[VoiceOps] Code opening miseries

[Mary Lou Carey]

I don't know of any new industry requirements but it definitely is a
problem. I know you can put in a suggestion with the NANC group that creates
all the guidelines, but don't expect anything to happen soon on that if you
do because they discuss everything to death before they do anything.

It would at least be nice if you could get ahold of the right department so
you could put a trouble ticket in easily because when you make it to the
right department, they know what they need to do and can fix it right away.
My experience has been that you waste a lot of time locating the right
department because they don't publish their internal numbers so you have to
start with their customer care number and work in from there.  

If anyone is interested in consolidating resources, I would be happy to
volunteer my website as a resource to store it on. If you are interested and
have information you would like to share, please forward me the Carrier's
name and phone number so I can put together a contact list and get it posted
on my website.

Paul,

  Both worked for me from my Broadsoft switch (bandwidth.com LD).

  Both worked from my iPhone (AT&T).

  I have an ear ache after dialing the first one. 
  I'd like to have my special dialing wand,  I mashed my keypad but your
system just hung up on me ;)
