    Default An AWESOME feature request....

    A PRE-MESSAGE before the phone rings.
    One of the biggest problems I have is the number of wrong numbers. If there was a way to announce a message then ring my phone, I bet that would cut down the number of wrong numbers. Even one step further, press 1 to leave a message.

    Or, announce, then "Press 1 to connect", thus reducing auto dialers.
    I like your thinking!

    Google Voice has a feature like this. You can choose to have unknown numbers announce themselves before they are connected to you. That would be a nice feature!

    Or even better, 1 step further. A random single digit (other than 0) to connect.
    I love it. Now it's time to get the VOIPo masters to get on it.

    Voicepulse's "Telemarketer Block" feature is also very effective. The caller will hear a short tone (just like the one for a disconnected phone number) before your phone starts ringing and that triggers removal of your number(robodialer) from the telemarketer list.

    If cell companies can play songs to the caller, instead of ringing, does that mean they connected the call? If you get a lot of LD inbound, are you guaranteeing the caller has termination fees? I guess they must. That is revenue for the cell company each time.

    VOIPo could be accused of trying to get additional revenue by the extra call handling. Voicemail likely has the same termination costs to the caller's service.

    I expect this involves a different method of internal call routing, and is not just a hand-off to a switch. (Wish I were more technically savvy about this.)

    Is there a way to request a change in your actual username? In any case, just wondered.

    If you have an express account (where you picked your username from the start), then you certainly can -- simply submit a quick ticket to our support team at support@voipo.com. Conversely, all Residential Services have pre-set usernames that can not change.

    I would like to see a feature that you can upload a picture of your car and in real time, add/subtract parts to see how they look on your car. Wheels, body kits, everything.

    And, then materialize in your garage for free?
