I've been notified that Vonage has reduced the price of their Premium Unlimited Plan to $24.99
The Premium plan offers unlimited calling throughout the US and Canada. If you currently spend more than $300 per year on phone service (and have cable or dsl service), this may be a good time to try Vonage.
You may sign up for a number in an area code across the country. Mom (or your sweetheart) can then call a local number and reach you without large toll charges. Unlimited minutes, no toll charges. Your phone will ring anywhere in the US or Canada, anywhere you can access a cable connection.
Call waiting, call forwarding, voicemail, caller ID and other services are included with all plans.
The modem is supplied by Vonage; you supply a normal telephone handset. (a setup fee is added to the first months charge) Billing is by credit (or debit card) card charge only. Bills are available online. No paper bills are ever sent.
I've had the service for about 8 months. Sound quality is good, setup is simple. You can travel with your phone or move locations by merely plugging your modem into any cable hookup. The phone does not disrupt your computer function. You can surf and talk with no problem. Computer is not required for the phone to function, but cable internet access *IS* required.
Additionally, I can send you an email coupon good for a free months service. Merely drop me an email to snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com with "send me a Vonage coupon" or something similar in the subject line. I'll have them send the coupon direct from Vonage. (what's in it for me?--- I get a free month too) You must have the coupon BEFORE signing up for service.
