 | [Anveo] newbie here -- test a simple voicemail only callflow? My goal is to port a number to anveo Personal Unlimited which has free porting. I have a simple call flow: Start -> Goodies -> Voicemail.
Is there a way to test a call flow other than making it live on your line? Ideally I'd like to see how it works before I port the line. (But I don't want to pay for a throwaway line.)
Also, if I do transcription, I still get the WAV file right?
Thanks, tlc |

You will have to set up a temp Anveo number for near where you live, and put enough $$ into the account to pay for it for at least a month.
Then you can test your call flows before asking to do a port-in.
Anyway, I have voicemail running on my Anveo account, and it does work. - It even eMails me an MP3 of each message left.
It would, however, be simpler to use Start -> SIP -> Voicemail , unless some other part of the Goodies matters to you - still, there are multiple ways to get the same thing done for most things in Anveo's call flows. |

I have a better (cheaper) idea.
Get yourself a free number from somewhere - IPKall, Callcentric, UKDDI, pick one. Forward it to a SIP URI you create in your Anveo (even unfunded) account. The SIP URI drops into a callflow that you create.
I may not be able to recall when the free porting offer ends accurately, but I can test a call flow for free. :-P -- DPC3825 (bridged mode) - WRT610N + Tomato - Panasonic KX-TGP500 - Asterisk 11.0.2 on Virtual Server Anveo - FreePhoneLine - Voxbeam - Numbergroup - Callcentric - VoIP.MS - Localphone - UKDDI |

Of course you are correct. I have just re-read the OP's objective. I assumed that the OP wanted to ring his phone first then have the call go to voicemail but (s)he did not. -- DPC3825 (bridged mode) - WRT610N + Tomato - Panasonic KX-TGP500 - Asterisk 11.0.2 on Virtual Server Anveo - FreePhoneLine - Voxbeam - Numbergroup - Callcentric - VoIP.MS - Localphone - UKDDI |

Looks like what you proposed would work. |
