there still manage to make money on incoming calls with much smaller monthly incoming volume.<br><br>It helps if you own the lines (one less item to pay to someone else) but even without owning the lines a company will make money on termination fees if there is incoming traffic.<br><br>Most of the companies giving away "free" incoming numbers require at least some usage from those numbers -- they ask you to at least make a call or a few calls per month to help pay for the line.<br><br>And going back to our 10,000 incoming minutes per month per line example it would be absurd if a business customer had to pay for such usage. Any business with 10,000 incoming minutes per month per line, and with considerable number of such lines, not only should never pay for such lines but should be able to negotiate easily to get paid. Normally phone companies cherry pick such customers and pay them a portion of the income they receive for terminating the calls.<br><br>I believe the same market forces operate with VoiceStick -- Voicestick has no way of making any money on dormant numbers but most likely needs the users to receive some minimum amount of calls to help pay the expense of leasing the numbers and other costs. I'm sure that if Voicestick had a substantial amount of customers with 10,000 incoming minutes per month it would not have to lease numbers from Global Crossing -- it would own Global Crosing.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1438875"><b>hfrisch</b></A> : One difference I see between VS and Stanaphone is that Stanaphone gives out their own (8 digit starting with 08) on-net number rather as the SIP user ID rather than using the PSTN number.  For on-net calling, only the "private" number is used.  Dialing the PSTN number for an on-net subscriber will result in a charge, as if the call went out and came back in (probably because it did).<br><br>From what I can see, VS just did pretty much the same thing - dial with a leading 1 and the call goes out and back in.  Dial without the leading 1 and the call stays on net and is free.<br><br>In both cases (Stana and VS) the outbound call gets the PSTN callback number as Caller ID (as it should).<br><br>I expect that this gets them past the e911 requirement.  It may be worth a look for VS as well.  It could provide some significant savings - especially for my case where e911 is of very little value since I usually use my WiFi phone when someplace other than at home - and my e911 registered location is at home.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1438875"><b>hfrisch</b></A> : The challenge for VS is to become profitable while still having a service that people want to use and to sign up for.  Adding charges for different things (other than very high use) will not likely help that cause.<br><br>Stanaphone and Freedigits have a very similar offer - though with only specific DID codes (which saves them cost compared to the "go anywhere VS offer).  I signed up for VS as they did offer me a local number instead of the Stanaphone 631 area code number, and the small added cost per minute is no big deal since I don't call that much - though I may not be profitable for VS.  Stanaphone also goes for the "opt out" choice for e911, which probably saves them significantly without giving up any function that anyone uses.<br><br>The trick in any offer is to eliminate things that cost money but customers don't care about while keeping things that customer do care about.

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1123467"><b>kalimark</b></A> : I don&#146;t see what the fuss is all about. This is a business and as any other business it should make some profit in order to pay its owners (stockholders) and have some money left over to stay and hopefully expand the business. Last time I checked there were eight different VoiceStick plans (four residential and four business) and each one should be making money for the company.<br><br>The only reason a &#147;free&#148; plan would be subsidized somewhat would be if it makes some other sense &#150; for example brings enough new business but again this should not be a subsidy in a sense that a company is loosing money. The increased new business should more than pay for the cost of the &#147;free&#148; plan in such case &#150; otherwise it should be back to the drawing board for the company as to how to make money. If there is serious fraud etc. involved it should be relatively easy for VoiceStick to amend the terms of use and implement some reasonable charges when some reasonable amount of minutes is exceeded (as long as it is reasonable the majority of loyal users will not object).<br><br>The free number should not be the centerpiece of this company and besides at this time there are plenty of low cost and free DID numbers out there for anyone to use. In reality I don&#146;t give anyone more than one or at most two numbers to call me but I personally use at least a couple of dozen numbers from variety of providers of which half is mostly dormant. I actively (daily) use about a dozen or so of incoming numbers for different non-business purposes like dedicated remote access numbers for myself or different family members etc. or simply convenient dedicated free or low cost access for family and friends in different parts of the US or the world. In addition I always like to have some extra numbers and/or extra providers on hand (incoming and outgoing) just for backup, trying, or testing new services and the like so if  I need a specific number I will find it very easily whether at VoiceStick or somewhere else.]]></description>

