PhoneDog.com Expert Review REVIEW - We don’t recommend that businesses switch to VoIP phone service. Service reliability and call clarity don’t compare the high standards of traditional phone service at this time. This plan includes 1500 domestic minutes for one monthly fee. Vonage is certainly the most well known VoIP provider due to the overwhelming amount of advertising found online, on TV, and everywhere else. CUSTOMER SERVICE - We recommend reading the USER REVIEWS for more information on this topic. ONLINE ACCOUNT - Vonage has a very easy to use and useful account management site for all customers, which allow you to view recent calls, retrieve and forward voicemails and many other unique features. BILLING INFORMATION - Vonage only offers online billing. Your credit card is charged automatically on a monthly basis. Your billing cycle starts when your telephone number is assigned to you and your voicemail account is created. TAXES AND FEES - Vonage charges a 3% Federal Excise Tax on all service charges. Applicable sales tax is charged on service and equipment. Voange also charges a Regulatory Recovery Fee of $1.50 per phone number in your account. This is a fee that Vonage charges its customers to recover required costs of Federal and State Universal Service Funds as well as other related. ADDITIONAL FEATURES - Vonage offers wide array of additional features and services such as... Virtual Phone Numbers - Secondary numbers from any available area code for your primary Vonage line. Toll Free Plus - Have your own toll free number for only $4.99 per month. 100 incoming minutes included. Fax Service - Dedicated fax lines for only $9.99 per month.

VoIP - Did you know?

VoIP services are not yet as reliable and clear as traditional phone systems. If you have a high-speed internet connection with fast upload (256k) and download speeds, then you are likely to be satisfied with VoIP phone service.

While VoIP phone service is an excellent option for some people, we don't feel it is ready to replace most residential or business phones services.
