International phone number testing with Gtele.com
Our current capability allows us to test phone numbers in more than 140 countries. We can test local landlines, VoIP services, toll-free numbers, and in-country mobile (cell phone) numbers.
This service is used across multiple vertical markets. Below are some examples of how our customers use international phone number testing to protect their operations and customer experience.
Pharmaceutical industry
We frequently test phone numbers for customers in the pharmaceutical sector. These phone numbers are typically published on the side of medicines or in the accompanying pamphlets. Pharmaceutical companies contract with us to test their numbers on a regular basis to ensure they are working and in service.
Any faulty numbers are reported back so they can raise a fault with their carrier. It is often imperative that these numbers work in-country: if there is a medical emergency and a patient cannot report an issue, the situation can escalate quickly.
Airline industry
We test phone numbers globally for several airlines. Tests are often completed on lines that are not used frequently. These numbers can be emergency or disaster recovery lines that are only used in the event of an incident.
Some carriers automatically deactivate lines if there is no usage. Our testing not only generates traffic on these numbers, helping to keep them active, but also identifies if a number has been taken out of service due to non-usage.
Hotels and travel
The travel and hospitality industry relies heavily on phone numbers for customer service and booking lines. If a line is faulty in-country, the risk of a potential customer booking with an alternative provider is high.
Our phone number testing service for the travel and hospitality sector gives customers the reassurance that their global telephony is working as expected, and that key booking and service numbers are available when needed.
How phone number testing works
Our phone number testing service is straightforward. All we need from you is a list of the phone numbers you would like tested and the countries we should test from. We then schedule the tests and report back to you with the following details:
- Time and date of the test call
- Phone number tested
- Number tested from (in-country)
- The test result – pass or fail
- A link to listen to the call so that you can hear the call quality or any error message
Once we have completed the testing, we will send you a full report containing the above details along with a clickable link to listen to each test call.
Pricing for telephone number testing
Pricing for this service is charged on a per-test basis. The costs are as follows:
- One-off test to a phone number from a landline in-country – £10
- One-off test to a phone number from a mobile in-country – £10
- If you order a test from both a mobile and a landline at the same time, the combined cost is £18
The service can be ordered as a one-off, or you can schedule tests to take place daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly.
If you are interested in getting any of your global phone numbers tested and would like to learn more about this service, please contact us. We will be happy to discuss your requirements and recommend a testing schedule that fits your needs.
