Has anyone else had issues with calling the 867 area code in Canada. For those who do not know, it is the area code for all three northern territories - Yukon, NWT, and Nunavut. I have not been able to get through to any numbers I call there, instead all I get is a busy signal before the call even goes through. I know their service is working because I've called from a regular phone and they're fine.

I have tried several times to call the nwt and l have even used Inernational calling numbers and I can't get through and after asking Shaw Operator and almost being yelled at I got a hang up. I thought that Magic was good for all ofCanada:cry:

Went through same crap and finally finally was told its to expensive to use area code 867 at this time. So much for false ads. Anyways if your interested I bought 500 minutes from keep calling at 1 cent a minute. Used there toll free numbers much like a calling card and got through to Yellow Knife, Hopes this helps you out,

It doesn't cost more to call the teritories since I use the Talkit device for VOIP calls for free without a problem, it is magicjack themselves who are blocking the 867 numbers for whatever reason. They should be sued on a class action basis for false advertising (or at least a complaint to the competition bureau is warranted)

I live in Area code 867. Now if you have prepaid minutes you can call 867, they say conference call. It works but they said I get 120 min. for @20. Pretty pricy. Northwestel the phone co. here is 1/2 that. I can call anywhere in NA with magic jack but I can't call numbers in my own area code. or call my home from where I travel???
