Vonage does not respond to email/web requests for customer service. The quality of the service is ok; some weird things happen now & then that are annoyances but not usually serious. Getting customer service to respond has been the biggest problem. After several months, they still haven't gotten my number transferred.

I have only had the VOIP up and running for 2 days do far. All has been great. Calls sound almost as clear on a land line. Sometimes at the internet phone side you may hear a faint delay. I had to call customer service 2 times (india) but they did pick up after about 2minutes. Calls were placed at about 8 pm so that might have helped. My problem was my old analog phone I pulled from the basement was not working. Other than that a super easy installation. Everything seems to work and sound great so far. I would refer a friend to this service. Good luck to all...

I have had Vonage for over two years. ISP is Comcast. The vonage service is very reliable. I cant remember my phone service being down in the last 6 months. I have a Vonage 800 number so my traveling wife can call me easily it has been great. Voange is my only home phone but I do have a cell. My wife and kids who don't know anything about VOIP thinks everything is great. Believe me my family would not put up with no dial tone. They would demand that I change to QWEST if we had service issues but we have none. My wife worked on a four month project in Ohio I got a virtual number through Vonage and she called me everyday by placing a local call in OHIO. Her co workers could not believe that she could pick up a phone in OHIO and place a local call to me in Seattle but she did and it worked great.

The only issue I have with Vonage is they do not have the call block feature like SUNROCKET does. I want that feature so I can place some numbers on a do not accept call list. I have even considered moving to SUNROCKET to get that feature but I worry that the service will not be as stable as Vonage has been for me.

The other thing I should mention is this. I have one of the older motorola vonage box's that I received when I orderd my account in NOV 2003. I place the motorola box as the first device off my cable modem. When I plugged the motorola box in to my Linksys I had sound issues on my calls. Once I plugged the motorola box straight in to the cable modem all was good with sound quality on the calls. I really recomend Vonage it has saved me hundreds of dollars in toll calls and tax's ect. on my phone bill. I used to get a QWEST bill for 150 a month because my wife used so much LD now my phone bill is always around 30 bucks because I have unlimited plus a 800 number.

GO Vonage but you better get call reject call blocking or I may move to SUNROCKET.

You get your money's worth for such a low price... With Vonage, you are definitely getting a great deal. I couldn't believe how much money I save with this VoIP. Thanks to Vonage and I strongly recommend getting VONAGE to those people out there who are getting a broadband service.

After two months of service constantly and consistantly going out and no one ever answering customer service I cancelled. Vonage responded by refusing to allow me to cancel and by making eight unauthorized charges on my credit card. I had to report my card as lost and get a new one to quit Vonage. Vonage is a complete fraud.

Wow, I mean talk about horrible connections. My internet is solid, I run services off it and have almost zero downtime but Vonage is always having issues. Conversations are one-way, much like a walkie-talkie or old analogue cell phones. We miss up to 65% of our phone calls, completely unexplained, just never get a ring. When we do decide to make use of features such as call forwarding they mess up horribly.

Service is great when everything is operational. Most of the time it is operational so far. It is a great money saver. Customer service is either good or bad depending on your luck when contacting them for question or concerns.

Reviewers Comments:

The worst customer service in Pakistan (or India).

Reviewers Comments:

They never take responsibility for their QOS issues. The finger of blame is always pointed to the ISP. Where as this may be true some of the time, I checked their SIP servers for latency via test tools. When my VOIP service had issues with latency they were synonymous with their Sip server. They need to spend more money on their network and less on marketing. Take care of the customers you have VONAGE.

Customer Service is horrible, I waited on average 30-45 minutes to talk with someone.  Sound quality is up and down -- not reliable.

I'm fed up with Vonage after 5 months of service.  I'm in upstate New York and have experienced several outages due to Vonage.  There are times when I get a dial tone but then here a recording that all circuits are busy, or a fast busy signal or another recording that there is a known issue and they (Vonage) are working to fix it.  A very sly practice of Vonage is when there is a known outage you won't know about it unless you log into your account on their webpage.  There is no front page announcement to tell everyone there is an outage.  Obviously this would be corporate suicide because Vonage has constant outages.  The voice quality is severely lacking, people whom I talk to on the phone tell me they here beeping which I cannot here, echo's and choppy quality.

I thought that Vonage was really my only choice but after doing some research I can see now that there are TONS of alternatives and quite a few with much better ratings and features offered than Vonage.  Vonage may have the money into their marketing campaign but they had better invest in better service or they will lose their customers to the competition.

Testing various VoIP services, vonage is the worst so far. Great value for the price but so far ATT CallVantage has best sound quality and up time. So far I would recommend ATT CallVantage.

I was concerned about how it would affect my Tivo and alarm system but everything worked fine right out of the box. I wired a Linksys PAP2 in place of my main phone line and the whole house is now hard wired with the Vonage service. Without broadband saver, I had a disconnect while up loading several large files. I turned on the broadband saver to help minimize the problem but my Tivo couldn't dial out with it on. I set up Tivo to dial *99 before it dials out which turns off the broadband saver and now Tivo works fine. I haven't tried it with the alarm system yet. All in all, I'm very happy. It may not work for everyone but it's worth trying.

Hi, we are Vonage and are proud to announce we are an American company based right here in Edison, NJ. Don't mind the fact that we refuse to hire our own. We prefer to send our good earned cash to India so they can live our dream, the American dream. The truth of the matter is, unlike Americans who need jobs too, Indians will work a 16 hour day for a bowl of rice and a glass of milk while the greedy poor Americans looking for a job insist on minimum wage. Thank you for using Vonage.
