 | | Pretty good I have had Vonage (I still do) and now Sunrocket. I must say that Vonage has been rock solid.
Sunrocket has issues - annoying ones - like one time I tried to do a 3-way call. I called the first party, and did a flash hook, then I forgot the number I was going to call, so I flash hook again, and was not able to get back to the first party.
So I hung up the phone.
Whats amazing is that 10 minutes later, the first party WAS STILL ON THE PHONE WITH ME!!! Even though my phone was hung up. WEIRD!
And this morning I answered my Sunrocket phone... I could hear the other party but they could not hear me.
Sunrocket is still growing... and I'm ok with it, especially for the FREE router and phones.

| At least there is a dialtone... Rocketeers are quick to point out they have been meltdown, I mean upgrade, free for the most part since September. But there are a myriad of smaller little issues and outages that will really IMHO keep them from growing bigtime. They have a great feature set, when it works. They give you free phones, that you get to keep as a "reward" if you cancel the service. They now offer 15 month for $199, plus international allowances. One of the first things we learned in the restaurant business is to give away things to try to get people in the door when you really need them...
I would love to see what SR's retention is, and how many free phones/canceled accounts after a week or two they have.... | |

| on most systems, dialtone suggests that the phone's gonna work.
on SR, dialtone only means that the dialtone works.
it's just a tone. many times we have dialtone but calls still don't complete or arrive.

| | | | Re: At least there is a dialtone... LOL. That is so true. A dialtone just isn't a dialtone anymore!!!
And just now I was talking to someone for about 30 minutes (tech support call to someone else) and we came CLOSE to solving the problem and Sunrocket decided that I should get disconnected and get a BUSY tone. NICE!
Sunrocket is like a little kid. Little Johnny. He's not good at everything but he's trying. Go Johnny! You can do it!
Give it a year or two. | |
|
| | | I've been with them for a while now and can't complain too much. But I don't see the 15 month offer anywhere, is there a link?

| | | | | Re: At least there is a dialtone... That would figure. I found the same info on an Anandtech forum about 2 minutes ago.

| | No wonder Its little wonder when you have such a dedicated group of sunshine pumpers who have commandeered the VoIP forum of this site and use it to promote the company they have a vested interest in.

Fayetteville, GA | "Sunshine Pumper"? I haven't had a problem yet - guess that makes me a "sunshine pumper". Where do I go to sign up for my "vested interest"? | |

Their entire nationwide service could be down (like it has been several times in the past few months), and I'm sure your service would "never skip a beat."

| | Sunshine pumper please... Just because I have had very few problems here in minnesota doesnt mean im a pumper. Its cheap i have little issues, life is good and stop complaining if you have problems then leave the servace and not whine about them forever. Just like anything else in life its a choice. | |
