[Asterisk-Users] iax.cc / sixtel are they legitimate?
Does anyone have any experience with iax.cc/sixtel? Are they a legitimate company? From their website it looks like you can get a private incoming 800 number for 30 cents/month plus 2 cents/minute. Somehow that pricing seems a little cheap for a DID number. I assume there has to be some minimum usage or something. Any info as far as actual costs and/or voice quality would be appreciated. Thanks, Jon.
I have a couple of toll-free numbers from them. They are legit. I have had a few minor issues, but nothing I can't live with. --- Kelly D Griffin Network Engineer Tantella Wireless http://tantella.com 479.273.9992 Voice 479.464.8998 Fax -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Jon Gabrielson Sent: Thursday, January 27, 2005 8:22 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [Asterisk-Users] iax.cc / sixtel are they legitimate?

Been using them successfully for a couple of months now. No minimum volume... And my volume is LOW. Besides, 800#s are free elsewhere, but these guys have better customer service than "elsewhere".> -----Original Message----- > From: Jon Gabrielson [mailto:jon@directfreight.com] > Sent: Thursday, January 27, 2005 8:22 AM > To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: [Asterisk-Users] iax.cc / sixtel are they legitimate? > > > Does anyone have any experience with iax.cc/sixtel? > Are they a legitimate company?

[Asterisk-Users] iax.cc / sixtel are they legitimate?
I have one DID and make outgoing calls through Sixtel. Their support has been good with the minor issues I've seen. The're very * aware. I also use Voipjet for outbound and Clearpath for an 800 number. All provide IAX termination. All three companies have been great compared to my prior experience with VoicePulse Connect.

Been using them for just over a month for all outbound calls. Their customer service is prompt and courteous. I use Voicepulse for inbound and turn around for the average ticket I open is about three days whereas for Sixtel it's often been same day. As for the 800 numbers...I don't have one. But if they're charging $0.30 now for an auto-assigned number then their rates have gone up because I'm pretty sure those used to be free. How do they make their money on those? Well, I would think that since most 800 numbers are now recycled it's fairly likely that you will get many wrong-number calls and if you have an IVR running those calls will start to add up at $0.02/min!! -mark On Jan 27, 2005, at 9:21 AM, Jon Gabrielson wrote:> Does anyone have any experience with iax.cc/sixtel? > Are they a legitimate company?
