asterisk users - Mar 2005 - Re: [Asterisk-biz] Livevoip U.S. 800 LNP Starts March 9th 2005

Mike,

No they have not. Calls are failing again today. They have offered to
refund my money but that does not solve the problem. My asterisk server
is only 4 to 12 ms away from their "network". I have had VERY good
luck
with nufone.(40 to 45ms away) Only have 1 or 2% fail rate. Going to be
calling txlink.net on Monday. 

Seems that LiveVoIP does not care about asterisk users. They like to
pass the blame.

I also have txlink.net.  They have been very solid and very good to work
with.  I had a toll free ported that took a long time to do.  It wasn't
their issue, it was the original company that was being difficult.  I had 3
more ported, took 2 days, again great to work with.

I agree with Jay, it's not a bad idea to have a couple providers.  No one
provider (that I have found) does it all or has it all, so shop and buy what
works best and have more than one provider right now.  As competition grows,
I am sure that support will get better, I hope.