It would be fairly brainless for such a customer to subscribe to a monthly plan without using the minutes. <br>It would equate pretty much with the same POTS non-sense contract all over again, where you pretty much pay for the "privilege" of having access to a phone line...<br>Such folks that don't talk that much would appreciate the most your service taylored to "their" needs. They gonna think "Now, this is a company that really thought things through having folks like myself in mind", and the more they are going to appreciate your service. <br>Maybe they will appreciate it to such extent that they will make all of their outbound calls through you (after all, most of our fellow Americans are about convenience, simplicity and...don't get me wrong, your outbound rates are the best comparative with most VOIP services, and with all the cell and POTS giant "squids" out there).  <br><br>At opposite, I'm sorry to say (and don't want to offend any "business" people out there) but if you have a thriving business and mooch off 15,000 FREE minutes worth of calls, then maybe you are "Hollywood" material and made a poor career choice. Only actors and stars receive that much s%%t for free...<br><br>One month = 30 days = 300 free minutes (10 minutes/day)<br>I found that number extremely decent.

It allows people to try out your service, maybe use it as a second line or while traveling without a big commitment.

If anyone has ideas as to what you think would be a good plan offer, let me know.<br> </DIV>Consider your competition and where you expect to be down the road.  In past posts, I have listed VS among the <I>lesser VOIP providers</I>, with no insult intended.  You do not advertise VS as a <I>full feature provider</I> as do Vonage, SR, VoicePulse, ViaTalk, etc.  And yet you have many more features than GizmoProject, StanaPhone, FreeDigits, etc.<br><br>If you are to continue to be <U>perceived</U> as a <I>lesser VOIP providers</I> based on your own marketing philosophy (essentially, your website presentation), then you cannot expect to charge the same prices one pays for <I>full feature provider</I> products.<br><br>As to <B>pcmeet</B>'s reference to your bizarre VS400 pricing, I made reference to that in a prior post: &raquo;<A HREF="/forum/remark,17754888">Re: [VoicePulse] Sad to be leaving VoicePulse</A><br><br>SR's 2-for-1 offering (when available) equates to $9.92/mo (including USF) for unlimited incoming/outgoing minutes.  Of course, this offer may or not be available in the future - and - it may revert to a 1 year plan on renewals.  Their limited 200 minute plan is ~$11.95/mo with USF. (In my opinion, the 200 minute is foolish in view of the perceptually puny time allotment.)<br><br>VT's 2-for-1 offering has been running relatively long term recently --- and mention has been made to me by CSRs that "member offerings" may be forthcoming on future renewals that maintain the 2-for-1 pricing (not a promise, but a point for consideration).  VT's <B>500</B> minute plan gives a perceptually more than adequate number of minutes (except for those households with one or more teenagers in residence) at ~$11.95/mo (once again, including USF).<br><br>Vonage and the Cable/Phone Company VOIP plans are obviously overpriced (whether or not one argues that they are more dependable).<br><br>Now, regarding VS plans and charges:<br><br>VS-Unlimited at ~$20/mo is the same as the N2N Plan (no monthly charge) using 1000 minutes/mo.  Why would one gamble on paying this monthly fee with the likelihood of using less than 1000 minutes/mo, unless they were running a business or calling center?  Moreover, VS provides <I>Unlimited In-Network Calls</I> with both plans.  So let's say I have two teenagers and each of these acnefied young'uns has several telephone pals.  So I sign up the kids for the N2N Plan and the parents of my kids' friends sign up their kids for the N2N Plan --- and, <I>voila</I>, the kids talk free for hours, and the parents can use the VS number for outgoing calls (let's say a few hundred minutes per month) on the cheap at 2&cent;/min.  Not a very profitable business plan.<br><br>Bruce, you folks have the real numbers to crunch --- but you may be giving away too much with the N2N Plan (and from your previous comments, it may be costing you a pretty penny) --- and you may not be giving enough with your VS400 Plan.  And, finally, the Unlimited Plan is not appetizing when compared with other <I>full feature providers</I>.<br><br>P.S. --- For those of you intending to use this word in future posts, please note the correct spelling of  <I>voila</I>. ;)]]></description>

Would be great to have that ETA, as well as a preview of what features they expect to be adding to the service.  Perhaps the system upgrades will solve some of the problems you are experiencing.  I know that doesn't help you right now, though.  :huh:]]></description>

It registered ok and the calls appeared to sound ok, as I was able to hear everything on that "disconnected number" message when dialing my old phone number. I found a new dial plan found to the following link <br><br><PRE>http://nyworldphone.wordpress.com/2006/07/11/unlock-linksys-pap2-phone-adapter/ </PRE>, <br><br>which worked fine and allowed even local dialing without the area code.

