Re: Official TeleBlend Interview thread with CEO
said by robertfl  : 850 area code isn't represented well in the VOIP community (guess were not that populated enough) Perhaps you're not looking hard enough. As one example, Nuvio offers new service phone numbers with the 850 area code in 30 rate centers including Fort Walton Beach, Panama City, and Pensacola.

Depending on the full NPANXX that you have (850XXX), we might be able to support it. I can't give you an accurate answer because I don't know the full telephone number. Currently, we are not taking new sign-ups. Keep following our website for updates.
The Tech Support Team and Operations Staff is US Based.
Most Providers are using the G.711u codec. This means that it requires 64k on each end (add in some extra for overhead and whatnot) to preference a great sounding call. We will be adding G.729 shortly which is the 8k a leg like you have mentioned.
Like I stated, please keep coming back either here or our website to find out when we will be taking on new subscribers. It should be shortly. |

OK.. to the rep on here:
I've been looking at reviews and looking to change my VOIP service for quite some time.
I'm paying an assaning fee for unlimited service with my cable co's VOIP service and the only thing they have going for them is tech support.
If I do decide to switch to your product, will I be able to keep my telephone number (probably not) 850 area code isn't represented well in the VOIP community (guess were not that populated enough)
Also, is your tech support in the US or outsourced?
One more thing you should know is that SOME ISP's (Comcast) are starting to jerk their customers around for being bandwidth hogs and VOIP service does chew up bandwidth.
My friends have Vonage and it requires either 30 or 90K for an 8K voice call! (that's stupid) How much bw does your service require?
I'm looking to switch back to Embarq for a land line and a VOIP service for LD calls. Your company looks promising.

said by TeleBlendBL :Ok guys, valid questions there. I've collected them all and will either post to the board or if they are customers specific I'll PM that poster shortly. Would you please get an answer to my question on page 1 of this thread? I am not getting the same exact service for the same price as I got with SR (as TB advertises).
Thanks. |

said by bigjohn :While the 'relationship' between TB and Sherwood and SR may be suspect, bringing in tort lawyers and government regulation to VOIP is only going to cost EVERYONE a ton of money, and stifle the inovation that we've been enjoying all these years. The lawyers will collect the fees, the govenrment will "solve the problem" with a ton of regulation that will make VoIP cost more than POTS... Government and their whores, Umm, I mean Lawyers  are never the answer. They've never 'fixed' anything... We took a gamble on something that probably sounded 'too good to be true' to a lot of us. now we have to live with it, accept responsibility that we took a little gamble, and move on to the next... i agree 110% with everything you said. i'm not looking for regulation, i'm looking for accountability for the implosion of SR and subsequent failures of TB. it all rests on a few people, the fogg-frog-man and captain hook.

said by Waitwatch :said by NumberStruck :said by TeleBlendBL : If you feel that there are some outstanding questions that require only basic info and should be responded to, let me know what those are and I'll track them down. Here's a question for SunRocketBL that requires "only basic info": I was in the middle of my SR annual plan. In order to keep my numbers, I paid TB for the first month of service. So, I have now paid TWICE for the same numbers. When will I be able to receive incoming calls on either number? Also paid for service over 2 weeks ago, except we haven't had a dial tone for incoming or outgoing for 2 weeks and the CSR says Teleblend doesn't have an engineer that knows how to fix the current problem, or even to swap out another box we have here at the house. One more time, people: (Wire) Fraud. File a complaint with your state AG.
