FREE AREA NUMBER NOT FREE??

Post by Kamshaft »

Was just wondering if anyone else had this issue...

I'm trying to call 819-938-3466 from Ottawa, ON and FPL says "you don't have sufficient funds..." ???

This is a Gatineau, QC number and any other Gatineau number seems to work fine, so why would I need world credits for this particular one?

Any ideas?

If the number is indeed in Fongo's free calling area, it could be a new exchange that Fongo currently does not know about yet. See what happens when you submit a ticket on the issue.

It's actually on an Ottawa-Hull exchange, so it should be free.

Code: Select all

819,938,Allstream Inc.,8304,In Service,Ottawa-Hull,
As suggested, put in a support ticket or try posting in this thread which gets checked by Fongo staff I believe http://forum.fongo.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=5418.
