Hi - is it possible to use your software to make an outbound call from an iphone but without actually porting the number to Flynumber but rather “just” documentation ownership of the number (billing, etc. as required) ? Asking as I would need to maintain the current subscription as well. If possible, what to do ?
Good question, and while technically possible, this is not recommended as per the latest STIR/SHAKEN rules, essentially making it impossible for us to comply with the regulations if we were to do so.
More info here.
EDIT: Getting more details and will update this topic.
Hi Again @Jeppe_Schoenfeld
We are being told this should work OK with our phone system
Let me know and I can enable this feature from here (once the phone system is on the account and paid for)
Super ! I am totally new to this. So please bear with me. What is the cheapest option for me to have this established with Flynumber ? What do I need to buy from you ? And what documentation must I send you to prove ownership of the mobile telephone number ? Kind regards Jeppe
You will need the phone system - normally 14.95 but can enable here for 9.95
A mobile bill/invoice (recent) should work fine.
Once you sign up, we will set everything up from here to make things easier.
That sounds super. I assume there will be no extra costs involved for setting the “port” up once I provice the latest bill and the the offer of 9,95 will continue after “start up”.
If yes, then I would like to try your system and sign up. What to do from here ?
Brds
Jeppe.
Correct, keep in mind there is a per min rate to call out depending on where you call.
Just sign up and choose the phone system - we will update the price from here. To make things easier, please paste this forum topic URL in a ticket once the account is set up.
Thanks and standing by.
Many thanks. Just to be sure - and sorry for my questions - what should I choose under section 2 (How do you want to use your flynumber) ? I am - as discussed - interested in using my exiting Danish mobile number for outbound calls without porting it to you (but rather documentation ownership). Brgds Jeppe
No worries and you would want to use Phone System ( the last option there )
Thanks and standing by.
Thank you very much. And the another “starter question” (sorry !!) - I am asked to choose a country when signing up. What impact does the choice of country have ? I am signing up - as discussed - because I would like to be able to make outbound calls using my Danish mobile number, but without actually porting it to you (but rather documenting ownership as discussed). So must I choose Denmark ? Or could I also for instance choose France or Cyprus ? What is the impact of the choice of country ? Many thanks. Jeppe
Hi again - just tried to chose Denmark. On the next page, I must then chose a Danish mobile number, which I don’t need obviously as I will be “porting” my existing number to you. And it says 9,95 USD/month and then the phone system 14,95 USD. I assume I will only pay for the system 1 time and the only 9,95 USD/month in total going forward ? Kind regards Jeppe
Good question, and the way our system is set up is that there must be a FlyNumber on file to “attach” the phone system to.
The cheapest is $2.95 a month. Many countries are $2.95, but perhaps any US, Canada, or UK number would work for you. If you need SMS with UK, make sure to choose UK Mobile 44-7.
Thanks and standing by.
OK - just so I understand. What will my total cost be per month ?
So in this case, it would be $12.90 a month
$9.95 for the phone system + $2.95 for the FlyNumber + the per-minute rate depending on where you call.
Thanks again and standing by.
