"Its cheap" "I have problems making outgoing calls. People have problems making incoming calls." "It was good before I signed up for 2 years. Major regrets. Won't do it again."

I am extremely disappointed with Phone Power. I had the service for two years with minimal problems.
A month ago, I dropped to the lower rate and signed up for two years. HUGE mistake. I can't wait until the two years are up. I will never have phone service with them again. One of two things happens. When people are trying to call me, they get a message that says I no longer have phone service. I DO have phone service. The cost of it is automatically charged to my credit card every month. There is no chance there is a lack of payment problem.
When I called support for help with this problem, they told me that I had to have the phone number from which this person (or people) called and the time they called. How can I have the phone number and time of the call when the person (or people) can't even call me to talk to me. If they can't call me to talk to me, they can't call me to tell me they tried calling me and were told I didn't have phone service.
My second problem is that when I try to make an outgoing call, I can not. I get a message that says "We're sorry. Your call can not be completed at this time. Please try your call later." Why? Why can't I make a call? Nothing is wrong with MY system.
So now I can't make outgoing calls and I can't get incoming calls. Take my advice. Do not use Phone Power for your phone service. You will be sorely disappointed.

How do you know folks are getting a not in service recording if you are unaware of anybody trying to call you since they cannot get through? Either you know this is happening because someone told you (and you can give their number to PhonePower) or you are completely unaware of the problem. | |

| Did you conact support?
You have made not mentioning of you containg support? Looks like this is more of a rant thread then anything else? Without more information there is no credibility! -- I got the need for speed »bit.ly/topgunparody | |
