USA Status Feature
Overview
Retrieve the status of a USA MOBILE telephone number if the telephone number is detected as a USA mobile telephone number.
If the number is identified as belonging to a USA territory we CANNOT obtain the status. The USA territories are:
Puerto Rico
Guam
US Virgin Islands
We will translate the status for the telephone number to our standard live_status field and include an additional output field usa_status to indicate that this optional parameter was turned on.
IMPORTANT - This feature is only available for mobile numbers. If the number entered is identified as a non mobile number NOT_AVAILABLE_NETWORK_ONLY will be returned in the live_status response field.
