Re: Beware: Joiphone

said by RockyBB See Profile :

They have to pay to terminate all of your calls. Let's say they pay their underlying provider 1¢/minute to terminate traffic. 4,000 minutes (a full month at your rate) at 1¢/minute is $40.
IMHO, the company should not claim the service is UNLIMITED. The word UNLIMITED litterally means NO LIMITS! Regardless how much the VoSP pays to terminate the calls, the company should not put any limit when it claims the service is UNLIMITED. Have you heard of AT&T and/or other PSTN companies do this? I don't think so. Based on your explanation, the VoSP companies should increase their rate if they want to be in business to provide for UNLIMITED services to compensate for the lost or simply stop advertising with the UNLIMITED services. Otherwise, this practice of services is not fair to the end consumers regardless what your math explanation shown above.

 I agree with Mazilo.... UNLIMITED is just that.
I just looked over the terms of service, and they are very vauge. At any time they could determine that anything over 200 minutes a month is excessive residential use, and could start charging people. Sorry.... but not for me.
Enough already with the bait and switch or hidden meanings.
Joiphone is in the wrong. Sorry.

But hey... thats my 2 cents.
