FollowMe number

Post by jgionet76 »

hi all,

I'm new to FPL and was currently testing out the FollowMe number feature.
When I try to add my cell phone as a followme number I get this error message:

The number can not be used as FollwMe number

Any reason why I would be getting this? I've tried a different phone number and I'm getting the same thing.

Thanks

What's the NXX of your number? The three digits after the 705
