Tutorial: Setup with Google Voice and Callcentric for Caller Id Name and e911
SteveInWA:
Please don't cross-post the same question in multiple places.
kealolo:
I've just tried this, seems like the monthly cost will be at least $2.50 now since apparently they no longer give out a free number. Wish I'd known that before paying to set up the account, which is why I'm posting it here...

SteveInWA:
You don't need the inbound number, as long as you can skip CNAM. Just pay for the E911. And, seriously, is $1.50 per month too much to afford?

Hi. I just discovered that on my own, after hours of poking around and a service ticket with callcentric, and was coming back here to correct my post.
The reason I THOUGHT it was necessary to have a number are the steps 7 and 8 in your otherwise-excellent tutorial, which specifically talk about needing to enter and test it. Might want to edit that so other newbies - people who have no idea what a CNAM is - don't make the same conceptual error.
My E911 is now working, and - as you say - a good deal at $1.50/mo
thanks

I have been searching for this exact situation on the web. I am planning to pull the trigger on getting obihai and callcentric but since they don't have the free number anymore all i saw was the plans they have which i thought i would have to fork out $3 a month.
I have no idea what CNAM is but i am going to look into it now. I just want to make it clear that once i purchase and setup my obihai with google voice, there will be an option for me to select $1.50 a month just for e911? I am registered on callcentric right now and I cant seem to find this pricing anywhere lol.
I am wrong, could you assist me on what exactly to do to get that pricing just for e911?
Thank you
