[VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls on N2 in VOIP Tech Chat http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r18889883 en Wed, 09 Dec 2009 07:49:07 EDT Wed, 09 Dec 2009 07:49:07 EDT Re: [VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls o http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19019467 christcorp : When I first got voicestick, I called them specifically about their next to nothing plan vs the $9.95 400 minute plan. At the time I signed up, minutes for outgoing was $0.02 with free incoming. Now, not being the person who believes in getting something for nothing, I planned on making outgoing calls also and NOT using it as a free number for inbound. I specifically asked them however how they could charge $10 for 400 minutes, when at $0.02 a minute, the same price would get you 500 minutes and ALL TAXES AND FEES are included in the price. The lady giggled and said;

"Yes, we know that. But some people asked for a limited minute plan so they could have a regular bill and not have to worry about "Refilling" the account. If they can't read and figure out that the N2N plan is a better deal, then that is their fault".

I agree with her 100%. Even at $0.02 for outgoing and $0.011 for incoming, the N2N is still a better plan that the 400 minute plan. Taxes and fees are already included and you get about the same amount of minutes without all the hassles. Even under the old plan, the N2N plan was a better deal.

Anyway, I still like voicestick. Most of the time they are up and running and sound great. The E911 works. It's a great second line in case my primary line; (Packet8); goes down. "Which has only happened 5 times in 2 years for a very short period of time". I highly recommend them. Especially for a 2nd line or backup. I NEVER choose 2 lines with the same provider. It doesn't save you money, and if they go down, so do both lines. Later...

mike - i do agree that the n2n plan people should not complain but for the $9.95 400 min they should include incoming otherwise its not worth it.... $9.95 ~ $12 with e911 fee, that much money would give you 666 minutes on the n2n plan.... which is why I went with the n2n plan (no satanistic jokes please :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19017858 Wed, 05 Sep 2007 19:24:15 EDT Re: Voicestick must have purchased some incoming minutes! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19017648 redshift : Isn't that 1.1c/min not 11c/min?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19017648 Wed, 05 Sep 2007 18:55:16 EDT Re: Voicestick must have purchased some incoming minutes! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19017290 christcorp : To look at it realistically, I'm sure that there were a lot of people using Voicestick basically as an incoming line only. So, they throw on 1000+ minutes a month incoming on it in a month, with the next 2 nothing plan, and voicestick makes $0.00 a month on the service. That doesn't seem quite right.

They do offer regular monthly packages just like the majority of voip providers where they have a "Pseudo" unlimited package for incoming or outgoing. But, as a backup line or 2nd line for my occasional use, voicestick suits my needs perfectly. They make some money off of me each month and I have a second line to use. I can't fault voicestick at all for not wanting to give away a "FREE" voip line every month. Granted, you might have actually used outgoing and paid for service. There are however a lot of people who only used it as an incoming line for free. Nothing wrong with charging for incoming. Especially at $0.11 a minute. Later...

Yeah, the incoming call charges suck... I would rather they charged 2 cents or even 2.5 cents instead of 1.18 but unlimited incoming.
I was very positive towards VoiceStick before they started billing incoming. I expect notice from any legitimate vendor before such a change. I tried to make contact many times by email, phone and by direct contact. I never got a single informative answer. My regular incoming on that line would bill out @ well over $10/mo. I would use the line if they offered U/L incoming for around $6/mo or $10/mo including a bucket of outgoing. Last week I informed contacts to use another incoming option. I'll still use VoiceStick where they make economic sense. They already lost my incoming. Incoming is not as easy or fast to move. If they raise the price of outgoing, my next outbound call will reflect the change.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19017237 Wed, 05 Sep 2007 17:41:31 EDT Re: Voicestick must have purchased some incoming minutes! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19012131 jeffnyc : Yeah, the incoming call charges suck...

Those providers who we all considered "cheap" (which I define as "beneath inexpensive") are either disappearing or revising their pricing plans (e.g., VoiceStick). On the other side of the equation we are seeing either temporary reductions in pricing (or "special offers") from some providers trying to attract ex-SR customers --- or permanent reductions such as AxVoice which just reduced their unlimited US/Canada Plan to $18.99 per month, including a free virtual number.

I will be following all of the VoIP offerings closely with great interest, curious to see how it all shakes out in about 12 to 18 months from now. Who will be left standing and what will the pricing structure (and included features) be in 2009? And will only the strong survive? --- Vonage, and the PSTN-VoIP offerings. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18925628 Wed, 22 Aug 2007 10:38:18 EDT Re: Voicestick must have purchased some incoming minutes! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18925363 celtic :

voicestick has an unlimited international plan for 24.99/month. That sounds like a competitive price, so I don't see how voicestick is only good for low-usage.
Mid usage is a better description. I don't need an international plan or a $19.95 plan. We all have cellular. I liked the Sunrocket $199/yr plan but no longer think paying a VoIP provider in advance is a good policy. I expected to pay Voicestick between $3 and $10 per month. I would pay a fixed $10 per month for unlimited incoming and a bucket of outbound. I may just move to the next cell plan and be done with this mess.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18925363 Wed, 22 Aug 2007 10:00:23 EDT Re: Voicestick must have purchased some incoming minutes! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18925138 anon : voicestick has an unlimited international plan for 24.99/month.

No reply yet addressing the issue.

I just noticed their limited plan which I think was $9.95/mo is no longer on VoiceStick web page.

