That's done on some Google products, but not all. Many actually want to verify that you own a real business number. They also won't accept a prepaid cell for these services.
They may refuse to dial a number if the rate they'd have to pay is too high. I've seen that with gvoice vs rural non-Bell ILECs.
This is a major metro in LATA 666, one of the cheapest rate centers. I've had a few discussions off-list with people from the list. I especially want to acknowledge the two people from 360 and Zayo who helped a lot. We all tend to think that the next step I should try is setting CNAM and directory listing for a number and have the customer try again once that's in place. -- Carlos Alvarez TelEvolve 602-889-3003
