Vonage... good, bad, ugly? - GoFuckYourself.com

Lycanthrope · 07-06-2005, 04:12 PM

Anyone using them care to share their experiences? Service in general / any hidden charges / tariffs such as those on "normal" phone bills.

This last phone bill pissed me off.

Thanks.

I love my Vonage. No hidden fees...ever.

Cut my phone bill from $300 + to about $120-that's keeping the landline upstairs.

No complaints at all.

i have no problem with their service...

i'v been using vonage since they came out like 2 years ago from Argentina.. i can make unlimited phone calls to all of the US and CANADA plus i have a US phone number.. paying just 25 bucks.. from 10.000km away.. nothing beats that.. the quality is better than the landline .. i just love it !

I use it and love it. Highly recommend it.

Their customer support sucks but you really don't need it. Pretty easy to use.
No real complaints. Much cheaper than a land line and better imo. I got unlimited long distance with a fax line for $40 / month(2 phone lines). Can't beat that.

We switched over to Vonage for our office and our home and we've had no problems at all. It's inexpensive and efficient.

top notch product

Lycanthrope · 07-06-2005, 05:21 PM

Thanks people,

They just rolled out in Canada and I signed up. I'm about to power down right now to plug in the adapter.

A little note: if you buy it from Future Shop or another store, you'll get charged $80 for the router. If you sign up online, there's the connection fee but no router charge.

2 years now and the price goes down and they email you "hey your price went down 5 bucks a month"
