  1. Block incoming calls from U.S. phone numbers to Canada

    Blocking by country code:\n- While RingCentral doesn’t currently offer a direct “block by country” feature, you can manually enter the international dialing code (e.g., +971 for UAE) as part of the area code filter.\n- For broader protection, blocking should be done at the System Admin or Super Admin level so it applies across your entire account—not just individual extensions.\n\n\nCould you please confirm how we can block incoming calls from U.S. phone numbers? Our operations are focused exclusively on the Canadian market, and currently, nearly30% of our inbound calls are spam originating…

  3. Proposal: Automated SMS/WhatsApp Follow-Up After Announcement

    Objective:
    Enhance customer experience and engagement by implementing an automated communication workflow.
    Request:
    Set up a system where, after a call reaches the announcement stage, the system automatically sends an SMS or WhatsApp message to the customer/caller. This message can include important details such as confirmation, next steps, or support links.

    Why This Matters:

    ✅ Improved Customer Experience – Customers receive instant updates without waiting for a callback.
    ✅ Reduced Missed Opportunities – Keeps the conversation alive even if the call doesn’t connect fully.
    ✅ Efficiency & Consistency – Automated messages ensure every caller…

  4. Current Functionality:
    RingCentral's platform does not currently provide a user-facing option to directly submit or request that a company's numbers be added to a "Do Not Originate" (DNO) list. This process is typically managed through external industry-level databases and regulatory bodies, often without a streamlined user interface within the communication platform itself.

    Requested Functionality:
    We request the implementation of a feature within the RingCentral Admin Portal that allows customers to easily submit their "inbound-only" numbers for inclusion on a reputable "Do Not Originate" (DNO) list. This would be a proactive measure to protect our customers' brand reputation and prevent their…

  5. Problem: Current UK Emergency Response Location (ERL) validation strictly requires a "Premise" match in the Royal Mail database (via SmartyStreets). Valid physical locations that lack residential postal data (e.g., Maritime Lifeboat Stations, remote utility substations) are currently rejected, blocking safety compliance for enterprise customers.

    Use Case: RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) cannot register active Lifeboat Stations for 999 services because these facilities are not in the Royal Mail delivery database, despite having physical locations. (Reference Case: #29897714).

    Proposed Solution: Allow Latitude/Longitude coordinates to be accepted as valid ERL metadata when a standard postal address cannot be validated.

    Business Impact: Unblocks…

  6. My team uses direct messages regularly. As a fully remote team, it's a staple for our communication repertoire. Also, this idea probably sounds counterintuitive to the trend of reducing "noise", however, as an autistic person, I tend to get very focused, sometimes hyper-focused, on whatever I'm doing and entirely miss messages to me. This frustrates teammates as well as myself because as a fully remote team, it is expected that you respond to a direct message pretty quickly. RingCentral does not have any accessibility options to handle this, and the ones for Windows are insufficient. I know I could flash…

  8. Our users require enhanced workflow management tools for processing faxes directly within the RingCentral Desktop Application.

    The core need is the ability to:

    Tag/Highlight Faxes: Apply custom tags (e.g., "Invoice," "Patient Intake," "Urgent HR") to instantly categorize the fax type.

    Leave Comments/Notes: Add internal, persistent notes to a specific fax (e.g., "Requires manager approval," "Follow-up needed by EOD," or specific processing instructions).

    Track Status: Implement a simple status indicator (e.g., "New," "In Progress," "Completed") to clearly define where a fax is in the processing pipeline.

    Why this is important:

    Faxes often require different processing steps, and without a way to…

  13. Please add an option to change the transcript’s font size so users can increase or decrease text for better readability and accessibility, and enhance the transcription engine to produce more accurate wording, reducing errors and improving clarity during meetings.

  14. I suggest improving the level of control on the call recording features, to be able to enable settings like automatically stop recording voicemails or pause after 30 seconds of silence, this will help to improve the call analysis and remove calls where there was no interaction.

  15. The requirement of a locally installed desktop plugin, or the full mobile app to leverage the Microsoft Teams inegration make what could be a very powerful option less practical. Having the ability to use the embedded Teams app free of any additional software would be an ideal experience! The desktop plugin requirement introduces application packaging and delivery requriements that are not necessary with the RC web app raising the question as to why they are required for the Teams integration.

  16. Have the ability to set length in minutes for voicemail responses. Our customer stated to used to have it for 3 minutes and automatically cuts, prompting to the caller limit is reached. This was working just fine for the customer however they are now receiving messages longer. They need to be able to set this back to 3 minutes or adjust to preference

  19. For the current settings for the screen callers, the dropdown for "Ask for a name when" has "Not in contact list", which only exempts the personal contact list. It would be helpful if the synced contacts from Microsoft/Google were also included in this, so they wouldn't have to announce each time they call in to RingCentral users. The same goes with internal users.
