So Obi and GV won't play together in 6 months
Milton:
Ok, so I became a hero to wife today, her mom called from Northern Ireland and GV forwarded the call to the Obi100 using the GV connection configured in SP1 AND to her cell phone. The wife was out, but answered her cell phone so no missed call from mom.
I went to CallCentric, signed up for a free DID, configured it as SP2 and it worked. I even configured it into GV and the call forwarding worked! You get a different ring pattern depending on if the call is coming in on SP1 or SP2.
I guess I can sit on it for a while and see if spam calls on the DID are an issue.
gderf:
I haven't gotten any SPAM calls yet on my CallCentric free DID. I have one call treatment on it so far, "Send Anonymous Caller to Error message: Number disconnected."
Milton:
I have received one anonymous call on the DID, it was from GV verifying that it's my number. So remove the blocks for anonymous calling when you are going to get GV verified.
gderf:
I had the number verified and working before I added call treatments to it.
But just for grins I deleted my DID from GV and added it back with the anonymous call blocking still in place. Google called and asked me to verify the number. That call wasn't blocked and it wasn't anonymous either - it came from (202) 455-8888. An anonymous call would have come in with no phone number at all for identification.
Milton:
So I just checked by history on callcentric, the call from GV was indeed anonymous, no phone number. I guess it's variable.
