Hey Brandon - did you ever get a chance to take a look at this? I tested again yesterday, and still had the same result - off network worked great, calling another VOIPo number displayed the original ID. Thanks.

Did this feature go away? I couldn't find it (to un-do it) :)

Beta tab, Caller-ID command? Or, do you mean a listing for someone calling you (in your contacts)?

That's what I mean - that link doesn't exist under Beta for me at the moment.

Can you access it directly (after logging in, of course)?

Re: Custom Caller ID (from another phone)

Looks like the verify option is missing now. Is the feature gone for good?

It should still be there. No changes with that feature recently. What are you seeing where it was?

At least for me, I still can't see it directly when using Firefox. When I use IE or Chrome, I see "Caller-", then "ID" is cut off at the right edge of the blue bar. Accessing the feature directly through the link works fine.

The only place I can enter a mobile phone number is Beta >> SMS Controls, btu there is no verify there. I don't see a mobile phone tab anywhere, and I've clicked on every tab and setting in VPanel.

Re: Custom Caller ID (from another phone)

I have a Uverse Voice number that I want as my Caller-ID when dialing out until I port my Uverse Voice number over to Voipo. I add my Uverse Voice number to the Mobile section, click Verify and the phone never rings. Does it only work with a Google Voice number or a true mobile number? Uverse Voice is like a landline but I am testing Voipo before I switch over completely. Can a Tech person add it manually for me to choose as my outgoing CID?

Re: Custom Caller ID (from another phone)

What would be the correct way to use my landline phone number as my outgoing caller id until I decide I want to keep Voipo and port my landline number into it? It seems to me you can only use mobile number.

You can use any type of phone number as long as you're able to verify it. I use my Google Voice number as my outgoing caller ID. In VPanel, go to Beta -> Mobile. Type your landline number in the Mobile Number field and click the Add Mobile Number button. In the bottom section click the Click Here to Verify link and the system will call you and ask you to type in the verification code displayed in VPanel. After the number has been verified, it will appear in the Outbound Caller-ID drop-down list in Beta -> Misc. Just select it and click the Set Caller-ID button.

Re: Custom Caller ID (from another phone)

Just enter your land line where you would otherwise enter your mobile phone number (either Beta/Mobile or Beta/SMS Control, I can't remember which).

I second this request !!!!

For advanced/BYOD users this could be done fairly easily, and is similar to using a PAYG providers for outbound calling.

Of course, I'd expect with both Voipo-provisioned devices or BYOD, there's a considerable development and configuration management effort required by Voipo to make this happen.
