At one point Vonage had a plan that included unlimited local calling, and 500 minutes of long distance.
It's still offered in Canada, but was discontinued in the US when the unlimited plan dropped to $24.99 (which was the original price of the unlimited-local-calls plan)

IIRC, that plan was not grandfathered, all users were upgraded to the unlimited calling plan which is the same price.
