I have seen ill-conceived and failing products shamelessly touted, but this is a new low for GO. Times must be tight.
2007 called and wants their VoIP snake oil back.
Or you can get magicjack and run with it for 10Yrs(9*$20= $180 + $40)..and its more portable solution. Only downside you have to have it connected to a laptop
@moncy that’s a pretty huge downside.
I have had ooma for a while, my parents have one, and a dozen or so friends and family. I have nothing but good things to say, once its set, its set for good, works great, and has saved me tons of $. in fact I got $75 in amazon gift cards emailed to me last week just by having 3 friends that wanted one sign up with a promo code that saved them $50 off ooma.
i think costco has the best deal on them, as you get $100 international credit and 6 month premier for free.
My Ooma system works great – I recommend it to all
