Re: CallVantage going bye-bye?

said by en102:

Do I see a problem with this 'new' VoIP service... YES!

Call Vantage VoIP = $25/month
Uverse VoIP = $40/month

Triple play:
Uverse VoIP + U300 + Internet 1.5/1Mbps = $134/month + $5 /month to upgrade to 3/1Mbps = $139/month + fees
Total: $139/month + fees

Currently, I have:
POTS Unlimited $39.99/month + $4.95 Canada + tax/fees = $57/month
DirecTV plus package = $61 after fees (3 sets)
DSL Extreme Pro = $ 26.88 after fee/taxes
Total = 144.88

No _real_ savings here
In my opinion, bundles only make sense if there is an obvious savings or a huge difference in performance/capabilities. $5 a month in savings isnt going to make me switch providers and sign a contract, thats for sure! I would need to see upwards of $30 per month (at least) savings before I considered going through the hassle of making a change to multiple services.

I agree... the bad part is that you are forced to bundle to get this VoIP.. ie. it doesn't come without IPTV.
What I currently have IS unbundled, and only $5 more... assuming that there are no taxes/fees on Uverse service.
The $144/month is AFTER all taxes/fees. Uverse $134 + $5 Pro upgrade is BEFORE any taxes/fees.
