everything worked ok last night, now site is down ...

Internal Server Error

Undefined offset: 0

None of the numbers are working via Vonage nor Skype.

Anyone else getting an error?

i like the idea a lot, but payout is so small   .. its very hard to reach even 1$ / day

Please add Hong Kong.

Romania was just added. Please spread the word in the Romanian subforum as you offered.   Thank you!

Working on it.

How about adding Romania?
Asked this in the post above.. 

Sorry about that, technical problem. But no calls were lost and site is up again + calls + payouts were processed.

There have been services like "click on this link / do this action and get paid x cents" for over a decade on the web, and whether the payout is in BTC or USD or EUR is secondary.

Yap, has been down all weekend...

I'm just getting an error with the website.

Is there seriously a business for this kind of thing? Eventually we'll have "click on ads to earn BTC".

It would be great if you could add Romania too in the future .
I could promote it in Romania's subforum here.

Also,


 

We've just added Ukraine.

Yes, indeed we are stripping off the last few digits and compare whether someone with the "remaining" CLI is already connected. From coinbycall.com/faq:

Can I call simultaneously from different lines/SIMs/providers?

Yes, but you cannot place more than one concurrent call from the same caller ID (and neither from multiple extensions).

The reason is simple: we don't want multiple calls from the same person because we won't get paid for them.

Thanks, but it's not the problem in my case. Both landlines are sending full, addressable CIDs (+41245xxx832 and +41245xxx893) are connected by ATM-style encapsulation to the provider, then carried over the regular international PSTN, so pretty much nothing VoIP. I have called a friend on the fixed network in Finland and he got my full CID, at least.

By the way, I'm not a telecom engineer but this is one of the strangest way of failing a call I have seen yet, makes you wonder if the telco isn't re-routing the call to some monitoring circuit (no tinfoil hat here). It varies: sometimes, during call setup, you hear a long silence (can be 30+ seconds), then it rings w/o answering, gets seemingly redirected several times (cannot ISDN check it though), and then it times out ringing forever, or you just hear the 'call failed' signalling tone after a varying number of seconds. Pretty weird, really.

Another strange thing, when it was working from my landlines: I couldn't call Finland from both lines, even tough they had different, valid CIDs. I could call from mobile + landline though. It's like the CID uniqueness checking stripped the last n digits off the CID to avoid number from contiguous blocks from calling.

The thing is, I wouldn't be surprised or get mad learning that my provider (or CoinByCall) puts some restrictions in place, it's just that it's unclear whether it's a routing problem or a voluntary restriction.


Obviously, everyone would tell you to start with the countries where you get the most profitable payouts

That's why we liked Liechtenstein so much.

Finland doesn't work for some of us, some other country with similar pay rate would be nice.

Care to mention which countries? Together with matts' list that would make a decision easier.

EDIT: Oh.. 10k/min.. that is quite unrealistic unfortunately! Right now Finland is already the best paying country available.

I also can call to a bunch of countries for free, if you could add one or two more profitable, like 10k satoshis/minute, that would be great...

pedrog already explained it.

That is quite a list of countries, I wouldn't even know where to start. We need more demand for a country before we can (try to) add it.
