I am wondering if it would not do more both to prevent fraud and allow 'fair use' to the betamax customers if the IP address passed was one that identifies the individual voxalot user instead of the DID provider. It could be the browser IP at the time of sign up.

Out of curiosity would this be technically feasible?

This release was not setting an IP address for any calls going through the call forwarding system, which is why calls forwarded via Betamax were failing.

This is odd as I didn't have a problem on calls I tried, and would have had an IP address that if visible they may see quite a bit.

Browser address? You mean at the time of sign-up for the Voxalot account or what other time?

Not everyone has a fixed IP address, and some use proxies, and thus sometimes my address will be different for secure and non-secure pages.

So this proposal would tell Betamax an IP address that doesn't identify me to them at all, and might have even been blocked by them for fraud a few months after I signed up.

CallForwarding by Betamax stops working (partly)
 
I have in pbxes incoming trunk(Polish number for my Polish roommate).
In Voxalot callforward to office phone(vsp=voipcheap) during worktime.
If I call the Polish number, the call forward(using voipcheap) does not work!
If I use an other vsp het works ok. If I call my dutch number(registered in Voxalot) call forward(using voipcheap) ok too. If I disable call forward every call go to voicemail, so ok too.

So only pbxes > voxalot > officephone (using Betamax) does not work!

Something changed in PBXes, Voxalot or Betamax?

There is a number of issues that could come into play here....

To summarize, what doesn't work is:

Polish #>>PBXes>>VoXalot>>VoipCheap>>Office Number

however this works, correct?....

Polish #>>PBXes>>VoXalot>>Other Non-Betamax>>Office Number

I think that it may have less to do with PBXes and more to do with the polish number, in this case VoXalot will pass on to Betamax the IP from PBXes, and PBXes is likely to pass on the IP form the polish number...hence the Polsih IP is likely being sent to Betamax....

The only way to test of course would be to register another number in PBXes and have it follow the same forwarding and see if the issue re-occurrs...

There has been no major changes in VoXalot lately, and PBXes despite some Plan changes, has also remained pretty stable....

As usual, it is likely BetaMax and the way they are enforcing/blacklisting IPs is the unpredictable part...

This week I am also having Betamax problems. I can call free numbers OK but if I call a UK mobile it says I have insufficient funds. I have plenty of credit and free days though. It is not a Voxalot issue as it's the same from their website direct.

At the moment my problem is gone, everything works as expected.

@tomblandford: nice chalet website !

My problem is also now gone. I think it was a Betamax glitch.

PS - proudly sporting Voxalot branding on that website :)
