April 21, 2010 Incumbent telcos open up for iNum

We’re happy to annonce that something many thought would never happen, did happen :)

Incumbent telcos start opening their network to iNum, making it possible to natively dial iNum numbers from their fixed networks.

The first three to make the move are Belgacom, BT and Verizon.

Others are currently in the works. How fast this will go depends on how much users ask for this capability to their local telco.

We are asking for everyone’s help.  Wherever you are in the world, please try and make test calls to iNum numbers and contact your local telco if it does not work. The more users ask their local telco to support this, the faster it will happen. The following test number can be used: +883 510 000 000 091 (it terminates on an echo test)

Thanks for the support and for all your help !

August 5, 2009 15 million numbers !

This week we assigned the 15 millionth iNum number !

We have been quiet on this blog for the last couple months, but nonetheless actively working on supporting the growing iNum user base and preparing for the launch of some exciting features (more to come on that later).

The iNum reachability is also increasing month after month and a first incumbent operator has opened up its network to iNum — an important first step towards global reach.
