[Asterisk-Users] Broadvoice limits???

[Tim Connolly]

I would know if they real-time charged for that... Although I normally only
have 10-12 calls going, I watch pretty close and dispute any
supposed-to-be-free-but-not calls!

pay particular attention to section 1.3.1 with broadvoice.  I however
accidentally looped my dialplan - had stanaphone (free NY number) used
the whole number including the '1' as its extension.  Set up the
broadvoice dialplan (which what is on broadvoices page seems
imncomplete, never checked to see what else is unlimited but missing but
found one country not there) which defaults to 1NXXXXXXXXX to go through
broadvoice.  Called my stanaphone number to test, when the call came it
it dialed my stanaphone number. 

Stanaphone didnt like this (and shut my free account off, I got a new
onewith a better number so oh well : but broadovice did not care.  I had
20-30 ports in use at the same time.

One thing broadvoice said in a news article a while back was that they
charge 3.9 cents/min for people who make calls at the same time,
excluding 3-way.  When I did the 30 call loop they didnt charge me
extra, I *think* this only applies if you have multiple IPs register and
place calls at the same time (they do allow multiple IPs to register
according to that same article and all will ring when a call comes in or
something).

I dont have a cite for that article I found it on google, I think it was
a voxilla article though, but it was a while back, and since it was not
an article from today they may have changed their policies onthe 3.9
cents/min.
