| scooby's link explains their 30 day policy, though it is my understanding they are not currently able to add new subscribers due to noncompliance with the FCC mandate on E911.

Not sure where you got that info. I just went all the way through their signup process stopping just short of making payment and had no issues.
However, it does look like they have removed some area codes, probably to comply to where they can offer E911 access. But I really do not think they have stopped taking order all together. No provider would do that.

| Re: [VoicePulse] Trial available? Well their options are to either be in compliance (which they flat out said in their press release they aren't even trying to be) or stop activating new lines.
Now it could be they have some areas covered, but their press release didn't indicate that.

4 edits | Re: [VoicePulse] Trial available? I also attempted the sign-up screens as an experiment (I'm already a VoicePulse customer), and get the following:
--------------------------------
VoicePulse does not currently offer E911 service for your address. Due to the FCC E911 Order, we are unable to allow you to continue placing your order with us until we offer E911 service for your address.
After closing your browser window, your order information will be lost and must be entered again if you wish to place an order in the future.
We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and our representatives are available for any questions or comments you may have at (732) 339-5100 M-F 9am-7pm EST.
--------------------------------
What I did is pick a Northridge, CA phone number, and enter my Northridge, CA address in the Emergency Service Address in every multiple way I could think of, to see if it would take. Nothing took. Northridge is part of the City of Los Angeles, which has a fairly up-to-date 911 system. So if VoicePulse can't sign-up customers in the nation's second largest city then whom can they sign up? My guess is nobody right now, from what has been discussed. I don't think this bodes well for VoIP companies that are relying on customer growth. If they can't grow their businesses, they could end up out of business.
I then tried to "sign up" with Broadvoice. I have their BYOD Lite Plan, in which they also provide no type of 911 service, but have now tacked-on an additional $1 monthly charge for 911. With Broadvoice I can go through the whole process of signing up, but I stopped at the last step before I submitted the credit card transaction. So is Broadvoice "living dangerously," still selling their service even though E911 isn't available? | |
