Sadly both companies dropped the ball a bit.. I was going to order dual play from Optimum (and pay about $70-$75/month for boost plus & OV), but they won't port out of area code numbers.. their loss and now have OOMA for voice. OOMA is probably the most reliable outside of a Vonage type service for which you'd pay upwards of $30/month to have what optimum or verizon offers for more when unbundled or slammed with taxes and fees. Also, a docsis 3 modem battery (NOT INCLUDED!!!) costs $50? REALLY!? $50!!! I was told this is even an extra OPTION for their dual & triple play voice customers!! The whole modem including battery costs about $70 online from amazon which makes the battery (found on ebay about $20 w/ free shipping)-- not that I need it.. I already have a 1500va ups which will hold for about 3-8 hours depending on load time. Will have to see what they both offer in 2013 when this deal expires. For around $50 you could buy a cheap car battery with an inverter you may already have and a battery charger and be good for 24+ hours. They also made me pay $20 for installation so, hosed on single play services.. but that still beats Verizon's pay more or leave deals.