I imagine the Line2 5061 to 5060 is the same thing although it seems odd.  These are the port numbers used for sip signalling, i.e. the sip register, sip invite, and sip bye and associated acknowlegements.  They are not the same as the ports used for the audio which are the rtp ports.  In any event, your router in its wisdom is mixing up the numbers and and has a responsibility to keep them straight for the incoming and outgoing packets.  That is one of the reasons that a STUN server is used to help sort this stuff out.<br><br>There is no standard that the routers follow, every brand is perhaps different.<br><br>You can set any port numbers you like for Line1 and Line2.

The gal said she "sees" that I got a problem, although the account is in good standing.....whatever that supposes to mean or to alleviate the problem...<br>She saw under the account all the failed call tries for 2/17, 2/22 and 2/23 (all are 1-minute calls, totally amounting  60-70 cents), but she suggested I should load again the softphone, and then call back if I still experience problems.<br><br>The least to say I re-installed the softphone, but I experience the same problem. While trying to call back, and choosing either option 5 -Customer Service (or wait on the line) or 3 - Technical Support, the System replies after a while that "The person you are trying to reach for extension <B>750 </B> is not available, so leave a message...bla....bla".<br>The "750 extension" represents actually the last 3 digits of the Customer Service Number...... <br><br>It seems that VS has some (major) issues to deal with?<br>I just charged yesterday 5 dollars credit....It isn't the end of the Earth, but I want to use those dollars by making the calls I need to make.<br><br>At any rate, it might be possible that the softphone interferes with the ATA? Although I never had them both operational the same time.<br>When I re-installed earlier the softphone the link light on ATA's line 1 disappeared for more than 10 minutes  :hmm:<br><br>The routing setup is the same for both lines... as in the PAP's user guide: you have to enable the UDP 5060-5061; 53-53 UDP; 69-69 UDP; and 10,000 - 20,000 port ranges. I don;t have any other extra routing...]]></description>

In an exhaustive search of the World Wide Web (I'm still out of breath) I came up with this representative source for Linux vs Windows vs Mac (from the end of 2006) based on over <B>660 million users</B> world-wide:<br><br>&raquo;<A HREF="http://robitaille.wordpress.com/2006/12/30/" >robitaille.wordpress.com/2006/12/30/</A><br><br>Although it doesn't break down server/desktop/laptop statistics, it still looks like Windows is way ahead as of the end of 2006: Windows 86.1% - Linux 3.3% - Mac 3.5%.<br><br>Even without a breakout number for laptop users, these numbers would suggest that most of the known universe (and certain parts of the unknown universe, as well) still function in a Windows environment.

