I made the mistake of signing up with my cell #, how can I sign up again so I can use my Vonage number instead? The app doesnt have an option to logout.

I tried to delete and reinstall the app but it saves the data I used when I signed up.

Anyone know?

Call vonage support - they should be able to help you

Not advisable, unless you like waiting for hours on the phone for somebody in Inda...

said by fiberguy :

Sorry, I'm not sure what the OP is saying, but you clearly can NOT link your home phone or business plan account to the iPhone account.. even according to the app, and the 100 reviewers of the app already, you HAVE to create a new account and you pre-pay the service.

The way I see it, the Vonage app is a waste of time.. the cost to up minutes on the iPhone is FAR cheaper than having to buy minutes through Vonage AND use my ATT minutes as well..

This app is a complete failure.

said by dellsweig :

fiberguy has no idea what he is talking about

said by fiberguy :

Um, okay.. I don't know what I'm talking about.. neither does Vonage either... neither does the email they send out.. and neither does any other user that's used the use the app.

In your own instructions, you create a NEW vonage mobile account and then all the sudden you act like it's magically linked to your home account.. Guess what.. I did that.. guess what.. it's not linked.

If you want to come out the one that knows what he's talking about, you should try putting more detail step by step in your messages.. however, until then, you're not correct at all.

We've already established that 3G is counted against your pool of minutes so I'm not even sure why you're wasting time repeating that..

The question here is simply put.. can you use a home account - the answer is NO.. it states it on their website, it's states it in their email, and Vonage reps clearly state it on the phone.. but since you say it is, and you say I don't know what I'm talking about, I guess we should just believe you.

You also say that because the app says "iphone" and not phone number, that it's a bug and it needs to be re-downloaded.. now THAT'S funny!

Look, you can say I don't know what I'm talking about - as usual, but I'll put my skills and experience against yours any day.. I've worked in technology probably longer than most people on this site. Quite frankly, I don't care what you think about me.. you can just believe what you want.

Wish my blackberry tour from verizon had wifi

said by MSauk :

yeah it doesn't, in fact I think only one of their phones do. Verizon really has not embraced the wifi thing

said by MSauk :

to be honest I don't mind because verizon has a very good network so speeds are always great.

plus the tour is an excellent phone

said by tphillips :

The Tour IMO is the best Blackberry to date. The Storm 2 is coming up for release soon then the Tour 2. Both will have Wifi. So we will see them soon. Storm II 4Q this year.

So if you make a call over 3G, you have to use AT&T minutes and Vonage minutes?

said by ReVeLaTeD :

If I were, I would boycott this app out of principle.

They'll allow Vonage, but not Google Voice. Vonage, being only phone service that technically could use either data type to make and receive calls without the need for AT&T's minutes, instead chooses to bow down to AT&T's wishes. Google Voice, which cannot make or receive calls without an actual phone line, gets blacklisted because of the free SMS.

I REALLY hate services that charge a monthly fee, the vonage APP if you use it for international calling, will charge a .35$ a month fee. Okay, I get it, that is only 4.00$ a year, but one of these FBI services that people really hate. For many, they will just keep using SKYPE since there is no maintenance fee for the service.

Bummer, but looks pretty good.

What BB do you have with Wifi?

said by weaver0 :

If it does link to your Vonage account, can you then bring up the incoming/outgoing history on calls made from the ata?

an app would make this less clumsy then using the web dashboard...

said by XCOM :

I just got off the phone with Vonage tech support. This app DOES not link up to your existing vonage account. if you want to make calls you need to add a debit card.

You wasted 10 Minutes of my life and I want them Back!!!
LOL

said by dellsweig :

Well - mine linked just fine and I did not purchase or link a debit card to my account - simply signed in wioth my vonage account

said by XCOM :

Mhhh really? You must be special or your iPhone app is from another world!
I singed up too with my vonage number and it did not link... Thats why I decided to call tech support and after 10 Min of tech support aggravation I finally get a US "onshore" tech support so he can tell me very quickly that the app does not link up to your vonage account and it never did or it never will.... Which kind of make since from a marketing sort of way... Is another way from them to make money...

said by LordWino :

I think you must be the only one that this has worked for. I can't even delete the first account that I set up to try and verify what you are saying. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app and everything is still in there.
