More info?)
Broadvoice doesn't service my area so I looked into other options. I
came close to signing up for Vonage but didn't when they wanted to
charge me an activation fee plus a shipping fee for the equipment. I
researched online and came across Sunrocket.
Sunrocket's package included:
·No Activation Fees, sign up fees, hidden fees or even shipping fees
to send the equipment.
·Free Uniden 2.4 Ghz phone system (two phones) - we needed this
since our wireless phones were dead.
·Two phone lines (one is a virtual number)
·Unlimited Long Distance to US and Canada
·$3 per month allowance for international calls - plus their
international rates are really reasonable.
·Two directory assistance calls included each month.
·Voicemail and all the phone features you need (call waiting, call id,
fowarding, blocking, etc).
·No cancellation fees.
So far the service has been outstanding! I swear it sounds better than
my former telco (which by the way I found great pleasure in "firing").
I have had no problems with outages whatsoever. If you pay the annual
in advance, it comes out to $16.58 per month for unlimited US
(including Hawaii and Alaska) and Canada calls. No taxes - that's the
bottom line price.
By the way, the Uniden phones are by far the best phones I have ever
owned. The clarity and features are amazing! I had previously bought
Northwestern Bell 2.4ghz system -- it was terrible, full of static and
you could not hear the caller over the background hiss. I will only
buy Unidens from now on.
In order to get the free Uniden phones, you have to supply a coupon
code. If you can't find a code, you can use the following code when
signing up to get the phones - 7272140588. After entering the code,
the page it takes you to should show a picture of the Uniden phones.
Hope this info helps!
