Help Needed With OBi & Callcentric Use of SIPBroker **275
LTN1:
I know this is off-topic to OBi issues but does anyone know if the use of SIPBroker's **275 for toll-free terminations at 800 numbers has been discontinued?
I recently found that my Callcentric's use of for example, **275*1800[any valid number] gets a response that the "SIP code you have dialed is not correct."
Taoman:
Hasn't been working for awhile now. I switched to tollfree.alcazarnetworks.com.
This was Callcentric's response to my query:

The SIP Broker functionality is provided by SIP Broker. Their Toll Free calling appears to no longer be operational. Please contact SIP Broker for more information regarding this issue.
LTN1:
Thanks for your response, Taoman. Nice to confirm that it is not just a glitch.
Besides GV, Localphone offers toll-free terminations--and I have both. I was just wondering if there was an alternative code like SIPBroker (**275) to use when dialing via Callcentric. I'm uncertain if the alcazarnetworks.com's toll-free termination requires signup. Does it have a code similar to SIPBroker where I can use Callcentric to dial out for toll-free numbers?

No code or signup required. Just replace **275* with tollfree.alcazarnetworks.com.
I assume you're using it to query Nomorobo before connecting to your extension?
1Nomorobo#@tollfree.alcazarnetworks.com
Works well. I use call hunting with just a 5 second ring time.

I appreciate the specific instructions. Unfortunately, I'm not using it for Nomorobo. It is actually for an older PBX system that requires numbers or a SIP code like **275 to dial out. The UI doesn't allow for alpha-letters as a dial-out string. It is not critical as I have other providers for outbound toll-free terminations--just wanted to have something numerical to replace the SIPBroker code.
