[asterisk-biz] Vonage 877

Tue May 22 09:43:31 MST 2007

Vonage doesn't own the number.  Technically no resporg owns their numbers.
SMS/800 owns all of the numbers.  Vonage just manages their numbers and
chooses to release them or not.  If not you can fight with them to have them
released but depends on how much you want to fight for the number.  

When we (Molten Telecom) give a number to a customer they are not "leasing"
it.  They are purchasing the number.  They own it we manage it.  If they
choose to move it then its on them.  We don't fight to keep our numbers.  We
want to make the customer happy.  If they are not happy with us, then we
would rather have them happy with someone else.

How does it go against porting laws?  The numbers are Vonage's.. they are
letting you use them for an amount of money each month.

Brian,
Vonage may not be the RESPORG, but the numbers are in their name.    So
unless they release the number, you can't port it to you.

Unless Vonage is a resporg they don't own ANY numbers.  Bring your toll free

to us.  We can port it.
