Nice try but this won't work with a lot of security providers.

Lookup APIs are available to identify line type and most will specifically reject voip numbers. The more obstinate providers I have encountered (some banks for example) will actually have a real human place a call to any number provided at sign up and reject it if they can't verbally talk to you.




It supports voice as well at this price - I use it with Linphone to receive and place calls plus I was also able to setup a forward rule where any calls to voip.ms numbers will be forwarded to my cellphone. Edit: you are right though that plenty of providers reject it as being a voip number.
