removing bad numbers from dialer

1 Look at NumberRep Report https://www.freevoiceusa.com/account/#ajax/numbers/number_rep/

2 Evaluate yellow and Red results to determine numbers to be removed

3 Go to Dialer CID Group and uncheck [active]  to Disable flagged numbers. 

(we'll wait a wee to see if they go green again after 5-30 days before removing)

Determine if you need more numbers 

1 Go to Dialer CID Group (at the end of day because this report refreshes each day) and look for states or area codes with more than *100 calls to  determine if you need more numbers in that given area. * 100 calls is a recommendation. In strategy, less calls per day means less chance of getting flagging which equals less overall maintenance.

2 Go to Freevoiceusa.com - Dashboard - Phone Numbers - Add New Numbers

3 search by area code - reserve  numbers - view reserved numbers. Perform reputation scan.  Double click any red/yellow or excess numbers to remove them.

4 Replace and repeat the process until you have all the good numbers. 

5 Verify Trunk and CNAM are correct - Process order

6 Enable  Number rep on new purchased numbers

7 Go to the Dialer CID Group and Add good numbers.
