Any higher-ed contacts? for EDUCAUSE talk
by lindsey＠e-c-group.com Sept. 20, 2022

Sept. 20, 2022

Is anyone on here with good connections with Higher Education (Colleges, Universities, Professional Schools)? I'm doing a presentation at EDUCAUSE, the Higher-Ed IT Conference, on the changing uses of Voice communications in that space. I'd love to chat briefly to see how folks are using the phone system at High-Ed institutions and how they see that changing. -- Are campus users using the phone systems differently now than they did a few years ago? -- Does every new staff or faculty member want a phone number? -- Who are the heaviest users of the voice system? -- Have you recently removed any parts of the phone system? (E.g., Dorm room phones, blue-light emergency phones, desk phones for staff in favor of MS Teams, etc.) I'd appreciate any pointers.

What attestation for verified calls?
by ciscoplumber＠gmail.com Sept. 19, 2022

Sept. 19, 2022

Has the industry as a whole more or less settled on a particular attestation level when marking a call as verified in the CNAM? If my phone receives a call and it says verified does that mean the call was at attestation 'A' only, or 'A' and 'B', any level of passing attestation, etc.? Thanks

NANPfund.com?

We have passed the year mark since we've had our OCN, FCC FRN and such registrations for S/S support. I got a bill from NANPfund.com / Welch LLP that has me suspicious. We don't have our own numbering and its saying this is the Annual Fee for the Numbering Administrations Cost. The FCC FRN website shows that we don't have any fees due. I'm not sure if there are ongoing costs from NECA for our OCN. I just want to make sure this isn't a fake invoice that was scraped from public FCC data. ~Jared

Disconnect without explanation
by neimanpinchas＠gmail.com Sept. 5, 2022

Sept. 5, 2022

A customer of mine had a Belgium number at Anveo, all of the sudden they disconnected the number and refuse to give him an explanation. and the ticket has been forcibly closed. Any ideas of what could be done? Below is the ticket Where did my Belgium DID disappear??? 3238082748 the number is not working and is not finding it in my account - The number was disconnected by the carrier for service abuse. which kind of abuse???? im paying for Belgium DID and channels. i dont get this, how do you shut off a number with out notification??????????? The number was disconnected according to Anveo TOS and it cannot be resinstated. We consider that questions raised in this ticket were answered in full and thus this ticket is closed. If you have additional support requests then please submit a new support ticket. Since the number was used for regular commercial usage, I am wondering how and where this could been explained, and have the number instantiated (except the ticket system) Thanks

Service notification lists (outages, etc)
by caalvarez＠gmail.com Aug. 31, 2022

How do you smaller players maintain lists to notify people of issues, planned outages, etc? We can't get them to update 911, let alone who should get these. Right now it's rather manual in our CRM. It would be nice to send something out to the list say yearly, and ask them to update themselves with new employees or whatever. For frame of reference, we're very small and would notify a couple hundred people, with events less than monthly.

We are suddenly seeing a lot of this seemingly nationwide from Bandwidth and thinQ (which is a multi-carrier aggregator). Anyone else?

Numbers listed as spam by Hiya

LOL, no. One does medical billing, the other does customer surveys. In both cases, the call recipients have an established business relationship and "deserve" the calls. A lot of people just don't want calls period, which I get also. There also appears to be some point where the marking is automatic based on volume and short call duration.

Especially after we all jumped through a bunch of hoops & paid other sums of money to be part of the "STIR/SHAKEN ecosystem". If we also have to deal with actively registering numbers with third-party databases as well, what's the friggin' point? -- Nathan -----Original Message----- From: VoiceOps [mailto:voiceops-bounces at voiceops.org] On Behalf Of Alex Balashov via VoiceOps Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2022 3:02 PM To: voiceops at voiceops.org Subject: Re: [VoiceOps] Numbers listed as spam by Hiya > On Aug 25, 2022, at 2:17 PM, Carlos Alvarez via VoiceOps <voiceops at voiceops.org> wrote: > > That feels so much like a mafia extortion plan. Pay us to not screw you over. Seriously. How are we even supposed to know about these registries, if not for this list? What makes them in any sense official? Nothing? Who put them in charge? Are there more registries? Do you have to pay the extortion for both registries to be sure? If not for the fact that it???s an expedient business decision, I think everyone here should refuse to comply in principle. I???m as far from pro-spam as Heaven is from Earth, but this is beyond ridiculous. ???
