After SunRocket burned out I needed to find another phone provider. I didn't want to go with either of the SunRocket "approved" phone suppliers. Instead I turned to BBR and looked at the rankings. At the time VoicePulse was #1 and so I went with them.
Ordering was pretty easy, just sign up on their website. Initial charge was $54.97 for activation fees and first month phone service. It took a while for the VoIP adapter to be shipped, but once received all I had to do was connect everything and it just worked and has been working since then.
Their website feels little "old", but it works and gets the job done.

| yes, Virginia, you can record out going voicemail I read somewhere that forwarding is free with "Unlimited US" plan ($20/mo); but it costs with "Unlimited local" that you (and I) have.
However, on the occasions that I actually used this feature - there was no charge. Don't know, if it's a glitch in a billing system, or "underpromise - overdeliver" but who am I to argue 
There is a way to set a personalized announcement on the voicemail - I know, because I have it But it was awhile since I set it up; so don't remember exactly.
I've been with them for a year and a half, and very happy. However, $10 more for open access seems excessive; and the web site is quite clumsy. Also, it would be nice if they allowed peering - they block both incoming and outgoing VoIP calls. | |

| Re: yes, Virginia, you can record out going voicemail "Also, it would be nice if they allowed peering - they block both incoming and outgoing VoIP calls." »i.dslr.net/v2/lite/grey/angry.gif [ ] Do I read you right - they really block incoming and outgoing calls from other VoIP providers? Hm, I was just about to sigh up with them. | |

| Re: yes, Virginia, you can record out going voicemail Just to be clear - they block IP (URI) calls. You can, of course call by the phone number... the old-fashioned way. But you can't, for example, call through SIPBroker or from FWD unless you have $10/mo extra "open access" plan. See »www.sipbroker.com/sipbroker/acti···itePages for example. | |
