Customers Reviews

Here are some reviews of Vonage compiled:

ilikeme from dslreports.com,

I have had Vonage for about 4 years now and it has been great. Got locked on to the $9.99 unlimited for life plan, which comes to about $17 after taxes and fees. I have never had any trouble with it, even when taking it with me to the UK for a month.

1norcalman from voip-info.org,

I’ve been with Vonage for more than three years. I live primarily in Mexico and the sound quality and service is really quite good here using a DSL connection. The fact that when I am traveling I can take the adapter and use it pretty much universally is awesome.

Conclusion

Vonage can lower your monthly home phone bill pretty significantly, especially you make a lot of international calls. Vonage’s international plans are superb.
