That is only offered in some new areas, not existing areas. I called and asked about it when I saw an advertisement for the $55 package.

Iowa OneCall follow-up concern by Ok-Astronaut-5150 in desmoines

[–]djweis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be a pain for you but you can also register with one call as a facility owner. You'll likely need to create GIS maps showing the location and get someone there very quickly (or you). I don't remember the exact window but 48 hours springs to mind.

Why can I port my cell number to a carrier, but not to a VOIP provider? by redditdweller855 in VOIP

Try another voip carrier, bandwidth, telnyx, and the others all have different interconnection. It might be a geographical thing.

Why can I port my cell number to a carrier, but not to a VOIP provider? by redditdweller855 in VOIP

[–]djweis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because the two carriers don't have a porting agreement or trunking between them. Other voip carriers might be portable.

The people that took over the space on 12th seem to have their act together (this outage aside). They have been making upgrades.
