Anyone use a "Free home phone" VOIP device?

What the **** plan only has 300 voice minutes? It's 2015 for God's sake. Get a real plan. Dump your land line. Use the Bluetooth cordless phone linked to your cell.

Virgin Mobile $35/mo plan.

You could get a respectable unlimited voice plan for less than what you're spending combined on your cell and home phone service.

I have unlimited both

there are two people I talk to with some regularity, my lady and my mother. None of us likes initiating phone calls so most of the time we text. The lady and I frequently trade dozens of texts through a given day.

Go up to straight talk cell phone. 50 you get unlimited everything
go down to very basic local only home phone

Like I said before. BASIC TALK. $10/mo. Keep your existing number. Unlimited long distance and local calls. $10/mo. Can't beat it. Buy it, install it, transfer number, cancel old service, enjoy.

I have the same plan and they just moved me to unlimited talk. Never came close to using 300 minutes a month, hell I don't even think I use an hour a month. I hate being attached to that ****ing phone.

Tha's $120/yr and yes it is beatable, almost every VOIP option is less.

I just went through this crap 6 months ago. The other options we found were sketchy and some had fees that weren't included in the cost. Magic Jack sounded sketchy, but I'm intrigued reading Mark has good luck with it.

I went from cable TV, cable internet and cable phone to Direct TV, cable internet (only service worth a damn in my area) and basic talk. Saved $110/mo. I assume you're looking for meaningful savings. The only way I found it possible was to revise the three services.

You should just raise carrier pigeons

You sure about that?
