I received the SMS campaign decline notice, italicized text below. As you can see there's no explanation. Does anyone have any suggestions/ideas? I mean, I can't fix it if I don't know what is wrong with it. Your SMS campaign has not been provisioned because of the following reason, Upstream CNP declined sharing request for campaign C8YLDJF. Explanation: C8YLDJF. The rest of the email are the links to Best Practices and other articles.

I have a Zoom Pro account and wanted to take advantage of the free trial Zoom Phone offer I recently got via email to see if this service is for me. I am a one-person consultancy, and need a single DIRECT phone line that doesn’t require a caller entering an extension to reach me. I can’t find anything in your support articles that tells me how to do this. It seems your phone service is totally designed for companies requiring multiple lines with extension numbers to reach anyone. If there’s no way to do what I need (i.e. get my Zoom number to ring directly, without needing an extension), then this service obviously isn’t for me and I’ll need to discontinue the phone as part of my Zoom account. Please advise.

I have created a band with Sole Proprietor entity types this morning and now it shows active.
I don't see where to create a new sms campaign.
Trying to submit a new SMS campaign and I get ERROR: The length of parameter help message cannot exceed 320 characters.
Zoom Phone users at my organization have repeating meetings every week (e.g., 1:00 - 2:00 p.m., every Monday), and they would like to silence incoming Zoom Phone calls during those times. We use MS Outlook as our organizational standard, and it looks like the MS Office/Zoom plug-in only indicates that the person is in a meeting based on Outlook Calendar.. but does not put the phone on Do Not Disturb. Is there a way to automatically set repeating Do Not Disturb times? Thanks!

It is taking the system 20-21 seconds to answer an incoming call to a Zoom Number. Why is this so long?
I want the system to pick it up immediately.
Is there a setting I can change to make this happen?
With the new fax feature (very exciting!), I had a question:
I see that I can send a fax using a number assigned to a Call Queue, but it seems like I can't receive faxes to a Call Queue number. Is there a way to set up a fax inbox for numbers assigned to a Call Queue, or is fax receiving limited only to individual user numbers for now?

Hi ya'll! We submitted a number port request that was rejected by our current carrier, but is stuck as "pending" in the zoom portal. Ideallly, we could delete that port request and attempt again with different port details, but the delete button is grayed out. Anyone aware of a solution for this issue?

The Cisco 9800 series of desk phones have been out for about a year now but I am not seeing any mention of them on the big cloud VOIP phone providers like Zoom, 8X8, RingCentral, Nextiva, etc. My rep tells me an internal roadmap shows them as possibly being certified in June 2025. We are very seriously contemplating switching to Zoom phone and the hardware is a big element of the switch away from our legacy Avaya on prem PBX. So far, we are very impressed with Zoom Phone. We've been testing the Poly Edge phones and they are nice, but the Cisco 8800 and 9800 series devices seem just a tad higher quality, maybe more substantial, etc.I like the larger buttons. We like the Poly Edge phones, but if given a choice I'd probably pick the Cisco phones after holding both in my hands. I don't want to deploy the 8800 series (they are certified on Zoom) because they are 10 years old and lack certain modern features like Zoom App Call Control (dialing on PC in Zoom app and it dials your desk phone where your headset is attached). They would probably be OK, but I'd feel bad deploying something 10 years old and would probably regret it. I'd be really curious if anyone else is waiting patiently for the Cisco 9800 series phones to be supported.
