Pioneer 3.3C User Review

Cons: Separate bills for long distance and local service.

Summary: I am well pleased with Pioneer Telephone long distance and intrastate telephone service. The rates are as good as a prepaid calling card and it is easier to use.

Cons: -Hard to understand customer reps
-Online billing hard to access with Safari browser and online account difficult to access w/ created password.
-Charge 99 cents for a copy of mailed paper bill if bill is under $15.

Summary: I think the physical quality of the service is okay (voice/sound) but I think they are weak in the customer service area.

Cons: Possibly monthly fees to be added, but will not know until a couple of statements have arrived.

Summary: I've been looking for a Long Distance carrier that had competitive rates (less than 4c per minute), yet did NOT charge an automatic monthly fee. The other plan I had before "Global Communications" started off that way, but within the past year started adding additional fees monthly ... amounting to MORE than the Long Distance bill itself. Too soon to say on Pioneer if they will do the same.

Summary: I make very few long distance calls per month (avg 1-2) so this plan is very cost effective for my needs.

Cons: none

Summary: Phonedog.com was great at getting us the best priced long distance for the area we live in. We live in the country outside of a major metro area and don't have the greatest selection of LD carriers available. Our local carrier didn't provide us with as complete a listing of LD carriers as Phonedog did. Pioneer has great qualifty with no monthly fees we pay just for the minutes we use. Great job and we'll recommend Phonedog to everyone we know.

Thanks, Glen and Della

Cons: Do not take Discover Card which was my card of choice. Do not send monthly statements (not even to E-mail), at least not yet. Need to log in to web site to check account, usage, etc.

Summary: Only switched over 2 or 3 months ago, and have not used it much, so cannot really give an extensive review. So far seems OK. They did bill my credit card $10.00 to start with, and even though I have not used $10.00 worth yet, they never give me a credit. Someday, I guess I will be up to $10.00 in usage. Reason of not much use is we usually use cell phone for LD calls. Just needed this for a LD carrier to use as needed, for sending faxes, etc. and it fits the bill very well. Have not yet tried it for international calls.

Cons: Took almost two months to switch after i placed order, this was probably not Pioneer's fault, but my phone company, it took many calls to both ends and two months of very high long distance bills. As a result I switched everything to the regular phone company.

Summary: It would be very good and easy if the switch happened smoothly, in my case it did not, took a long time, and ATT charged my 30 $ to hand over my lines. Overall I would give it a very positive review, if switching was in fact easy.

Summary: We chose this particular program as it fit our company's needs and the cost was effective for what we need.

Cons: None that I can think of.

Summary: What more can I say? I recommend Pioneer to everyone that will sit still long enough to listen (when I come across something of value, I let others know).

Cons: none

Summary: I'm pleased with long distance service on my phone with Pioneer Tech