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/451342"><b>caseydoug</b></A> : I thought I'd add my two cents to this thread and report that VoiceStick's SIP implementation also will not support a UTStarcom iAN-02EX or an AzaCall 200 (these are essentially the same adapter). <br><br>The problem is the same one reported by several others above. Outgoing calls ring, but there is no ringback tone and no audio. Syslog indicates that after the adapter sends an Invite, it receives an Invite, and then the log reports "Local0.Warning state[5] found." I'm not certain what state5 is, but I assume it means that the adapter is already engaged and cannot respond. In any event, when I review calls on my Lingo service, I do not encounter instances where the adapter receives an invite from the server after sending an invite.<br><br>This would explain why only outgoing calls are affected, and why the call successfully rings, but does not have ringback tones or audio.<br><br>I am not a VoiceStick customer, but was trying to help another user to set up his UTStarcom.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1413867"><b>BruceN</b></A> : WOW, this thread is getting very educational! Good job.<br><br>VOIP economics 101.  Not that I am an expert but I do see the bills. VOIP is more expensive then you might think. The costs look like this, we rent the DID from Level3 (a good solid place for quality) We don't rent a single DID but we must rent a large pool. My guess is that we have 3 times more DID's that are in use. It takes a lot of inventory to cover (my guess) 96% or the exchanges. So if a DID say costs 60 cent the true burden is maybe $2.50. Next is the e911 cost. I know it is under $1, but not much. Then there is the incoming call cost. Level 3 charges to send the call from the local area to our switch in Atlanta. So even a call such as Voice Mail has an incoming cost.<br><br>So an account with a DID, e911, Voicemail and say 200 minutes of incoming is costing us (before labor, internet, fire insurance and so on) $4.50]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/395330"><b>christcorp</b></A> : This is definitely something that can get a little tricky. The people to ask about this is probably people like Brendan and Tim. They run the services, and probably know exactly the answer.<br><br>What makes it tricky 1st of all is the premise of a LOCAL call. Providers like Viatalk send all RTP traffic from the voip customer to their Server which could be a number of states away. From there, it is then sent to the called location. Even if that call was local to the caller, it could leave the state and come back in. The next thing to consider is the contracts between providers and backbone. For instance, while you consider Verizon as large, with a large network, I believe that Level 3 is the largest backbone provider in the country. Qwest, Verizon, SBC, as well as the majority of voip providers have contracts with level 3 to send packets around the country. So, a contract between a voip provider and level 3 could be based on a different agreement, then say an RBOC like Verizon or Qwest that might send information part of the way on their network and Level 3 for the remainder. The point is, voip doesn't really deal with "Local" vs "Long Distance". <br><br>Maybe Brendan, Tim, or one of the other CEO/Owners/etc... can jump in and explain part of the cost of moving a call via voip. Later... Mike...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/585929"><b>PhilAIV</b></A> : Yeah, sokhapkin misunderstood what you were referring to. I know whomever they get their DID's from (probably level 3) receives money from the incoming calls. The calling party's provider has to pay for access. (whenever the call is an interstate call that is. Local incoming calls don't pay to send calls to another network that is local to them.) Though Level 3 most likely doesn't pass along the money and instead charges voicestick per minute fees for the incoming calls.<br><br>New thought: Level 3 probably doesn't pass along the money because there probably isn't enough money to pass along. Take for instance a company like Verizon Wireless. VZW has a large network therefore any calls they send to other networks they would send out their gateway closest to the gateway the call is going to which is most likely going to be a local call and no money will be paid.<br><br>Anyone correct me if I'm wrong.

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1243987"><b>markosjal</b></A> : Just my two cents about VoiceStick. <br><br>I tested VoiceStick as I have many other providers. I always need to know what the competition is up to! <br><br>My main complaint is that on International calls I often received no call progress tones, just silence till the line was answered! If the called number was busy, I would hear nothing!<br><br>I recently re-tested with the same results! <br><br>Also I had sent a message to support, through your web portal, noting that the billed amount of at least one destination was different than the posted rate. I believe it was Guadalajara Mexico 52 33 XXX XXXX . I received no reply to that message. Accurately billing according to the posted rate is a basic customer need (and I would say a right!). It is a shame it was not replied to.<br><br>I do not want to sound too harsh here, but I need to post what I feel is the truth.]]></description>

We will find a fix and get it fixed for sure. <br><br>I have used this method of customer contact in the past in a far larger company I owned. There are many problems to doing service right.

Not that there are that many problems at all, but to have the man power just sit there 95% of the time, waiting for a call...<br><br>Then worse, the manpower did not fix the problem (shared call center) they just kicked it to us hours or days later.<br><br>Call in now and see how long it is before you get a call back and see who it is that calls you back.<br><br>Companies can only spend limited funds on support, and I don't think what we had was the answer, and I know sending it abroad is not the answer.<br><br>We MUST use our own people for this. Who is going to show more love to the customer? A temp at a shared call center or ourselves.<br><br>We are in a terrible business where EVERYTHING is price! We are never going to win by price as the other guys will just match us.

