Does anyone here use Vonage?
What do you think of it?
With the ever increasing price of gas, the $24.99 a month for unlimited long distance sounds a heck of a lot better than the $64.99 I pay now.

1. Yep.
At work. So far, so good. Cut the phone bill in half.

4. Yes, but installation was a little harder than I thought.
And I'm currently out of commission because I unplugged some cables and haven't figured out how to put it back together.

8. I've had Vonage for about a year. It's been just great. I don't notice
any difference from my old landline other than the caller privacy service I used to have. Another thing might be to look into Sunrocket, they've been having a deal for 2 years of service for 199. That makes your monthly bill about 8 bucks a month. I've been thinking of trying it and saving a few more dollars than what I already save with Vonage.

10. We have Four Lines on Vonage and Love It. Skype not as
convenient. Vonage just WORKS. We've noticed no difference between it and MCI/ATT from before. I love the fact that I can manage it and get mt vmail online.

We also use Skype for computer to computer telcom and videocon. It's OK - not as good a quality as the Vonage and not nearly as convenient.

11. Yes - for the past two years.
No problems whatsoever - and check this out. You can have more than one number in more than one area code. I have a number with the area code where my mom lives, so when she calls me, it's local for her. No long distance charge.
