Why am I getting a fast busy tone on outgoing calls?
1. You need to make sure that you are dialing all 11 digits of the phone number for ALL calls (except local calls) in the U.S. and Canada. For example, dial 1-212-345-6789 not just 212-345-6789. You should dial 011 + country code + city code + number for all International numbers.
