Yep AAPT had a great Sales person who had great communication skills etc but ever since I joined up I have had to deal with people who have very strong accents that I struggle to understand especially with my 3yo making a noise and jumping around me. So frustrating!!! I wish NIB (health insurance company) had a phone company... they are fantastic when you ring... friendly, helpful, CLEAR and consistent....and you don't have to pay to call them to sort an issue!
So we might have to change internet providers to do voip? Hmm, we are with Pacific (internet) and they are fantastic... DH would be very reluctant to change... he gets unlimited downloads on the weekend during which time he adds to his comprehensive music collection.
I agree with AJP.. I have had the odd crackly call but really its not a problem... (remember I am in a rural area which has an effect).
The other party doesn't have to have VOIP Bath for you to benefit. After you use the 100 calls a month the calls are 16 cents for 2 hours!... So, it's pretty funky I reckon!
we are with dodo and love it
so cheap we ahev all our phones, mobile home and internet with them costs us 90 a month for all 4
the service is good havent ahd any issues with them.
we can track our usage online and can stop mobile phones being called and you do most of it over the net and when you do call they are helpfull sometimes hard to understand but even with optus i couldnt understand the help person lol
I just swithced to iinet.
I pay around $50 a month for the same net usage as I had with telstra for $90.
I pay around the same for line rental & have a voip pack included for $20 extra. My voip includes all national calls for free. Mobiles are 30c a minute. Not sure about call blocking or anything though...don't have teens yet, lol.
Only problem is that I need to pick a thing up for my voip that I keep forgetting, so not sure how it works yet.
I can call land lines from it & have a seperate number for people to call me on it (not sure if its cheaper for them or not though).
Yes Bath that's what I said above that I do! I have no telstra line any more. I have a bigpond wireless internet service - obviously doesn't require a line as it's wireless.
I have the voip service and for $100 for the year I get 100 national and local calls per month.
Mynetfone allowed me to choose a new number or for a fee of about $2 per month you can use your previous telstra number I think. I opted for a new number.
So now I pay no phone bill (until next year!) and only my wireless internet... It is wonderful!
