I guess Skyetel doesn't want business
-
Hey Guys,
Behold our new sign up page!
From the feedback here, we made the following changes:
- You can now re-use your mobile number on 5 new accounts per month (so go nuts @JaredBusch )
- The new field "Direct Contact Number" serves as the direct phone number for the customer; this is the number we call if there is a fraud event or a porting emergency. (so please make it a real phone number)
- We made it prettier
Thanks for everyone's feedback - feel free to take it out for a spin!

@Skyetel Nice work

1The point is that it is not intuitive that the 1 is needed. Especially as Skyetel only does US numbers right now.
Also, you only need a single ` for an inline code highlight, not 3.

I think this is the same as before? So I assume the number port in process is what was updated for that process.

I'll be calling

How is it not intuitive?
Literally any time I enter a number I'm adding the 1 on forms or dialing etc.

I never, ever, enter a 1 for anything.
All dial plans are built to use 10 digit dialing or look for the 011 prefix for international.
I didn't pull this out of my ass. It is based on how cell phones have operated for the last 30 years.

@scottalanmiller if you are alive and in a place with internet, it would be great if you split the last few posts about the new sign up to a new thread. I didn't think about it until after I posted.
"Skyetel new signup comments" or something.

I'm asking how is it not intuitive? You deal with calling plans 24/7 among other things, and thus it's unintuitive for you. Many other people wouldn't see this as an issue at all.

@JaredBusch and I just emailed about this. Should be fixed within a few hours - it's an edge case that is related to the payment method.
