- pixl97 3y agoQuite often you'll find that the doctors office is part of a larger system for an entire medical center. Your call can get routed out any open physical line. These days fully VOIP systems will mask the number as the primary, but some systems still have physical connectivity to the phone companny.
- renewiltord 3y agoIf you use Google Fi, you just view the voice transcript and then call back.
- TylerE 3y agoOh I wish. I’m in Optimum (Former Suddenlink) territory. It’s only in the past year I was able to upgrade from 300mbps to gigabit, and it ain’t fiber. Also obvious that the local techs have no clue what they’re doing since the link goes down several times a night briefly, always at exactly 15 minutes after the hour. It’s obvious there’s a switch or something that they’re just rebooting every night.
- lamontcg 3y agoGoogle Fi != Google Fiber One is a cell phone plan, one is an ISP.
- TylerE 3y agoOh. Shrug. I hate android so I don’t really follow that ecosystem
- cguess 3y agoI have it on iPhone and it works very well.
- lamontcg 3y agoYeah, I have it on an iphone even though I'd prefer not to, but I haven't found a competitor worth switching to.
- TylerE 3y agoHow does that work? I thought there was no way to override the default dialer? Or is it just an app running over data?
- toast0 3y agoGoogle Fi is an MVNO. They give you a sim, service is provided via T-Mobile mostly. (It used to have Android required special roaming on Sprint, but T-Mobile absorbed Sprint, so that's moot)
- TylerE 3y agoAhh.c that explains it. I’ve been on sprint forever, on a long grandfathered unlimited plan. I was only actually swapped to a T-Mobile sim about 6 months ago.
