Well, sending a toll number would be nice, and was my plan B or C, except that everyone receiving the call would be puzzled as to who's calling them -- bad for business. Actually, I was just about to write: turns out that this is *not* a Skype-in number problem. The "obvious" thing to do, and I was too focused on tech-side to do it, was to try other non-toll numbers in the DID; e.g. 1 800 111 2222. That works, btw, since PAI's are never validated in my experience to date. As such I've determined that indeed, as Mr J states, this problem is specific to my TN. Now I just have to find the right people at Skype to unblock my TN. I wonder how long it takes to get that done. -- Moshe Yudkowsky Disaggregate Corporation 2952 W Fargo Chicago, IL 60645 USA http://www.Disaggregate.com http://www.PebbleAndAvalanche.com
Were these calls that might be considered spammy calls or be reported as such? Depending on what they think the calls are, they may not be willing to.

I'm amazed to report that Skype wrote, in response to my original PAI question, "This is an issue were working to fix. I have asked to get your user ID unblocked, absolute apologies for the disruption." My personal Skype-in TN is receives the PAI and displays it correctly. I'm trying to verify that it's fixed for everyone, not just me. -- Moshe Yudkowsky Disaggregate Corporation 2952 W Fargo Chicago, IL 60645 USA http://www.Disaggregate.com http://www.PebbleAndAvalanche.com
