Fongo registration

Post by grovepark »

I registered a new account on a LG optimus net up to the point choose a number but it just stuck in an endless loop "loading numbers...." no number to select from. I repeated the process a couple times, same problem. Please help.

You can try and set up the account online via their website https://register.fongo.com/desktop/registerStep1

You will then be able to use that account on your phone. What area are you trying to get a number for? the only other time I have seen something like this was when they ran out of number for a couple of areas.

I tried your link on PC , same thing, it's stuck at "load numbers..." like forever.

I just checked with my lookup script, and yes, they are out of Toronto numbers! :?

Very strange, but I am sure someone is on it.

**EDIT
I just looked on the cnac site and all the Fibernetics entries for the Toronto area are showing as in service, so either some have just come online and needs to be entered into the pool of numbers, or they have just run out and not ordered any more.

One thing I will say is that every day inactive accounts will be shut down and their numbers will be added back into the pool so it is worth checking from time to time. Numbers will also come back when people port in their numbers into their fpl/fongo accounts.
