Phone

I have a user experiencing some issues with accepting calls through Zoom mobile. They are having difficulty accepting calls through Zoom on the company cell phone and the Zoom pop up screen that displays when a call is coming in is also not showing up.  In the Zoom mobile call history, there is also a message that says "The calling feature in this application has been disabled by your administrator." I've updated the application and restarted the device and for a while they can make/receive calls but then the issue starts again. I've matched the user's settings with someone else that isn't having any issues and the pop up still displays. Any help is appreciated!

I've noticed when managing or creating new User Roles for our admins, that the Phone System Management section is just all all for one or none for all. We can either enable the role full access to the entire phone system or no access at all. We have admins of different levels, but even our lowest level creates accounts and assigns licensing, so they need to access Phone System Management to add a user to the phone system, as well as the appropriate license for the user. However, they don't need the ability to go into Auto Receptionists or Call Queues and make changes. I'd love for the role permissions in the Phone System Management be expanded to let us get more granular.

Is there any possible way to prevent users from using their individual voice numbers for Online Fax while still allowing them to use the Call Queue number?  We have a department that has high turnover and deals with the public for processing government paperwork.  We want to prevent the use of their personal line to send/receive faxes as that may allow missed filings if submissions come in after an employee separation occurs.  Plus when that extension is re-assigned it may go to another employee that doesn't need to fax and we want to avoid that number being circulated and the new employee receives a bunch of annoying inbound fax attempts.

We are just migrating from another provider over to Zoom Phone. On our old provider, we have 1 phone number configured to send email notifications to a group email address when new SMS messages are received so multiple team members are aware. I've learned that Zoom Phone does not support email notifications for SMS messages, which is really strange. With that said, I did find there is SMS capabilities for auto receptionists and call queues that may solve this problem, but sales said we'd have to buy one Zoom Power Pack license for every Zoom Phone user. We have 8 users. That means $200 just to have multiple users notified when we receive an SMS message. That's more than we pay for our entire Zoom Phone system right now and seems ridiculous. I'm hoping there's another option here for such basic functionality. How have you notified multiple users of incoming SMS messages?

Hello,I registered my LLC two months ago today and submitted my 10DLC brand the same day and it's still pending. How do I get this looked at/who do I have to talk to? Thanks!

I am on the Zoom Phone Pro Global Select Unlimited plan (with an assigned international number for South Africa). Does anyone know if this allows me to make unlimited calls to SA ? Or will the cost of calls be on top of the monthly plan costs ? Alternatively, what is the most cost effective plan to call SA ?Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi,We are looking for a way to have a phone automatically dial an extension when the handset is picked up.The use case:A waiting room in a medical facility. We want to install a phone in the waiting area so that when someone picks up the handset, it will automatically dial the nurses' station. Thanks! 

Hi we have a main phone auto receptionist that will direct dial some call queues, but for others, we want to leave a dialback option, so that when a user makes a selection, if they change their mind they can return to the main menu and make a different selection.The only way I'm finding to make this happen is by setting up a secondary auto receptionist for those lines (I would love is there was a better solution at this level). In doing that we have a scenario that runs somewhat like this:Main IVR: Customer selects 3Secondary IVR, "You have reach team 3 who handle the following types of calls (e.g). Please stay on the line while we connect you or press 1 to return to the main menu or 0 to leave a voicemail."Auto IVR message (that we would like to remove) "if you know the extension of the person you are trying to reach please dial it now or press zero to return to the operator...please wait while we connect your call."This IVR message is conf

We are a bilingual organization (French/English) based in Canada. When configuring voicemail greetings and auto-receptionist messages in Zoom Phone, we are currently required to create audio files manually because the text-to-speech (TTS) tool only allows us to choose one language/voice at a time.Our need: We would like an option to concatenate or alternate French and English within a single text-to-speech greeting, ideally with:The ability to select different voices or languages within the same audio message (e.g., first section in Canadian French, second section in Canadian English);An interface optimized for bilingual organizations, where we could easily create professional, seamless dual-language greetings;Compliance with accessibility and official language standards in Canada.Currently, combining both languages requires us to make external audio recordings, which is time-consuming and less flexible for updates.This improvement would greatl

Hello, We are looking to setup an escalations support line for our customers. Is it possible to give out a phone number that would be a conference call where multiple support agents could then answer and join in?  Thanks!

