SIP provider that will route to free conference services

We have a few customers who need to reach free conference call services and none of our current carriers will route the calls. Are there any providers out there that will take these calls via SIP? We are happy to pay a fair price per minute if somebody will take it. -Evan

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. :-) https://www.fcc.gov/document/fcc-releases-order-combating-rural-call-complet... -- Alex -- Alex Balashov | Principal | Evariste Systems LLC 303 Perimeter Center North, Suite 300 Atlanta, GA 30346 United States Tel: +1-800-250-5920 (toll-free) / +1-678-954-0671 (direct) Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/, http://www.csrpswitch.com/

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.

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. -Evan From: VoiceOps [mailto:voiceops-bounces at voiceops.org] On Behalf Of Carlos Alvarez Sent: Wednesday, December 2, 2015 12:56 PM To: voiceops at voiceops.org Subject: Re: [VoiceOps] SIP provider that will route to free conference services And then, please do record that phone call!

"it just rings and rings and never answers" Can you tell if the ringback is pre-session media or post-answer? That seems like FAS, or the conference bridge might be doing something pre-session, like prompting for a bridge ID, and someone is masking that pre-session media with a ringback.

I doubt that the representatives of rural Iowa folk conference calling traditions have an incentive to pipe out any portion of their audio via early media, since they don't get paid CABS for early media. -- Alex -- Alex Balashov | Principal | Evariste Systems LLC 303 Perimeter Center North, Suite 300 Atlanta, GA 30346 United States Tel: +1-800-250-5920 (toll-free) / +1-678-954-0671 (direct) Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/, http://www.csrpswitch.com/

Get in touch with Widevoice. A couple years ago we were having trouble getting quality calls to certain conference destinations. They handle most of the traffic to these destinations and a handful of NPANXXs. They gave us a specific rate deck for many of these conference codes.

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. :-)

Then they should charge a rate relative to the costs of terminating it and route it without discrimination. Hence the point of the FCC's order.
