[Asterisk-Users] VoiceConduits - Notice
Hello, This is David Deutsch, and I'm the owner of VoiceConduits. There seems to be some confusion related to our company, regarding the past few posts. VoiceConduits is currently NOT open for public business, we have never to date advertised or attempted to attract business. It appears that a few people heard about our company via a mention in a SineApps article and found our beta system that is under development. We apologize that a few people managed to sign up via this interface, and we will happily refund anyone who did so immediately, additionally we will supply them with free credit to be used once we are in fact live. It was certainly never our intention to "defraud" individuals of the asterisk or voip community, our understanding is that only 5 people have managed to signup thru this automated system, and we will be contacting each of them individually to insure they are refunded and happy with the resolution. Thank you, David Deutsch, President Tris Telecommunications, LLC (800) 547-4057 x1001 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It seems that once you have VoiceConduits up and running it will be an excellent service. I really do look forward to doing business with VoiceConduits. For the record: 1) The Sri Lanka number was a cell phone in India, where David was helping with the tsunami. 2) The Wyoming \ Nevada inc. thing, was done to minimize personal liability, as in Delaware. Why I don't necessarily agree with it, I can certainly understand why you would want to do it... In the world of spam and shoddy internet transactions, it is not that hard to at least make your company LOOK legitimate. This includes valid contact numbers, good communication, accurate WHOIS records, etc. I can appreciate that you were not ready for business, but it is not that hard to block the sign-up portion of your site until you are ready. Hopefully this whole thread can be a lesson to someone looking to setup a business and avoid this kind of thing. Brian, David, anyone else, my sincerest apologies. -- Kristian Kielhofner

Gotta ask the obvious here --> -----Original Message----- > 1) The Sri Lanka number was a cell phone in India, where David was > helping with the tsunami.I guess this could receive some additional clarification. If David helped "with the tsunami" that occurred just a few days ago, how did he obtain the foresight to secure such a cell# back in August, when he registered and last updated the domain? "Shady Ln" is a very unfortunate address for any business :)
