Supes™ Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I have Chater for cable TV and broadband internet. They keep pushing me to buy their VoIP telephone service. Anyone use it? Any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biloxifalcon Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I don't have it yet, but I am definitely gonna drop AT&T soon, so VOIP will be the way I go. Sorry, I know that doesn't answer your question though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyhawk Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I don't know specifically about Charter but VOIP has its ups and downsUp- Its cheapDown- If the power/cable goes out so does the phone.Up- Its very cheapDown- signal quality can be spotty (but fixed by getting a signal booster)My payment with Vonage is $24.92 per month. I keep a trac-fone in the car just in case.What you have to look at with a cable company is to see if they are bundling. If so they are giving you a cheaper rate over the short term but can jack it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrews_31 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Supes, don't have Charter but I do have Comcast and I am satisfied with the service. The good thing about Comcast versus Vonage (don't know about Charter) is that they CAN locate your residence when you dial 911. I remember that you had to do something different with Vonage. The sound quality is fine with me, can't tell the difference!! The only drawback is when the Cable is out, the phone is dead. This has happened a few times, but service was back up within a few minutes. No hassle though, cell phone worked! Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
