Re: FCC makes major changes to USF and to VoIP carrier paymentssaid by tom thomas:what about outbound only VOIP service? what would be the correct CID? This will be a problem for VoIP.ms and other providers. Currently it's possible to have a Voip.ms account without any DID. You can also have a Callcentric account without a DID. On outbound calls the 1777XXXXXXX account number is used as CID, but that number is not a real phone number. Will FCC accept non-real numbers as CID? This FCC ruling may force providers to require customers purchasing at least one DID. Also, when a customer have several DIDs, which CID should be used? |

I don't see outbound-only service as a problem. There are many such services that work off a website. I doubt they will all shut down. |

Principal of rule, if the rule does not specify for it, there is no rule for it. |

You can also have a Callcentric account without a DID. On outbound calls the 1777XXXXXXX account number is used as CID.... It turns out that if you have a CallCentric outbound service without a DID, the CID displayed is 1-626-771-0198, a trunk number. AFAIK, if you do the same with Voip.MS, something similar occurs, such as showing a 720 Denver-type trunk number. Arne, what occurs with Anveo in such cases? |

AFAIK, if you do the same with Voip.MS, something similar occurs, such as showing a 720 Denver-type trunk number. But those numbers are the same for all customers. Unless I have misunderstood the new FCC rulings, that should not be allowed. said by PX Eliezer704:Arne, what occurs with Anveo in such cases? Honestly, I have no idea. I always show my CID for all outbound calls. |

We may come full circle....
The providers may have to transmit a CID, an ANI, and/or a BTN (Billing Telephone Number). |

said by PX Eliezer704:Arne, what occurs with Anveo in such cases? Users can configure a custom CallerID number by following a simple CallerID verification procedure where Anveo makes an automated phone call to the CallerID number (to be verified) and prompts to enter a pin code shown to the user in the web browser. |

Ah, thanks for the prompt feedback.
Was curious what shows as default CID if the customer does not select one.
Thanks. |

Thanks. If a user does not have a CallerID verified and selected then we use CallerID value from SIP device. |

said by PX Eliezer704:Was curious what shows as default CID if the customer does not select one. I just tested by calling my Google Voice number from my Gigaset S685IP. Google Voice says: Unknown Caller EDIT: I used *67 in Anveo which is CallerID blocking. As I have DIDs with Anveo I can't test what will happen if a customer has no DID, no CallerID verified and there is no CallerID value from the SIP device. |
