Suddenly, I can not call french numbers

Recently I got word that a certain speed dial could not be called.
Yesterday I tried and it was working (did nothing to fix this)

Today I was told the number wasn’t working again.
Upon investigation I found out that all call to France (calls beginning with 0033xxxxxx) do not work anymore.
I can call to Poland, Great Brittain, Germany and other countries without a problem, only French numbers won’t work.
Calling the French number from my mobile works!
When calling via VitalPBX, I get the following spoken message: “I am sorry. No route exists to the dialed destination.”
Officially I am dialing from a CM.com trunk, but I also tried calling with a trunk from CheapConnect.nl.

Does anyone has an idea what this might be ?

That means your outbound routes don’t match the number format you are dialing!

With outbound routes do you mean routes from my voip provider ?
Or do you mean the Outbound Routes from VitalPBX ?

If the latter, are you talking about the “Dial Pattern” somehow not matching ?
If so, could you provide me a good “Dial Pattern” for 00337000001586911 ?

I meant the PBX Outbound Routes!

About your question, let me answer with another question:

What are your current Outbound Routes’ definition?

Do you have multiple outbound routes?

They are “toast”.

Sorry, couldn’t resist.


Ola Miguel, I use this pattern for all my outbound routes. This works for me when calling local calls, inter local calls and international calls.
It has been some years ago, I figured this out once and I believe it’s ok, but if you see an error please let me know :slight_smile:

It looks like the problem not being able to call to French phonenumbers was an issue at my provider.
When I created a ticket at my provider, they replied they had the same problem and were gonna investigigate this problem.
The next day I was able to make cals to France again.
That’s probably why my Grandstream phone was giving a 403 (or 404??) error when calling to France. My provider was somehow blocking these calls.

Thanks for the update!
