Cheapest Internet and Phone Service

July 30th, 2010

Do you still have landline phone service? Still stuck on

dial-up Internet service because you think it’s cheaper than

broadband? What if I said you can essentially get unlimited

local plus long distance phone service and broadband

Internet for the same price or less than what you’re paying

for those so called cheaper services?

Ask yourself this: How much am I paying just for local phone

service? Are you including all of the taxes fees and sir

charges? If so, you’re probably paying fairly close to 50

dollars a month just in local phone service charges. Is it

fair to say you pay at least 10 dollars a month in long

distance including fees?

Either way you cut it, if you are paying more than 60

dollars for phone service each month you’re getting ripped

off even if you think you’re getting a pretty good deal. How

about dial-up ISP? Do you have one of those super cheap

dial-up Internet providers that only charge around 10

dollars a month for ISP? Good deal right? Wrong!

Of course I can’t sit here and figure each persons monthly

billing, but most of you reading this who have landline

phone service, make long distance phone calls either by

calling card, or a long distance plan, and use dial-up

Internet service are likely paying at least 70 dollars or

more per month between the three services.

What would you do if you could get high speed Internet, plus

unlimited local plus long distance calling for that same 70

dollars? Would you just nod wisely and still keep your

landline phone service and slow dial-up Internet? Would you

keep swearing by the same cheap calling cards for long

distance?

Did you know that most people in the U.S. can get broadband

Internet either by cable or DSL for less than 50 dollars a

month? Did you know that by having that broadband Internet

service you can take advantage of unlimited local and long

distance phone service for less than 20 dollars per month?

In effect, you could be getting super fast Internet

connections and unlimited calling for the same price, and

often times less than what you are paying for service right

now. Even if it averages out to be about the same price,

you’re still getting better service for the same amount of

money!

Of course, more often than not, the combination of broadband

Internet, and broadband phone service is cheaper than the

cost of landline phone service plus the cost of dial-up.

Sure, the price of broadband Internet alone is going to cost

more than dial-up, but factor in the savings with broadband

phone service and the combination of the two are going to be

much cheaper than landline phone service plus dial-up.

Quite literally, the cheapest phone service or cheapest

Internet service is going to be broadband Internet like DSL

or cable broadband plus broadband telephone service. Try as

you might, you just cannot get a better deal than that.

You’ve always wanted to “stick it” to your phone company,

and modern technology has finally provided you a way to do

just that.

Internet Phone Service Calling For Less

July 29th, 2010

Broadband providers can now offer internet phone service through VOIP technology. By enabling users to take advantage of their existing broadband connection to make and receive cheap phone calls, VOIP has become a real money saver for both residential and business customers alike. The competition in the communication field has been greatly increased with the advent of voip technology offered by the broadband providers. The buyer reaps all the rewards of reduced costs and more features caused by this competitive market. A little research into finding the best broadband provider to fit your needs can go a long way in terms of satisfaction and money saving benefits.

Probably the biggest name in broadband providers is Vonage.The marketing of Vonage has made it seem like they are the only voip broadband provider. Vonage provides standard services and less expensive monthly costs that most of the large landline and some of the other niche providers. Vonage friendly service, promotional rates and ease of installation is a good choice for customers who want to test the technology before committing. Vonage and other similar services are easy to install even if you are not a computer wizard.

For the more tech savvy consumers who are looking for the ultimate in price reduction and do not require some of the frills that come with many of the voice over IP services, there are bare-bones PC based communication options such as Skype, Google Talk, SIP and newcomer Magicjack. Google Talk and Skype are services which allow users to make PC to PC calls directly over the internet. This is commonly done using a headset or computer microphone and speakers, but it is also possible to purchase an adapter that allows users to use their existing cordless and corded phones. SIP activated devices allow communication between PCs without the monthly bill. You must be computer literate to connect the SIP devices, but the recognition and zero monthly cost are enough incentive for some users. Discuss your communication requirements with your office staff to establish a priority list complete with a budget figure prior to the your broadband providers web search. Reading an internet review is a great way to narrow down the choices.

Sunrocket Vs Packet8 – Cheap Annual Internet Phone Service Plans

July 28th, 2010

Sunrocket used to be the cheapest high-quality internet phone service provider, and also the only VoIP provider that offered an “annual” prepaid VoIP plan. In a bold effort to stay ahead in the VoIP price wars, competing VoIP provider Packet8 recently introduced an annual unlimited local and long distance VoIP service option at the same price. Whether Vonage will follow remains to be seen, but for now Sun Rocket and Packet 8 lead the pack in offering the cheapest, high quality internet phone service.

Sunrocket

At $199 per year (paid up front), Sunrocket unlimited local and long distance phone service works out to less than $17 per month. Sunrocket built their business on this “flat rate” pricing plan, and cost-conscious consumers love it. Sun Rocket internet phone service is one of the fastest-growing VoIP service providers in the United States, and also one of the “big three” VoIP providers (along with Vonage and Packet8) due to their top quality service and ultra-low annual pricing.

The Sun Rocket unlimited local and long distance plan includes calling within the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. With the annual subscription, you get several free popular calling features including voicemail, 3-way calling, call waiting, caller ID with name, call forwarding, distinctive rings, call return, speed dial, and more. The unlimited annual plan also provides you with $3.00 in free international calling credits per month, which can mean up to 100 free minutes of international calling, depending on where you call.

Sunrocket’s annual unlimited plan also comes with free E-911 service, two free directory assistance calls per month, and a free extra phone number (area code of your choice) that you can use for anything you like. Sun Rocket VoIP service is true “what you see is what you get” pricing. The $199 annual fee includes everything except any additional international calling charges you might incur. Unless you make a lot of international calls (in which case you should get the Sunrocket Sunspots Plan), you will not see another phone bill until the following year when it’s time for renewal.

Packet8

Packet8 has been known as a top quality VoIP provider for residential and small business telephone service for quite some time. They have always had great rates on unlimited local and long distance residential internet phone service ($19.99 a month), but have now gotten even better. Packet 8 recently implemented an annual pricing plan for unlimited local and long distance service. At $199 per year, their Freedom Unlimited Annual plan matches Sunrocket’s excellent price, but they don’t offer unlimited calling to Puerto Rico like Sunrocket does.

With the Packet 8 unlimited annual plan, you get more free calling features than Sunrocket offers. All the basics like voicemail, call waiting, caller id, call return, and call forwarding are covered; plus you get extras like voicemail to email, anonymous call blocking, and do not disturb, just to name a few. E-911 service costs an extra $1.99 per month, and additional phone numbers cost extra too. The $199 annual fee covers all calling within the US and Canada, and you won’t see any extra charges unless you make international calls. Packet8 also offers a video phone plan and a couple of business VoIP plans.

Both Packet8 and Sunrocket offer excellent customer service and technical support, and both internet phone service installations are easy and quick (anyone can do it – really!). You can use your existing phone with either service as long as it’s a touch-tone model, and both providers allow you to keep your existing phone number if you wish. As with all internet phone service, you must have broadband internet in order to use it.
