Vonage It really was too good to last. Vonage is finally starting to behave like a phone
It really was too good to last. Vonage is finally starting to behave like a phone company. "Your rate increase is really a rate reduction," and "We have to charge these new fees because of the government, not because we make money off it." Next it'll be, "The children- what will happen to them if we don't charge you extra?"
As for Vonage service? Dropped calls, outright outages, erased voicemails with zero notice to include zapped outgoing greetings.
All this I have put up with, and even going so far as to buy my own cable modem, plugging techno-jiz into my router ports, etc. You know the drill, all those things no-one tells you about until AFTER you commit your telephone service to a new number. By the way, Vonage being "unable" to maintain my old phone number should have been the first red flag. Broken promise right up front should have told me something.
I don't mind pioneering, only as far as I know, I get dial tone from the competition every time I pick up one of their phones. Vonage can't make any such claim, and this price increase, couched as a rate reduction, is only adding insult to injury.
Looks like I'm soon to be moving on, and you know you'll think about it, too. The reliability is just not there, and the company apparently thinks we're all stupid.

• The language describing the 'regulatory charge' is a bit nebulous. After reading
• It's these charges, fees, and taxes which so infuritated me w/ Verizon and Sprint.
• All I have to say is if I start seing 1/3 or half of my billing going to the US Gov, then
• that would all make sense if the gov't charge went to the gov't... it doesn't ...
