Mr. Lyman,
It is just seems quite funny that this user experienced the exact
same thing that I did when I tried to setup a NuFone account. I would
like to see THAT be a user issue, this is a problem with NuFone and
their provisioning and customer support process. I have accounts at four
other IAX providers and have no problem with any of them other than the
one account I wanted at NuFone. Also it seems that I am not the only
user that has had problems. I am not on a rampage against NuFone, people
just need to know what they are getting their selves into. There may be
some happy customers and their may be some unhappy customers.
