Louisville, KY | I just used it last month... And it worked fine. What's all the fuss about?
But yes, I read the instructions and activated 911 right after the service was activated. Funny how reading helps so much. | |

| Re: I just used it last month... ::begin sarcasm:: Tsk tsk. You expected people to take responsibility for their actions and ::gasp:: read the instructions? What planet are you from? Here we don't take any personal responsibility, we expect the government to take care of everything, for free, and it is always somebody elses fault when something goes wrong.
"I'm sorry Mr. Government, I built my house on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean and it slid into the ocean when part of the cliff erroded, I'm poor and need your help to rebuild my house so it can get washed away again next year. I have insurance but I don't want to use it because my rates will go up and don't tell me not build my house on the edge of a cliff, this is a free country!"

| What I'm pissed about is that I can't receive local calls on my Vonage line
I've had the service for six monts and it's been a total runaround - they say that everything is ok and it must be BellSouth - I call BellSouth and they have no incentive to open a case (actually the say they "can't" since I'm not a customer) - so I have a BellSouth customer friend of mine open a call and they too say everything is ok and it must be Vonage - etc
This was all after I was sick of dealing with customer service - an hour on hold every time - they led me on for months that my number transfer (which should take 20 days) was still "processing" - I finally called BellSouth and they said it was not going to happen because I had cancelled my account with them - duh! - I was so fed up with customer service that I finally emailed anybody I could find at Vonage - CEO, VPs... - and they escalated my case...
Sorry to go on so - but don't expect much from those guys - and the "standard" VOIP equipment they make you buy is degraded so it only works with Vonage ( »sipphone.com/legal/ ) - and yes my shit's still broken - local incoming calls don't work - Vonage finally contacted BellSouth on my behalf - opening case Paetec 426-127 - and nothing but finger pointing from both BellSouth and Vonage resulted
