Well, I am done with voicestick. Tired of the outages, crappy call quality, etc. This has been going on for several months now. I will weigh my options.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
I found out about this company from reading posts on the voip forum and decided to check them out. They are excellent so far (one week).
Plan:
A lot of people don't know about them so I guess they are a best kept secret. I am using an adapter I already have and have a byod pay as you go plan. Its called the nexttonothing plan. For $10.00 you get to make outgoing calls at 2c a min and incoming are 1.2 cents a minute. You use the $ on your account per your usage and anything left at the end of the month carries over to the next month.
Free voicestick to voicestick calls. You do pay a minimum of $1.00 a month. E911 is included. They have other plans (unlimited, international) but this one was best for me since I do not use many minutes at home.
A very big plus is NO extra monthly charges at all!
Features:
They have a great feature called i2bridge. You can call your voicestick number with your cell phone and (after you set it up beforehand with your cel phone number) you get a dialtone! You can then dial out to any international number at voicestick's super cheap rates.
You can also use the i2bridge to make local calls if your cel minutes are running low.
This is a great feature. Also there is global call forwarding. They will forward all your incoming calls to a number anywhere in the world at the rates you would get with your calling plan. Very good and inexpensive option.
There are also all the other options you would get with any other voip provider.
Tech support:
I emailed tech support for settings for my device settings (Linksys spa3102). They emailed me back within 3 hours with settings even though they do not officially support devices other than the one on their site. That was on a Saturday.
Summary:
Well overall I am very satisfied. No contract, very low fees, and they have someone (Bruce N) who posts at the broadbandreports.com voip forums on a regular basis. Their website is not the greatest, but I read that they are working on a new one.
I am surprised to not see many reviews here and would suggest to Bruce N to send an email to new subscribers asking them to review their service here or in other forums they frequent.