I am one of the key people in the company and I am silly enough to post my email up here.<br></DIV>OK, let me summarize complaints about your service scattered in this forum, I hope you will pay an attention.<br><br>1. Why SIP registration interval should be more than 1 hour? The client might be offline but your server will not notice it.<br><br>2. If inbound DID is called and calling party hang up, the server do not send BYE to the SIP client and called party gets dead air. The behavior is incompatible with voicemail and answering machines.<br><br>3. Unneeded REINVITE on outbound calls. When the outgoing call is placed, your server responds with <br>SIP/2.0 200 OK<br>c=IN IP4 206.165.50.116<br>t=0 0<br>m=audio 35898 RTP/AVP 0 101<br><br>Session progress audio use this RTP port. But when the call is connected, your server does REINVITE and wants different RTP port:<br><br>INVITE<br>c=IN IP4 206.165.50.116<br>t=0 0<br>m=audio 35900 RTP/AVP 0<br><br>What is the reason for reinvite if the audio server IP address did not change? Moreover, some SIP clients have problems with reinvite. I can understand REINVITE to forward the voice path to another server in order to not run the traffic through your SIP server, but see no any reason in REINVITE to the same server.<br><SMALL>--<br>&raquo;<A HREF="http://www.callwithus.com" >www.callwithus.com</A></SMALL>]]></description>

Seems that a small handful of banks need at least a $1 transaction to allow us to address verify. Only happens in a small number of attempts.<br><br>The fraud that we see is INSANE, and to avoid giant problems we use the CC to verify a new customer. There is no completed charge (unless you select to purchase something). I could write 3 books about fraud.<br><br>As to 24/7 service. We are in the middle of making some giant changes. We had a top dollar service doing level 1 support. Had them for a long time, but due to a service of this type having a giant crew and huge turnover they seemed to solve very little. We got lots of hot hate email!!!<br><br>We have brought in house the tech support and we can handle without a referral all level 1 and 2 issues. Level 3 issues are again done in house with our own network people.<br><br>What does this all mean. You will not be connected to a live person.<br><br>What we are heading towards is a 100% call back system where a customer leaves their account number and issue (or if new, leave just an email)<br><br>This will allow use to pull up the account, study the issue, and have a solid answer for our call back.<br><br>This means no waiting on line, or punching a ton of menu commands. It means having someone that knows what to do to handle the issue. A person that is empowered to solve, not just say no.<br><br>I did this at a company I owned for a decade and customers loved it. After all, you are just trying to get an issue taken care of. You don't want to have a phone in your ear all day long. Would it not be nice when you got sick that you could call the Doctor and later the Doctor calls you back with your cure?<br><br>And hey....

I have gotten approval from Voicestick customer care to use consumer level SIP devices (Sipura SPA-2000, Linksys PAP2, Grandstream GXP-2000, etc.), but they still do not allow Asterisk. <br><br>Now I wish they would just fix the problem of disconnecting incoming calls when the calling party disconnects; when the calling party hangs up, Voicestick's servers send the SIP device no indication that the calling party has hung up, thus, transmitting silence to and from Voicestick's servers until the callee (the Voicestick user) hangs up their phone. This creates BIG problems if you are using an answering machine, or an FXO card in conjunction with Asterisk.<br><br>I have also noticed that I cannot put calls on hold; For example: using the FLASH button in the case of an analog phone used in conjunction with an ATA, or using the HOLD button on an IP phone like the Grandstream GXP-2000.<br><br>If they would fix these minor issues, Voicestick would be a leading BYOD provider. :)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1156045"><b>Quattrohead</b></A> : I would LOVE to use them with Asterix, Axon or 3CX. So the question is, can they set the credentials required for authentication to be 'friendly' towards those programs ?]]></description>

<title>[VoiceStick] BYOD configurations needed</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17265786</link>
<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/395155"><b>w8sdz</b></A> : VoiceStick will soon be adding BYOD support. They would like users who have successfully configured ATAs for their service to post their configurations here. Both Softphone and hardware  devices are welcome, however Asterisk will not be supported at this time.<br><br>Look for future postings in this forum from one or more VoiceStick employees.  They seem genuinely interested in participating.  Please make them feel welcome.<br><br><SMALL>--<br>73 de w8sdz<br></SMALL>]]></description>
