If your home phone service is with Vonage your bills will rise by £1 a month, as Vonage increases the cost of some its call plans today.
Vonage (www.vonage.co.uk), an internet phone provider that lets customers make calls via their broadband connection, has increased the cost of some of its calling plans by £1.
The changes to the plans are:
There are no changes to the Vonage V-Plan UK and the Vonage V-Plan 4i tariffs.
Depending on the Vonage price plan you sign-up to, you can get unlimited free evening and weekend calls and free calls to other Vonage customers, as well as some free international calls.
Simon Piper, business development manager at Homephonechoices.co.uk, said: “Using VoIP is a great way to save money on your home phone bills, especially if you make a lot of calls to friends and family overseas.”
If you want to sign-up to Vonage you will need a broadband connection, and a special Vonage adapter - these can cost up to £29.99. Activation costs £9.99, and as soon as you have your Vonage adapter you can plug it into your broadband router and start making calls straight away, using an ordinary touch-tone phone.
Piper added: “Unlike other VoIP services like Skype, Vonage can be used as a reliable second phone line and its call plans come with 20 inclusive call features - you can even get your voice messages emailed to you.”
