| 830018 | 2009-11-14 05:14:00 | Hi, I've setup a fax test call back service and need some volunteers to test what I've setup. The number is 02825504023 but I'm not sure what the termination rate will be for everybody's number it shouldn't be that much though! If you could report back whether the test was successful or not and the turnaround time that would be awesome. Thanks in advance! :banana |

| 830019 | 2009-11-14 05:56:00 | You won't get many takers as they will be paying a cell fone call rate to this number.. Who on earth has 8 digit 028 numbers?? I though this was against the NAD.. | paulw (1826) | ||
| 830020 | 2009-11-14 10:45:00 | Dear Mr. Party Pooper, I know you meant well but your comments have probably killed a project I have worked on for the last few weeks for the IT community. Nobody seems to be running a call back service to test a fax machine anymore - but there are still so many fax machines and fax modems - people are still buying them and IMHO this is a niche that should be filled. I set up a small server, wrote a combination of VB and batch file scripts and spent $100 on an external modem to enable the outgoing reply fax. I realize the number was not ideal but it was suggested by a member on this very forum and it meant that I could set up the service at minimal cost to myself and it allowed me to capture the 'A' party phone number. Test Fax transmissions are usually short (lasting less than a minute) the charge to the initiator would have been minimal. If you are willing to sponsor or suggest a way that I can provide this service at no cost to myself with a more acceptable number and better yet no cost to the caller and be available throughout NZ I am very receptive to your suggestions! :thanks "Some men see things as they are and say why.

| 830021 | 2009-11-17 01:40:00 | Tried your fax back service. It didn't work. Could hear your modem but my fax didn't reply to it. I think the fax might not have liked the sound of your modem, it didn't seem to sound right to me. Jeff. |

| 830024 | 2009-11-17 01:56:00 | Gidday Jeff, how's the interviews going? | andreas.hagen (15380) | ||
| 830025 | 2009-11-17 03:49:00 | Have send another fax. It has gone through but I have got no reply. Jeff. |

| 830026 | 2009-11-17 04:20:00 | Is this your number: 039635XXX? It came through ok, but I have a toll bar hence why it didn't dial out successfully. |

| 830027 | 2009-11-17 07:20:00 | The number is not correct. How are you getting the number? Off Caller ID or off the Fax Header? Seeing you have a toll bar, unless I am in your toll free area it is not going to work. Jeff. |
