Carlos, Do you allow customers to customize messaging ... and have you found the early media works fairly consistently? (i.e. someone in between doesn't insert their own ringtone). Also from trunk utilization perspective, that channel is still occupied, right? <http://www.startelecom.ca> *Ivan Kovacevic* *Co-Founder and VP Client Services* *STAR TELECOM* On Fri, Jan 10, 2020 at 12:33 PM Carlos Alvarez <caalvarez at gmail.com> wrote:
We do this by default for our customers with SIP trunking. Just play it as early media and then send a busy. We have a monthly minimum spend of $200 per customer so it's not a big deal to do something for each one, we probably wouldn't do it for $50 customers.

Good morning,
We've got a request from one of our SIP trunk customers, asking us to provide an automated recorded message should their inbound call volume unexpectedly exceed their trunk capacity (rather than a busy signal). They don't want to have the calls rerouted, or answered, per se, or have people leave a message - just an announcement that they have a situation that has resulted in an excessive call volume, and asking people to call back.
This is the first time we've gotten such a request, and it doesn't look like a common SP service offering. Normally, customers just provide an alternate overflow destination for us to send the calls to. Are there any other service providers who have offered this kind of failover/overflow service for exceeding trunk capacity, and, if so, how did you price the service? Please feel free to contact me directly, if you have any suggestions.
