VonageFollow

Thinking about trying this out. Anyone of you try this or any other VoIP service yet?

I used both Vonage and then Comcast and really have zero qualms with either service. Both services eat up a small amount of bandwidth but nothing that you'll even notice most of the time. At some point I realized that there was zero reason for us to have a home phone and we just kept the cellphones.

I've had Vonage for years and have had no complaints about it at all. One of the cool things I enjoy is being able to forward your voicemail to your email account.

Vonage as a company is going to ****. They were ahead of the other big players in the market like Verizon, Comcast, etc. by a few years, but they blew their lead by spending way more capital on advertising than they could afford, and not enough on improving their network and customer service. Then to top it off, they just lost a $58 million lawsuit to Verizon.

One of my co-workers highly recommendeds SunRocket. Unlimited nationwide calling and no activation fee for $200/year.

Personally, I just use my cell phone, though.

Don't go with Vonage. Such crappy service and if you need technical support you'd better have 5+ hours to wait and a friend fluent in gibberish to translate for you.
