As I understand it, you are required to have one and only one registered relay number per the government.

I have Sorenson which I use through AIM on my cell phone. However, I would like to use CapTel as they have an app for android.

My question is: Do I have to get another number for CapTel or can I give them the Sorenson number? Or, do I give them the cell number?

Thanks.
 
Well - my CapTel is on my landline phone, so it's the same as my home phone. I don't have Sorenson yet, but I do have Purple's P3 and have a different number for that.

At my Deaf club, they have Sorenson, ZVRS, and P3 and all have different numbers as far as I know.
 
I was told by Sorenson that you can only have one registered relay number.

My other question is: Has anyone upgraded the Sidekick4 data plan, $29.99 a month to add voice. How much more was it to add voice?

Perhaps I need a new thread for that one.
 
Well - the CapTel is not a relay phone like video phones. It's all captioned.

I think the Deaf club was able to get the different numbers because of how many people it serves.

I have a friend who has both Sorenson and ZVRS and only 1 number. Maby you can only have 1 number for VP's and since CapTel is not a VP it doesn't fall into that rule.
