why i have vonage!

One member asked why have Vonage if you have a cell phone...

Short answer for me, I am a police officer, and my department has a policy that maintains i have a home phone. So, instead of paying 40.00 a month to BellSouth, I pay 17 a month to Vonage.

I still use my cell for everything, but I at least fall in line with my policy with Vonage!

$40.00 a month for a landline?
Jeeze, I pay $20.00 for my SBC hard line(including call forwarding@$3.95-which I use to forward calls to my cell fone).
After the earthquake we had here in SLO county in December '93, I found out how good having the "5 9's" was. My cell phone became useless due to overload, HSI became erratic in operation, but the olde hard line worked!

Sorry, Vonage-you're only as good as an HSI..and when HSI get's to the "5 9's" in up time, then maybe I'll switch.

P.S. I have no long distance w/SBC-just local area code only.
Thats what the cell phone's for. International long distance? Thats what calling cards are for.
But, this is what works for me...
