In this article, you will learn how to help resolve an issue you may encounter when using Workiz Phone. If you are experiencing an almost immediate drop when making outbound calls, please read this article to help resolve your issue.
This issue may be the result of recent changes adopted by major US carriers (e.g., T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon) designed to protect consumers from receiving spam calls. These carriers may have designated your phone number as an illegitimate business number due to a history of spam-like activity (i.e., a high volume of unanswered calls and/or short call durations). It's possible that this designation was assigned before you acquired the phone number.
You can help resolve this issue by registering your phone number(s) with the major carriers using this link:
After submitting your registration request, you will receive a message confirming receipt of your request directly from three different call analytics providers:
- First Orion (T-Mobile)
- Hiya (AT&T)
- Transaction Network Services (Verizon)
From that point forward, you may be required to communicate individually with each of these analytics providers to complete your registration. Workiz will not be able to provide insight into the progress of your registration request.
