GV for Landline security verification?
Peterluger:
I am planning to port my landline to Google voice.
Now just want to know, in the future can i use that GV line to verify those security check?
You know sometime to activate my credit card thing?
Like when i receive my credit card, it ask u to call from home to activate? Can i still do that if i port my landline to GV and link to my obi. If i call fr my obi, will i able to activate those security check?
Emagin:
Your question is not 100% clear to me but I *think* you are asking:
Will banks and other high security entities 'trust' my Gvoice number.
I can answer yes. I have use Gvoice both from Gmail/Gtalk PC with microphone (3 years) and with ObiTalk 202 / Gvoice as my primary phone and all calls to big banks, amex and such work, including card verification (although I have only done this twice sofar).
Hope that helps.

Your bank has no idea where your phone number is, so if you sign up for a credit card with a cell phone and are in Arizona that day they'll verify to you in Arizona. Likewise your GV number works fine.

I verified two on Google Voice in the last 3 months. I can say that I have had problems with automated systems when I made the call from Gmail on the computer. Touch tone issues. Not a problem when using the Obi however.
psuPete:
When I have used GV from my laptop with builtin speaker and using the keyboard, I believe I've had problems. I think if I place the speaker in MOOT while pressing the keyboard, things are better.
Alternatively, perhaps using a wired headset.
On my Android devices, I have a system setting for DTMF selected as LONG.
