I just noticed this today in my call logs

8/16/2007 6:05:33 PM INCOMING INBOUND RATE 1 0.01

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.
How about numbers within VS network calling each other?

 I still consider the N2N plan as a gift from them.
They owe me nothing and I know that they need to make about $5/month to break even. I've enjoyed the free incoming but expected this to happen a while ago. Without a monthly min I'm going to stay around. It has been a good backup and is an excellent plan for those with broadband and just a cell phone.

But why not give notice? What is next? If I didn't see it here I might not have enough on deposit to cover the increased billing. Would they cut me off without notice? I'll wait for comment from VoiceStick and hope it comes soon.

Portsmouth, NH		 Yes, you are right. Notice would have been the right thing.
My guess is that we will see that soon. I also would not have know if I wasn't reading it here.

I am pretty sure all VS to VS are still free.

Also, not that some of you may consider this significant but I believe incoming calls are being charged at $0.012 not $0.01, a 5 min incoming call costs 6 cents.
