    Default How to check for available numbers?

    I am just looking for porting informatio.

    503-261

    I am told it is "portland" haha. The city given can sometimes be vague, and many different smaller suburbs in the list. Is there any available list that shows us what area code plus 3 can be ported over by resellers?

    I was just asking the same thing.
    If nothing else, they could take 15 minutes and re-create their order page with inclusion pages that we could put into frames on our websites. This would let the customers see the available numbers, but they wouldn't be able to reserve. So you could basically have them look through the list while you had them on the phone... and know that you were getting a number they wanted.

    Shouldn't be too hard for VOIPo to offer number browsing on http://NUMBERS.voipwelcome.com, so we could run it in a frame.

    It would go a long way towards making Resellers look bigger and more "legit". But it would also let customers "pre-qualify" their service area before signing up.

    Just throwing in my support for this.

    Add a utility that uses a script to hold a DID-selection in the Reseller's reserve list. Then it can be manually be reassigned to the User's account.

    That could be Baby-Step-#1 of a VOIPo API

    VOIPo could build bunch of small scripts for Resellers to get things going.
    They don't need to be full HTML, just the back office stuff.

    I understand were still in "Beta", but as a reseller I feel like I'm dead in the water for online sales to make anything streamlined to look up #'s just like the VOIPo site. And yes I know... Other venders assign a # to the customer. For me I like the ability to pick out a # that is something that I like and easy to remember.

    I have signed up a couple of accounts but it has been very manual and this really needs to be very high on the list of things to get completed.

    On another note, service has been great, support has been super.
