A small gift to offset those new taxes. My bill just went up another $1.90 for a monthly total of $29.60/mo. More and more like ma bell.

I figured out how to dial that number in the UK. I said I had the wrong number and cheerio. I was charged 0.28 for a one minute call. What a ripoff. I have the unlimited plan too.
Then try putting in for a credit with that transaction # let us know if you get it. Am curious.

Already tried that. It says that the page is unavailable after I type everything in and to try later. Guess they dont want you to get credits
Oh well...only 28 cents.

Maybe this doesn't affect the rest of you, but unlimited calls to the UK & Ireland are a huge attraction to me. I'm glad to see Vonage is finally starting to become a bit more competitive, especially now that the choices in VoIP are growing (and improving). I wonder why Vonage hasn't updated their website to reflect this yet -- This is a major marketing point.

That would be because it is an 0845 (LCFA) number, and not a standard geographic number. Within the UK these numbers are charged at local rate whereever they are dialed from. However, it seems to cost a lot to call these from outside the UK with any provider. The same applies to 0870 (NCFA) numbers. There are some details here:

I was referring to the main page. Even on the page you listed, it says See details below," but you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, where they've intentionally camouflaged it in small light gray text on a white background.
