My wife has been bitching for a while now about how much we pay for phone services. Yesterday I dropped our seldom used cell phones to pay as you go and estimate saving $500 a year. This started her on her Vonage campaign again.
Vonage seems to have wildly varying reviews on it's service. Either it works perfectly, or it blows and it's impossible to cancel. So I'm reluctant to sign up for a 1yr commitment, even tho it's supposed to save us $800+ a year.
VoipYourLife and PhonePower seem to be betting much better reviews (avg 4 - 4.5 stars vs Vonage's 2.5) but I'm reluctant to go with a company I've never heard of before.
Does anyone here use VoIP or know someone who does?
We have a 2-line 5.8ghz cordless phone system. Would we be able to use this with any VoIP service, or would we be required to use an IP phone? The site's aren't clear, tho some say an adapter would be needed.
Thanks. My head spins when I try to sort all this stuff out.
