Stay away. This is scam. The worst. You can’t seem to close your account.
We’ve used Flowroute now for a few months and are extremely happy with the service. Compare to others we’ve used, they’ve been the best. I also understand they are an actual carrier now which has made porting very easy in our experience.
The only negative I would say is that as a reseller with multiple customers, we have to create separate Flowroute accounts and billing is a bit of a chore, but those weaknesses are relatively easy to overcome with internal processes and I understand they are working on a multi-account portal.
We tried to port some numbers with FlowRoute, which according to flowroute website were portable. We were exchanging e-mails for a 3-4 days, because the invoices were “outdated” and after 5 days they notified us that the numbers are not even part of their network. (In other words not portable) I don’t want to go to the rest of the story, because it’s more personal, but adding up all the work for scan, e-maling, calling and etc – we lost about 3 hours just to hear “The web site is not very accurate when it comes to DID porting. When you port numbers please call us first”
As someone who has worked with dozens of telcos in my career, FlowRoute has been the hands-down best carrier to work with. Easy to use, friendly staff, reliable, and affordable.
I only wish I could more easily transition over clients who are entrenched with carriers who could care less about addressing issues and maintaining transparency when issues arise.
Flowroute’s customer service cannot be beat. Its team of telecom experts are there to provide the highest quality service and completely remove the frustration and complexity around porting. If you find yourself saying, “There’s got to be a better way!” Look no further than Flowroute.