I like VoiceStick and would like to continue to use them. I have not yet made changes and it looks like my current VoiceStick usage would bill out at over $20/month. Yesterdays incoming would bill out at $45/mo. These same calls moved to other current plans would cost less than $5/mo. I can shift outbound on the fly but once I change incoming, there is no reason to return. If VoiceStick wants to stay in the running for higher use accounts they need to act fast. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18924967 Wed, 22 Aug 2007 08:40:36 EDT Re: [VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls o http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18924237 stephencole :

While I am not happy about them charging for incoming calls my biggest gripes with relation to the implementation are:
1. Double charges for i2bridge calls.
2. Incoming call rate charged for calls that go to voicemail. So even if you don't answer amd the call is redirected to your voicemail, you are still be charged for that caller leaving u a message.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18912771 Mon, 20 Aug 2007 15:08:55 EDT Re: [VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls o http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18912648 mojojojo : WoW, I am bummed to read this, and I just checked my account and am being charged for incoming. I signed up with VS after reading much on this forum, finding out my SR was about to go out. Which luckily I was at the end of my 2nd year with SR. So I didn't lose anytime with them and actually got 10 days free service at the end since my account was supposed to expire 7/25...But back to VS and their shady middle of the night rate change, what a shame. I was just telling a friend about how cool it was they had free incoming. Now after my SR number was finally ported to VS, they start charging for incoming with NO NOTICE. Even though its a fair price I will just let my account run out, cause who knows whats next...

I called after reading this thread and the VoiceStick IVR offered that email address. I just checked and it still does. Their MX record lists this address and their i2telecom.com, both without a backup server. I just tried dnsstuff.com and got a "no response" for the above and "Got an unknown RCPT TO response: 551 user does not exist" to CS. & S. @i2telecom.com.

Voicestick has performed well for me. This timing is bad because I just started using them as a main number and I have better active options than using their new plan for my expected volume. They have the choice of what to charge and I the choice to use another provider. I rate every vendor on several issues. I would expect a simple notice prior to the change and another post here shows they are probably in violation of their own terms. I'm not fighting this, just revising my opinion of them.

After SunRockets whatever, I had decided to use VS for around a third of my outgoing, leave a $10 minimum and deposit at least $5 per month. I thought providers received revenue from incoming calls. If their incoming rate was about half, I probable would stick with my plan. Now I will just re-direct much of my inbound and watch. I do hope they are successful and adjust this plan or offer a reasonable unlimited inbound. They appear to be a small operation so I will cut some slack.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18911411 Mon, 20 Aug 2007 11:25:51 EDT Re: [VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls o http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18910987 N9MD :

Been with VS almost 1 month from SR and the cost has been a total of $1.00.

does the VS 400 USA and Canada $9.99 per month include free incoming calls if so looks like it would be best to upgrade to it as i usally add $10 a month anyway.
Good point. The N2N actually worked out to be cheaper than the $9.99 plan. The 9.99 has about a $2 (maybe a little less) 911 fee. To spend $10 or even $12 with the N2N plan thats a lot more minutes. The $9.99 plan would need to include incoming minutes to make it worth it.

I know I didnt answer your question but there is no info on the site. As a matter of fact they still have the 2 cents a minute rate posted for excess minutes over the 400 which I do not think is correct.

Another strange thing is that my friend has an Atlanta number (where they are based) and he has a lot of no charge calls in his call history ???]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18901310 Sat, 18 Aug 2007 15:15:00 EDT Re: [VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls o http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18901123 gimp55 : does the VS 400 USA and Canada $9.99 per month include free incoming calls if so looks like it would be best to upgrade to it as i usally add $10 a month anyway. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18901123 Sat, 18 Aug 2007 14:35:15 EDT Re: [VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls o http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18900381 jeffnyc :

Yeah, that is messed up. When they first did the upgrade a quirk was that they charged you to check Voicemail. I am hoping this is a quirk of their implementation of incoming call charges.

I all of us reading this forum should email them to complain about being charged for the double leg.... if they get enough complaints maybe they will fix it... and I hardly use i2bridge.

They clearly violated there own TOS by not giving a notice.

And if they are going to charge for incoming to makes sure they recover a minimum amount per month from N2N plans, then they should now allow calls to 1-800 numbers of calling cards and not charge airtime for that. It's not fair when they don't have customer support folks to look at why outbound calling to some international destination does not work when calling direcly, while at the same time not letting those folks use a calling card to call that same destination. In my opinion that is restricting full use of what at the end of the day is a "phone line".]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18893903 Fri, 17 Aug 2007 11:42:37 EDT Re: [VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls o http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18893677 voip_user : Yes Voicestick's N2N plan is good and they are really ahead of their competition by a mile in terms of overall cost. Now that things have changed and they are billing for incoming calls that margin of cost advantage has reduced

They may very well still be the cheapest but the margin has reduced. With free incoming calls it was very easy to overlook some of their shortcomings (reliability, not able to call certain 800 numbers for conference calls, issues accessing VM, poor customer service etc ..). Now things will be different.

Let me give an example earlier we could make 1200 minutes calls for $15, now it would be 600 outgoing minutes and 600 incoming minutes. There are lot of operators (like VT) who charge about the same (VT has $15 for 500 minute plan)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18893677 Fri, 17 Aug 2007 11:13:53 EDT Re: [VoiceStick] Is VoiceStick now charging for incoming calls o http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18893395 voiplover : I just want to point out that for us, every penny that we have given Voicestick so far has been worth it.

Anybody else see such charges. I believe their biggest advantage over other similar providers was free unimited incoming calls but looks like that is changing. Time to evaluate if it is worth staying with them after this.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18889883 Thu, 16 Aug 2007 20:13:08 EDT
