Watch Out Vonage-There's a New Sheriff In Town!

Just as an update, they also have 911 service.

Why would someone go for voiptelco when everything is available from a well known brand for the same cost?

Why would someone go to a local restaurant when everything is available from a well known brand like McDonald's for the same cost?...Personal Preference, that's why.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention some other reasons why VoIPTelco is better than "The well known brand":

No Set-up fees First Month Free No Cancellation Fees And they have an excellent Referral Program!

Like I said, I love the service.

Sekhar:

I was wondering if you are genuinely interested on getting an answer or if your are just asking a rhetorical question.

Are you defending Vonage? If positive, have you ever been a Vonage subscriber?

IMHO, Vonage wants to be the Microsoft of the VoIP business: they are arrogant, and use illegal practices. Additionally, their service is clearly directed to non-tech types, and they don't want you to use anything other than their approved hardware.

They are very happy to receive you as a subscriber, but if you try to disconnect the service, there will be no human being to take your call.

They offer a money back, but then they still charge your credit card. A friend of mine used the Amex facility that allows you to repudiate a fraudulent charge, after trying for days to get out from their service. Like the maffia, it's easy to get in, but impossible to get out.

This is not true! I canceled Vonage because of techical issues and not only did I speak to a person, but I didn't have to send the hardware back and they refund the disconnect fee (the person did give me a hard time and tried to get me to stay with them). The reason I canceled Vonage is because I couldn't get to their tec support to resovle the 3 major problems that I was having:

1.) Couldn't get to the voice mail from my phone 2.) Had to keep power cycling their adapter at least every other day 3.) Calls would come in but you could not hear them (this was happing radomly), however, never had out going calls never had that problem

I switched to Packet8 and was having simular problems however they have better tec support and the problem was my router.

Voange will be good for anyone that has a single computer, however, if you have a home network and are trying to use it remotely stay away form Vonage.

Packet8 has their problems as well though. Caller ID is just Number ID and you have to use 11 digits to call localy. An> Sekhar wrote:

I get answers to my questions. And even if they don't know right away, they do the research, get the answer and get right back to me with it. I Love It!

Hey Claywebb! What is your connection with voiptelco.net? Are you their chief marketing officer or #1 evanglist or what? I like

myself. It is everything you've described of that other company and $10 less a month to boot. -Matt Johnson

1. Please note: This is only if you purchase the Annual Service for 0. If you go with the montly service, you will pay .95. Let's make sure that we compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges.

1. No, I'm not an evanglist, just another satisfied customer.
