Obi 202, GV and Caller Id on destination phone calls
Lavarock7:
You would think that faster announcing who you are and the callee clicking to allow you through, that the system would register that calling number as approved for the future.
If they are looking at caller name and not number, or your number is not being passed properly, then I guess the system would ask every time.
It does sound like it is on his end.
If you used to call him via your home phone number and now have aObi with GoogleVoice that is placingt he call, then the callerID he is getting now is the GoogleVoice number and not your home number. He may need to enter your Googlevoice number in his system somehow.

My friend tells me that on caller id it shows him 877-754-8280 and "Call Intercept" as the name. When one of his sons calls that gets this same problem, he is is coming in from a 703 area code. Another son calls in, also from the 703 area code, and does not get the call intercept.
I'll make sure that he has my GV number in his phone system...but I seem to recollect that he told me that he had.
BTW, my number is NOT approved for the future and does ask me EVERY time.

Lavarock7:
Someone (in a google search) said the number belongs to Frontier.
kevmeist:
Yep, I saw that. He does have Frontier as his phone company. It's them that "intercepts" the call when I make it. The question is still why they don't recognize it as a "known number". Their message talks about the person that you are calling has call intercept which is used when the caller id is not known or something like that.
kevmeist:
The person that I call has both my cell phone and the GV number programmed in his phone system. The issue is, I suppose, is what is Frontier receiving to "turn on" the call intercept feature. I have to believe that it is the GV number. Why they turn on call intercept is beyond me.
