Still not yet received my Vonage Voip box, but anxiously awaiting its arrival. In the meantime, I have been thinking about all possible scenarios that might provide hiccups.
I may be moving out of province (Canada) and will likely want to take my Vonage service and box with me. I think it's a pretty cool feature that you can retain the same phone number. However, I will be in another area code. Wouldn't my new neighbor in the new location have to call long distance from a landline then to call me on my old Vonage number?

Yes, that is correct. If the call to your old number is a long distance call from your current location, it will be a long distance call for your new neighbor. Have him also convert to Vonage, that way all calls will be free  |

You can change your primary number to your soon to come new area code. or you can set up a virtual number in that area code.
hope your box comes before you move. |

Vonage suggests getting a new "real" number in your new location and converting your old one to a virtual number. Your old friends can call in at local rates, ditto for people in your new area, and on the $30 plan you can call any of them at the same rate as much as you want. |

I've got 4 area codes currently. Only about 800 or so left to go LOL.
I am such a hot shot with 4 area codes. I feel so cool. I hope nobody has more than me yet or I will have to add more.  |
I think you should make it your goal to get a 212, that'd be the true test of area code status  |
