I've searched on this and cant seem to find an answer.
I have a toll free did that we're using for a contest line. I have the system setup as a queue. We allow 4 callers in the queue at a time and then play busy for the others. The problem is, we're getting 1000's of calls each time we play it. I've spent about $100 just today before noon.
Even just playing the busy tone is generating a lot of cost.
My provider, Flowroute, used to offer a virtual pri that would allow me to lock down my channels to however many I wanted. For some reason, they stopped this offering on toll free lines. I assume so dummy's like me, rack up incredible bills lol. I've spent about $500 this week on the contest and need to figure out how to lock this down even more.
Can I limit the busy signal to just 5 seconds so that I don't pay more for someone slow to hang up?
I do know that I can just terminate the call, but then it goes dead when they call and that makes people mad, so that is out. What can I do?
