I'm quite happy with iax.cc (Sixtel). I don't have DIDs with them but use them for outbound and have no complaints. Whenever I've contacted support I've received a reply the same day. Perhaps they prioritize their support email based on whether or not you have an account with them? They match up inbound support messages with your email address to check if its associated with an account.

Anyhow, I might obtain DIDs from them sometime soon if Voicepulse doesn't get their act together and gets inbound DTMF working properly over IAX. It's been almost two months since I first reported the problem and they just reply that they have to perform several software upgrades over a 2-4 week period. Jeez. I can't recommend Voicepulse either right now as I have no intention of switching back to SIP (from IAX) for termination.

The funny thing is that I have ended up using FWD the most because of their toll free gateway. I'm constantly amazed at the clarity of those calls. But then again I'm constantly amazed at the clarity of any of my calls through Asterisk vs. say my residential phone services via Vonage and Broadvox.

I took them up on their offer for a refund. IMHO they shouldn't offer
* service at all. Even outgoing calls aren't handled properly. Lots of
making progress - no answer results.

Others have suggested iax.cc. However, they haven't repsonded to my
email (over 2 days now) and I can't get through to them over the phone
or IM. Not very promising.

All I want is a toll free DID that works on * and isn't too expensive.
Any suggestions for a provider? I don't even care if it can be ported
away!

Based on the support and management responses that have been posted to
this list it doesn't sound to me (at least) like LiveVoip really wants
business from * users anyhow. They blame a lot of problems on * and are
quick to offer a refund. There are plenty of DID providers that are
more asterisk-friendly.

Finally got a reply from LV support. Not what I was hoping for.
Hopefully they will file a bug with Digium since they investigated the
issue.... not holding my breath.


Since this is such basic * functionality that they can't seem to
accomplish I would think twice before aquiring DID's from them.

Our people have looked into this matter over the past few days. They
tell me
that it is a problem with Asterisk.
We are not going to be able to help you with this. If you would like a
refund so that you can migrate to another
service provider we will be happy to do so. With each rev. of Asterisk
more
and more improvements are made.
At some point these issues may resolve but, for the time being it is
not a
problem we can help you with.
