[Asterisk-Users] Re: No ringback over IAX - LiveVoip

[Ryan Laginski]

Yes, they do blame everyone else. There is another thread where I
posted that I couldn't get my toll free number working. I waited days
for support to get back to me, and I ended up emailing this list and
then livevoip again. A LiveVoip representive blasted me on this list,
stating that I was handled by their staff, and they don't moderate
this list. Apparently, he didn't read my post, were I explicitly said
I emailed them first, received no response, then emailed this list.

Besides the ringback problem and the initial problems configuring the
number, I am quite happy with the quality and reliability of the
service. I have always found other providers have a slight lag, which
I don't find with Livevoip.

Anyways, I haven't found anyone that offers a toll free number that
works in Canada for 1.29 cents a minute. If there is others, please
let me know.

Thanks,
-Ryan
