VoIPTalk and Powwownow

Can anyone shed any light on the problem I am having when dialling
Powwownow's US conference number +1 712 432 2888 from my VoIPTalk SIP
account? The number is always answered automatically by a service
called 'royaltyfreemusic.com' with a repeated message and goes no
further. The number is accessible when dialling from a US landline or
Vonage but both VoIPTalk and Powwownow say its nothing to do with
them! VoIPTalk confirm my findings and get the same result. I have
no other connectivity issues with VoIPTalk.

I tried the number via justvoip and vyke. In both cases I got
unobtainable. You might try via a US provider and see if that works.
It's easy to get a US number if you look around on the Net.
I suspect that they may block calls that appear to come from the UK to
the US number because they want to make money on the UK 0844 number.

I wonder if they're doing some routing based on CLID? Perhaps try
withholding your CLID and see what happens?
