Busy Signal

Post by StevenK123 »

Hi All. I've had MagicJack for a few weeks now and everything has worked fine. I've been very happy. But a couple days ago all of a sudden I have been able to call any phone number with a 410 area code. I'm in Baltimore City. And my area code is 443. 410 is also a local Baltimore number. 410 numbers are able to call in to me. But whenever we try and call a 410 number it's busy. I've tried everything. Even went into a live chat with someone from magicjack and they were no help at all. lol

Any help would be great.

The SAME THING is happening to me!!

I live in a 609 area code, but chose the more popular town just north of me (next town over) in a 732 area code as my majic jack number.
Technically, its still a local number.


Beginning today, everytime I try to call a number in 609 area code, I get a busy signal.
Went to online chat, and they only said they would have to "escalate the issue" and wait for a response from them via email in 48 hours.

I am getting an invalid number today on calls if my PC is turned off (or logged into my regular account for using the PC).

Let us know if it helps to dial in this format:

For example, to call 410-555-1212, dial *674*105551212
to call 609-555-1212, dial *676*095551212

Anyone still having this problem? I am using the "dial-around" but still very annoying.
