Calling 076 VOIP numbers from O2

Merjock · 05-10-2010 1:47pm #1

Currently, I don't seem to be able to call 076 numbers from my O2 mobile, which I used to be able to do. Anybody any suss on this? Is it possible with the other mobile operators?

I have no problems ..... maybe it was because Blueface service was down that you were unable to call for a time?

I have a similar issue. O2 say they have not made any changes to Voip calls and it may be a handset issue?

Has yours resolved itself?

Yes, back working as of today. I was in touch with ComReg about it, in case O2 had decided to cease connectivity to these numbers. They were quite helpful. Still not sure whether it was a Blueface or O2 problem, though.

ComReg were back onto me today. Apparently it was a connectivity issue
between O2 and UPC that caused the problem.

Yet again, unable to call 076 from my O2 mobile

From an O2 phone, Is anyone else having problems calling Ireland VOIP numbers which start with 076, a number you can test this on is

076 602 0000

It is a landline number by the way. I have called my landline at the above service number with no joy, also two other O2 customers on seperate mobiles have called my personal 076 number to no avail but when i call it from another landline or vodafone phone it connects fine.

For any O2 support reading this can you address this as a priority as no one on O2 can call 076 numbers it would seem.

Thanks in Advance

I tried my own VOIP number from an O2 mobile and received the call.

Mine is working now also looks like the addressed the issue.

Thanks for checking. It was off the air for over two days.

@Boarderuser This thread is over a year old.

I've just tried an 076 from my O2 mobile and its connects without a problem.

An 076 number by the way, Boarderuser is a Voice over Internet Protocol phone number. They were created as Comreg saw a need for a voip range to be added to the pstn. They are not landline numbers, but can be dialled from a landline.
