Coming in July...

Yes, I suspect most of my issues were short codes related - it's been a couple of months since I got the telna account so my memory is a little fuzzy. All I know is when I got it I thought I'd use it for all kinds of things and it was a disaster. I believe when I tried it with my bank and investment company one said they'd send me an SMS, which I never did receive. The other wanted to use a short code which telna could not handle. With telna, I didn't have an issue sending to individual cell phones or receiving from them. As always, I'll be happy to beta test this.

PM or e-mail me your number and I can send you a test message through it if you want.

Also I got your e-mail about BETA testing. We'll be opening it up for public testing in the next 1-2 weeks.

Great to hear about the beta testing! I'll be sure to sign up. The reason I've yet to send you my number is I've no doubt that cell to cell SMS will work with your system (as shown by the graphic in your first post). It's all those other non-cell-to-cell SMS applications that I was wondering about.

Will the SMS / New panel be available to resellers to or just clients of VOIPO only.

Initially it's just our core panel, but we plan to roll out the new panel and SMS feature to resellers eventually as well.

Hi There,

Its been 20 days since the new portal launch. I am eagerly waiting for ability to make international calls from my mobile. I travel a lot and I need this ability to talk to my family abroad. I dont want to carry VOIPO adapter with me since my wife also need to make international calls when I am out.

Please expedite !!!

As requested earlier, can you please display month to date minute usage of international calls made in the new vPanel.

With Regards

We haven't announced this yet, but the ability to call international destinations using BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) has already been added. You would simply install a SIP softphone on your mobile device.

To enable international calling, login to the BETA control panel at https://beta.voipo.com and go to BETA - International Calling Security. Then set the BYOD toggle to "Enabled" and add the destinations you wish to call with BYOD to your "Whitelist" by following the instructions. You will then be able to call those whitelisted destinations via BYOD. You may have up to 5 countries on your BYOD whitelist at any given time. High-risk and high-fraud destinations remain blocked and cannot be whitelisted.

In the near future, we're also adding an "access number" that works like a calling card to call from registered external numbers as well. In the meantime, you should be able to access this using BYOD.

Hello Tim,

Like so many other users, simply can't wait to see the portable international calling feature work using an access number. Could you please be a little more specific when you say

"In the near future, we're also adding an "access number" that works like a calling card to call from registered external numbers as well"?

Are we talking by the end of August? I am afraid I don't have all the tech details to be able to install a SIP phone on my mobile (blackberry) so am eagerly waiting for int'l calling via access number.

Thanks!

Oh, c'mon - Latvia costs couple pennies a minute with most providers... Is it really high-risk or high-fraud destination? Pardon my scepticism...

But if there is this manual addition to the whitelisted countries - I would love to be able to add just "included" destination. That is, I would love to add Israel landlines, but not include Israel cell phones (which costs 15 times cheaper with other providers). The way it is now - seems to be worse of both worlds...
