Question

Has any one tried the magicjack phone connection and how is it,,is it really worth it?

Answer 1

I am very pleased with this product.

This gadget connects to your pc or laptop via USB port and requires the use of a headset (even bluetooth) or an analog telephone. It offers many features including:

Free telephone number

Free local and long distance calls

Free Caller ID

Free call forwarding

Free directory assistance

Free Call Waiting

Free Voicemail

Free 911

Free faxing

My personal review:

Pros: Speedy shipping. Gadget is small in size. Does not require software to be downloaded to your pc. Portability. Inexpensive. Excellent audio clarity. Ability to continue free usage when out of the country and calling to US or Canada. Family packages. Choose your own area code. Can be used for business as well as personal use. Ability to fax. Option to change telephone number (free first time, after that $10). etc.

Cons: Initially (first couple of days) the audio was garbled. An  update and changing the connected phone resolved the problem. Customer Service is via e-chat (not telephone); however, my experience proved customer service to be swift and satisfactory. The 30-day free trial estimates to actually be a 14-21 day trial--which is rather misleading.

Note: It is not necessary to connect a telephone if you use a headset. Experiment to see which phone works better with your system.

I THINK THIS PRODUCT WILL IMPROVE AND ELIMINATE THE CURRENT COMPETITOR'S SERVICES (SKYPE, VONAGE). That said, expect to see many negative reviews due to threat. LOL

I suggest you try it. If you are not satisfied, you can always return it. I'm a lover of great inventions. I'm excited to see where this leads to w/i the next year or so. Good luck!

Answer 2

Answer 3

Yes, I tried it. It was terrible and I returned it.
