Re: Reliable Outgoing Toll Free Calls without Reg Voxbeam passes caller ID correctly on TF calls.
However, if you are not also using their paid service, there may be a gotcha: the free $1 test credit that you get at signup might expire after 365 days, just like a regular payment. And, without a balance, even a free call might be rejected. |

| reply to nitzan said by nitzan:said by garys_2k:Nitzan, I route my TF through you. Can you accept 855 calls or should I still send them elsewhere? You should be able to. Give it a try and let me know if any problems. It works, thanks! |

 | reply to nitzan said by nitzan:said by ThaiGuy:Can anyone explain why Future-Nine and CallWithUs might not be able to deliver CallerID correctly? If you send us anything other than a 10-digit CID we'll override it. If you send a 10-digit CID it should pass through as-is. I was previously aware that F9 didn't pass cid, Nitzan said it himself. I just tested with one of my other test numbers, 800-Comcast. If you send a phone number of a customer, it reads off the last 4 digits. I couldn't get it to work on F9, via the open route, but worked on others like tf.callwithus. As others said, 800 all 4's doesn't work, but that number is picky about cid/cpn as there is a mis-trust thing going on with the carriers contacting their switch, so I don't take it as 100% failure. |

 nitzanPremium,VIP join:2008-02-27 kudos:2 | reply to ThaiGuy For the CID issue, please message me privately with: 1. How were you calling? (registering and sending calls, or sending without registering) 2. What CID did you set your equipment to send? 3. What TF number did you call? |

 | reply to Trimline We run www.tollfreesipgateway.com, Thanks for the support!
Not only do we take all of the toll free traffic, we also pay you for it!
I am pretty sure every VoIP provider limits the call time at 4 hrs to prevent run away calls. 
You can also visit www.teleinx.com for more info. |

FlowRoute cuts off at 8 hours, I believe. |

| reply to clearchannel Your VoIP services are quite new, anything else you'd like to highlight about them (any special features etc)? |
|
 | reply to ThaiGuy is it possible that 8004444444 (and others) are not working with passed CID because they are reading ANI instead? |

For a pretty page, use »www.teleinx.com/paid-toll-free/. With this service, you do have to sign-up first as they require your IP address to be entered in to their DB. |

I made another call to our TF conference line via Vitelity than ran just over 10 hours yesterday. FlowRoute cuts off at 8 hours, I believe. Which brings up a fairly good point. I wonder what the max call time is with these services actually is. I can safely say that tollfreegateway is 4 hours. What provider are you using for 10 hours? |

Problem solved. |

 OZOPremium join:2003-01-17 kudos:2 | You forgot to mention the extra hop to your SIP server, causing bigger latency and more dropped voice packets, associated with using the intermediate server... So, I'd say, problem added. -- Keep it simple, it'll become complex by itself... |

 espaethDigital PlumberPremium,MVM join:2001-04-21 Minneapolis, MN kudos:2 | I forgot to mention those things because they are almost all untrue or inconsequential. (Hint: Direct RTP)
But hey, use whatever works for you. |

 OZOPremium join:2003-01-17 kudos:2 | Untrue and inconsequential? Good for you...
May be you know that FreeSWITCH doesn't support direct RTP with Google Voice. It means, that, when I make calls using GV, I have no choice, but to send RTP to FS (and not to GV directly). If I'm on a remote site and call to a cell phone (even next to me, just to see how it works) - the voice quality becomes close to unbearable. When I make similar call from LAN, where FS resides, the quality of audio is noticeably better (still not perfect though). That shows me how important additional hop could be when I use FreeSWITCH as a proxy for audio channel.
With this experience in mind, I don't have any doubt choosing toll-free SIP provider, that supports direct RTP connection, over one, that require FreeSWITCH (or any other SIP server) as a proxy in the middle. And, BTW, why it's even a question, when there is a plenty of offers, not asking for a static IP? -- Keep it simple, it'll become complex by itself... |
