I wanted to leave a note about VoipYourLife because of their excellent customer service. I signed up for the service while living abroad so that I could keep a US based number. Based on other reviews, I picked this company. Within hours of signing up for the account, they noticed what appeared to be fraudulent activity coming from my account (US number in use from a foreign IP), and disabled me. Why is this a good thing? Because it means they are looking out for their customers and their credit cards. I called their tech support line and in less than a minute got a polite and helpful man on the line. He directed me to their customer support people, and again I got a polite and helpful woman on the line. She explained the situation, how I could resolve it (fax them proof that I was who I said I was), and was interrupted by her supervisor, who spoke to me personally, re-enabled my account, and politely answered some questions about number portability. Total time to resolve the situation: 6 minutes. In a world where good customer service is getting someone on the line after 30 minutes of hold music and having a rep who cant deviate from a script, this was a huge surprise. I highly recommend VoipYourLife to anyone else who is considering them as a VoIP provider. So far: The call quality has been good. They can port in numbers from cell and landline providers. The customer service is great. They don't lock you to a single device. They support softphones.

have used them now 2+ yrs, up front setup was easy, but needed to work with Verizon FiOS and VoIPYourLife to get the quality of service correct and work out kinks in the FiOS service. Every now and then you get an echo on the lines. Most notable during heavy network traffic. Also telephone voice can be a problem and that certain voice will generate digit sounds in the ear piece. Mine sits behind the actiontec router, opened ports directly to it, sealed all other routes off and have had no issues. Have the router and VoIPYourLife box connected to a 10 hour back up battery system to match the Verizon FiOS backup system. Electricity goes out, I have a phone for 10 hours. If it is longer, a simple log into the internet (cell on a laptop) and forward all calls to the cell phone. Short money for the quality. I have only called CS now 3 times in the past 30-33 months.

Excellent, responsive customer service, able to handle my out-of-the-ordinary requests nicely. Minimal wait times. Quality of calls good to very good. I am a BYOD running my own asterisk on macosx with two lines.

Only one week into service with no issues. Set-up was easy, but not obvious. I chose to do on-line and only call if I was stuck. There is a set-up wizard for the hardware they support, but the only way to find it was through the user forum. Once there, it was a no-brainer. Very satisfied.

Prior to signing up I did a lot of research on VoipYourLife and have seen good reviews on other sites as well.

This service has been great. They were not quite correct on a question I asked of them. I wanted to use a phone on a wireless network where I did not have access to the router. The correct solution was a wireless bridge, not what their C.S. told me to use. Other than that, they are very responsive to questions and I haven't had a problem with the service. I have recommended them to others. For low volume calling, this is a very economical solution.

I'm in Canada, and have been a VYL subscriber for 1.5 years... I'm very happy with their service. Our initial connection was problem free and call quality was great... Since our initial sign up we've had occasional bouts of less than optimal call quality, and a simple call to VYL's tech support solved all concerns promptly... I would highly recommend this VOIP provider

I have used the service for months now. the quality is very good and network reliability has not been an issue at all. I don't use all of the features, but have no complaints about the ones I use. it wouldn't break my heart to spend a little less each month, but the old saying is true that you get what you pay for. Customer service is US-based and the reps actually know how to answer my questions. I haven't tried other providers, mostly because of the reviews I read on the internet from actual users. I picked voip your life because of the good reviews I found on and the fact that I didn't have to sign a contract. bottom line--this service has been great for me and I recommend to anyone reading that they give it a try.

Outstanding no frills VoIP service. Ordering was smooth, transition from Sunrocket was easy and fast. line quality is outstanding...much better than what I had with Sunrocket which I was also very pleased with. It is the only VOIP service I've had that has worked with my old fax machine without a hitch. I've not had a network outage since I've had the service. I've had Vonage, Comcast and Sunrocket and the reliability of VoIP Your Life is unparalleled with any other VoIP service I've had. My only gripe about VYL is the feature set is very limited compared to its competitors. We run a small business out of the home and with our previous provider we were able to use the virtual number to go to a separate voice mail for all business calls. This is not available with VYL. The virtual number goes to the same voice mail as the primary number. The member web site is very vanilla. Looks like it hasn't gone through a redesign in many years. It appears very antiquated especially if you are used to Sunrocket or Vonage member sites. Though this may be changing since the home page was recently updated. With that said, the UI is still functional and very easy to use. There is also no network outage forwarding...but they have proven that you don't need it. You will find better feature set for the price elsewhere, but if you are just looking for rock solid reliability, I would definitely recommend VYL.
