NXXNXXXXXX is the correct format of CallerID numbers in NANPA.   The leading 1 
is not part of any NANPA phone number.   Toll free "area codes" are also not 
valid for CallerID.

I wrote earlier today about a new PRI installation in the Caribbean, where all 
outbound calls are functioning fine *except* calls to Sprint phone numbers, 
which get rejected immediately as "busy".

I don't know what expectations for CLID your carrier might have, or for that 
matter the upstream carrier, however, we found through our CLEC here in the US 
that while the CLEC was happy to take e.164 formatted numbers from us as CLID, 
Global Crossing would reject them further upstream resulting in our calls to 
many toll frees being rejected.

Switching to 10 digit CLID on all outbound calls through that PRI solved the 
problem.

I don't know if this is your problem but be sure your CLID is in the most 
simple format possible for your region to help rule it out.

This makes me curious... what *is* the simplest format possible for NANPA 
numbers?  I'm sure there must be a spec to conform to.  Can anyone point me to 
it?

Cheers,
