They don’t like my phone number. They call it a ‘verification’ issue. I had to call them up and explain, yes, this is my phone number; it has been for over ten years, and it’s the only one I use for business; and yes, it’s the number attached to my bank account.

(I haven’t talked to Internet provider because if that were a problem, it wouldn’t be happening with only two companies and not with any of the others. I can only assume they don’t like my phone number because they can’t automatically verify it, as they can apparently do with other, bigger telecom companies.)

There’s an Ooma gateway in your region that interfaces their VoIP service onto the traditional telephone network. That gateway is responsible for signalling your caller ID into the network too.

Your customers are likely looking for “XYZ Company” caller ID for their own internal routing and call handling.

Contact Ooma tech support and let them know what the issue is.
