Hello,
Can you please look at my usage pattern below and suggest me if my option 1. will work? Thanks for your time and sharing your knowledge.
I have 3 obi devices and all of them have individual GV accounts now. Line1 is in US and Line2, Line3 are outside US. Since I have a very simple requirement, I am hoping that I do not need to buy 3 lines of service from one of the ASP to move away from the GV. Below is my usage pattern.
Line1 requires outgoing to US, incoming from US
Line2 makes and receives calls from Line1 phone number only.
Line3 makes and receives calls from Line1 phone number only.
Now here are the options I know.
Option 1. Line1 - setup service with one of Approved Service Provider. Line2 and Line3, do not need any additional service. They can just use the free OBI - OBI calling feature.
Option 2. Find a Service Provider ( among the Approved) who has 2 types of plans.
a) Incoming and outgoing minutes plan for Line1
b) Free/cheap incoming / outgoing plan for Line2, Line3. Or a Service Provider who has free calling with in the same network can also work.
Does my Option 1. work in practice?
Do you know/have used any SP that officially supports Option 2. ?
Thanks
