Vonage offers customers a fax line for $10/month extra. Other than the stated purpose, is there any difference in the service for a fax line that would prevent it from being used as a second voice line in a pinch? |

I was told by tech support that you can make outgoing calls on the Fax line; but could not receive incoming calls. |

That's odd. I wonder how they know that the incoming call is, or is not, a fax? |

You can use the fax line for voice, both in and out going.
It is striped of most all features however (no call waiting, no voice mail...) |

Whether it can or cannot be used for voice please don't forget that with a fax line you only get 240 minutes of outgoing data caling.
I was told by the tech that it could not be used for voice. I believe you guys since you are probably more experienced.. hehe

240? You sure about that? My play book calls for 500. |

ah, sorry about that. It is 500 business, 250 residential outgoing. Both are unlimited incoming.
I was thinking the business account. |
