Bad PR for Verizon

Beside Verizon's "were always better" attitude, and were the phone company!, "opps just lost Peoria. " mindset, I am grateful for cable voip. Hey verizon $20 a month unlimited, with voicemail and other features can you match ?

That 4.93 would put Vonage as more expensive than verizon's VOIP product.

Sounds exactly how the telco's put mom and pop ISP's who introduced most people to the real internet, out of business. They did this by offering us the ability to provide DSL services, but after their fees we could not match their prices and make a profit that could keep us open.

That's how they still act 21 years later.

Wow, I think that was the same equipment in my CO prior to the upgrade to PON.

We don't care. We don't have to. We're the phone company.

With this money, if they get it, maybe VZ can afford to pay back PA all the money they stole.

reply to Jim Gurd
Even if you get vonage you still are paying either verizon or your cable company for internet access, I don't think they really care whether you go with someone else. I just look at it this way; if your neighbor was coming into your property and using your car without your permission would you not do something about this?. Some of you just dislike whoever is your provider so much what you can't intelligently analyze the situation

Jimmy, I'm really not sure what your point is. Verizon sucks for a lot more reasons than just this predatory action against Vonage. And Verizon apparently does care that someone is using their wires to deliver phone service. Your car-stealing neighbor analogy makes no sense.

Vonage may have its flaws, but it pioneered VOIP and has brought the cost of land line service down to a reasonable level.

I think cable co need to join together to form one ultra-phone company, and data.
