[VoiceOps] SIP provider that will route to free conference services

[Alex Balashov]

‎I would guess the PDD is upstream LCR hunting through a large amount of vendors who fail to take the call before finding one that will take it.

6 seconds here.  Though I could swear when I tried it earlier it was even longer than that.

I made three calls with PDD maybe 2-3 seconds on Onvoy.

That number seems to work for me from Flowroute.  But it *does* take an awful long time to connect, like they are trying to go down through a list of carriers in their LCR table and keep getting rejected, until it finally manages to go through on a carrier that is a fair ways down the list...

We do offer conferencing, but these customers are needing to join large conferences arranged by business partners or vendors and they are not able to influence the service used.
 
Here is one of the phone numbers: 712-775-7031.  I have a carrier that rejects it outright and 2 that it just rings and rings and never answers.  If I call from my cell phone, it immediately answers and prompts for conference information.

And then, please do record that phone call!
 
If you give me a sample number to test, I'll try it on our carriers.  But on the other hand, why not just provide the conferencing service on your own service?  That's what we do; we've simply told our customers not to use them and give them conferencing ability as part of our services.

You could take, or threaten to take, the route of reporting your upstream termination carriers for noncompliance with the FCC's order on the subject. :-)
