Update 06-24-13:

I am still using them for outgoing calls and I am completely satisfied with the call quality. I can't remember any calls that I have had a problem with. Also, call connection time is probably the lowest out of all of the voip providers that I've tried.

Their website is still a confusing mess. It is difficult to see call records and to see how much you were charged for each call.

Original Review 12-15-12:
I have been trying Vitelity for outgoing calls only. Reliability and call quality have been excellent. I have not had a single call fail to go through.

Pros:
-Excellent call quality and reliability
-Use of SRV DNS records
-Rates of $0.0144/min for calls to US numbers
-Support for 10-digit dialing
-Sub-accounts
-Calls have low latency
-Free calls to toll-free numbers

Cons:
-$35 minimum initial balance
-Confusing user portal
-Call records can only be seen by requesting a report be emailed to you (in CSV format)
-USF (currently 8.4%) is deducted from each payment that you make

Yeah, once my balance is used up, I don't think I will continue to use them.

Re: Agree....

USF is a mandatory tax. Should we break the law and not charge it?

The tax is on PROVIDERS.

NOT customers.

-------------------------------

A provider can choose whether to pay the tax as part of the cost of doing business, just as they pay their other taxes, and pay salaries, and pay all of their other expenses....

....OR a provider can pass on the USF tax to the customer, as a separate item not listed in the base price. That makes their advertised prices look falsely lower compared to their competitors.

Re: Agree....

Maybe both are wrong?

Adding it as a separate item is good. It helps keep prices low. You can apply for exemption. Most carriers put USF separate. Not a trick. Complaining about it is only for very small users, maybe.

But you say they take USF when you pay. Are you sure? Because USF is not owed on *all* services. Look it up to find out when you must pay USF. Google says this is has been a problem before, when a carrier charges USF when it is not owed.