Hi everyone,  I would appreciate your input on this issue.We use Yealink T58W phones; these phones are constantly rebooting for firmware updates.When the firmware reaches 40% the phone reboots and does the same thing again & again, not stopping.Reached both yealink and zoom.They are not able to find the resolution yet.Is anyone experiencing the same issue?Also, on the Yealink phone, the admin/admin credentials aren't working for me.Did a factory reset as well. Best Regards,Manoj

Hello, We are getting setup with Zoom Phone and we have a few Yealink desk phones. Does anyone know how to add contacts from within our organization who use Zoom, so I can have them on my phone with their Zoom presence?  Thanks

When I get an SMS or a voicemail on my Zoom workplace phone account, I want the system to send me an email alert. I'm used to Google Voice doing this, but just switched to Zoom phone. Please tell me there's a way?Thanks!

It would be really nice if we were able to choose where a phone call notification popped up on our screen. Currently, there is only one option: a giant white pop up in the middle of your screen while you're trying to do your job. I'm an administrative assistant and I watch several different phone lines, but I don't always have to answer them. Jabber has a very unintrusive phone call notification pop up in the lower right hand corner of the screen right above the system tray. This option needs to be added for Zoom.  Apologies for not knowing what all the official technology terms are, I am not a tech person.

I work for a nonprofit organization and we have been trying to get an SMS campaign submitted for months. I have followed the campaign creation checklist to a T, and I continue to get vague rejection messages that don't make sense based on all the work we've done to make our campaign legitimate. It's frustrating because we don't use Zoom texting for any commercial purposes anyway- we rely on it to communicate with our clients. Below is the message I got with our most recent campaign rejection:Upstream CNP declined sharing request for campaign CWIOFGR. Explanation: Opt in message does not have brand or disclosures, Inadequate details on website consent methodI left the Opt-in Message as it was when I submitted the form (Zoom automatically creates it for you, and I would assume they do so with the appropriate requirements in place) so I'm confused as to how that could be the issue. Here's the message: "Text START to receive

Hello prior to upgrading to the app version 13 when a call use to come in and i was on the other line it would display on the phone. Now it displays on the phone and this loud sound constantly till you answer the call. This leads me to not hear the people i am on the call with. How do i turn this off. 

I am a single user using zoom full time during my business day. There is no need whatsoever for 99% of my calls to ever be recorded and the prerecorded message by zoom about recording is too long, too impersonal, and scares off potential callers. I've spent hours attempting to reset the recording options to no avail and it still is apparently recording and even if it isn't recording it's playing that stupid message every time I dial. How do I put an end to that or as a minimum record my own message referencing recording?

One of my users cannot answer calls from the lock screen on his Samsung S23. If the phone is unlocked he can answer calls just fine but when the screen is locked there's just a progress circle animation that says please wait. We tested this on a Google Pixel and there was no issue answering from the lock screen. Any insight on what may be causing his problem?

Hi, I am trying to get the zoom phone subscription because I am moving to Zoom from skype. But every time it shows error 5613 and I am still unable to get the subscription. Anyone help please!

The Voicemail tab has the ability to mark messages as "unread" but the SMS tab does not. Often I get an SMS and need to check it to see if it's an emergency...and if not I want to mark it as Unread so I remember to check it again later. Seems like a pretty standard feature...and hopefully easy to implement. Can this be added? Also hoping to get some thumbs-up here to help Zoom realize this is of value. Thanks!

We have recently integrated Zoom with our ServiceNow instance and the team handling phone calls in the workspaces area has advised the Zoom Contact Center UI takes up a large portion of the screen and closing the phone while on a call has caused issues for some. You can drag it and move it to another part of the existing window, but is there an option to pop it out into it's own window?

Is there a possibility to automatically log you out of the queue when going on DND (Do Not Disturb)?

i am buying trying to buy the zoom phone but not able to. when i am trying to buy it is saying error:5613. How to solve the matter. I am in Pakistan and i need to buy Zoom Phone USA & CA unlimited.  

I've come to terms with the fact that the SMS for Zoom is not going to work for my business and I'm looking for other options which saddens me. For starters, I can't opt-in a client manually to receive texts. Nor can I find information that explains why I can or can not. If I had a client for a long time I would prefer to indicate that they have verbally agreed to SMS if they have asked to receive information. I deal with a lot of grieving people and they hate extra steps. Some clients or new clients forget to opt-in and become a little agitated with not getting the information that they requested promptly. Then, I just had an issue where I can't send videos of my products via text, only photos. In what world does SMS not include video submissions. Maybe it's me but I would like to be able to communicate in whatever way the client needs. Furthermore, phone calls having weak singles when I'm not at my desk is troublesome. I'm begging for help.
