Re: one word: VONAGE!!
Have you thought about Skype? It is $30 a year for outgoing calls, and if you want your own phone # it is $60 a year.
Just remember, if you cancel with Vonage they are going to charge you $40 for quitting them.

Re: one word: VONAGE!!
My friend has vonage and she is out of service so often. Definitely not worth any potential 'savings'....good luck with your switch.

Hehehehehe, know that. I was smart and changed my CC info on my account to a used up prepaid. I have never seen a bill for disconnecting service, and they never charged my real CC for it. Originally Posted by tough guy

My mom has Vonage and rarely, if ever, has had problems with the service.

Re: one word: VONAGE!!
We have been using vonage for almost 2 months and so far so good. My dh works VO and he would be totally screwed without the phone.
The more you complain, the longer God makes you live.

Re: one word: VONAGE!!
Don't know if this is true but I've heard that you can't dial 911 with Vonage or it costs extra or something? If that is the case then Vonage is ****ed up!

Re: one word: VONAGE!!
I rarely call 911. If I need the police I call the phone number. This is easy to program into your phone for emergencies. When I call the direct line, they still have all the info., my address, name and phone number, on me.

Do you have cable internet? Some cable companies now offer phone service. It's coming to my area at the end of April/early may.
