   The latest update of our Carrier partner reads that voice traffic has been rerouted from an interconnect where the fault behaviour was observed.

We apologise for the inconvenience this may have caused.

   Our Carrier partner is now satisfied that the re-route action has resolved the call quality issues experienced by customers. Testing and customer feedback are positive, inbound calling now working with no audio issues. 8x8 is monitoring and investigating the root cause and we apologize for the inconvenience.
