I ordered MagicJack, only to discover they didn't have a local prefix for my area code. I sent it back. I inquired today to see if they had a local prefix # for my area code and.... Well here is how that went.
Please wait for a site operator to respond.
You are now chatting with 'Alma'
Alma: Hello, how may I help you?
Jerry: Do you have prefix #'s 533 or 534 for area code 530 yet? Or any local prefix for Oroville Ca.?
Alma: Thank you for raising your concern, let me assist you with that.
Alma: Available Area Codes
Alma: URL
Alma: ok ,please visit this link,Jerry/
Alma: Jerry.
Jerry: It is not the area code I am concerned about. It is the prefix within that area code. The reason I am concerned about that is that I can't truely replace my existing phone if you don't have a local prefix.
Alma: i see.
Alma: please check that one to your MJ URL,Bill?
Alma: then please let me know if you are done ok?
Jerry: I sent my MJ back because you had my area code (530) but you didn't have a local prefix for Oroville. I am inquireing again to see if that has been rectified!
Jerry: I would like to try it again, but not unless the local prefix problem has been solved!
Jerry: Are you there?
Alma: yes i do apologize for the inconvenience,Bill.
Jerry: Jerry
Alma: im checking that information for you.
Alma: ok im sorry Jerry.
Jerry: Not a problem, I'm confused half the time myself.
Alma: ok i will help you and never leave you untill that problem resolve.
Jerry: OK
Jerry: 532,533,534,538,&589 are the local prefix #'s for Oroville.
Alma: may i know please where is that Oroville?
Jerry: California
Jerry: Right now it appears you only have local prefix #'s for Marysville Ca which is a toll call from Oroville Ca.
Alma: we have available area code 530 but the prefix is 402 woodland.
Jerry: Yes I know. But that too is a toll call.
Jerry: Without a local prefix, MJ is only good to me for long distance. And every one calling me from Oroville Ca. would have to pay a toll.
Alma: One moment please...
Alma: One moment please...
