| [VoiceStick] Can't login to My Account - Can anyone else?
I'm registered and the service is working. Since yesterday morning I get "The information you have entered does not match our records." Last night and again this afternoon, I requested the password be sent but despite the web confirmation, it never arrived.
Anyone else able to login? |

| reply to cbrain [VoiceStick]Anyone else asked for account verification?
Thanks. I made another request for password then sent a service request from VoiceStick's website. This time the password arrived. It was the same account and password I had been using and it again failed. Later I got the below answer that my account needs verification. My account is over a year old and has always maintained a positive balance. To my knowledge their has not been any suspicious activity and VoiceStick didn't notify me in any way until I ask about the login problem. The last time I checked, about a week ago, I had a $5 balance and probably used less than $.75 since. Notice the terms below in bold(I added the bold). What if their charge is incorrect or due to an arbitrary change made without notice, possibly in violation of their own terms?
I hope this is a mistake and they just restore my login. I had planed to make an additional $10 deposit. I signed something similar(without the offensive wording in bold) prior to opening a VoicePulse Connect account. Based on all the VoiceStick changes without notice and the state of the VoIP business I don't think I'll sign. At least not without a change to that wording. Could VoiceStick be the provider P8 is moving on? If VoiceStick insists, I plan to ask for weekly statements by email until I deplete my balance or for a refund and let my account go.
This saving money on VoIP is a lot of work and getting too costly.

Incoming works and my account registers but my outgoing was cut. I didn't notice because I use Asterisk which just grabs any available line.
And all without notice!
What if I needed 911?
If I hadn't tried to login, how would I know? I have a positive balance ... unless they added a fee to clean me out without notice. But then why are they allowing incoming calls?
I wonder why they choose me? Anyone else without outgoing or login privileges? |

2 edits | reply to cbrain You do know that they are now charging about $3.83/ month taxes on your "free" account. They sent out notification email last month.
Also the free accounts are now charged for ALL calls, both incoming AND outgoing, except to/from other voicestick numbers. They didn't email that one... just posted to their website.
I was really enjoying free incoming calls even though I hadn't been able to dial out after their recent service "upgrade" last month (then I switched to my old wrtp54g router yesterday... and now it works again??)
I don't have any trouble logging into or recieving calls on any of the 8 free accounts I help maintain for my family/friends. |

If you had requested to be changed to an outgoing only plan, the user name/phone number is the 333 number |

I didn't get Voicestick's notification of the changes but read about it here. I did get several auto responses and "Thanks you for using i2telecom's Voicestick Product" emails. And it did read "Thanks you." They never again mentioned account verification. That one was probably from a rep who answered before looking at my account. I went for their outbound only plan and after several days was again able to make outgoing calls. |
