I have seen other companies also use asterisk, but they don't do this gimmicks too for marketing using this mailing list.
Also I had some respect on Olle before, but I lost it now. (When people get some money will they?)
Sending emails like Viruses (Exact format what virus emails will do). These people never care for their customers.
See how we will feel if we get a message from a telephone service company. "If you don't follow this, we will terminate your account" when it is not our fault. Is it not a real nonsense? What they will do if we have a device which sent similar messages to their server, do we need to upgrade our firmware or to through out the device?
I too GRADE BROADVOICE AS A STUPIDIEST SERVICE I EVER SEEN in the broadband voice services.
Cheap people will always give cheap prices, it is definitely true.

I also tried Broadvoice, I had the same problems and quality of service. The real problems started however whenever I tried to cancel the service....
When I decided cancel, I contacted them 2 WEEKS before my billing date and asked them to stop my account at the end of the month so as to not get charged for another months worth of service. I would still have 2 weeks of service left, however I had already switched my Asterisk box over to use Nufone and Gafachi so it didn't matter, I also notified Broadvoice using e-mail, which their support had instructed me to do, and I got a reply indicating they had received and was sorry that I was leaving... Well, they never cancelled the account, and two weeks later, I got an email from Broadvoice saying my Credit Card had been billed for another months service.
When I called to ask them for a refund and demand that the account be cancelled, I had some bozo in support searching thru my call records to make sure that I had not made a call on the account that THEY neglected to close. The support guy then claimed that I had made a phone call on the account and was not due the refund. Ok, stop for a minute; 1) How could I have made the phone call if they would have closed the account when I had instructed them too? 2) I hadn't made any phone calls with them for two weeks! 3) Why was this guy searching my call records for a simple account cancelation dispute?
I had to end up filing a complaint with my credit card company to get the refund.
My suggestions:
Stay away......

Nah, tried it. I've been having these problems with BroadVoice from the get-go. Randomly it'd go down for a few days without so much as a simple apology. They'd suggest that I fiddle with the settings but every time after a few days it'd just start working again (and it'd actually work well when it was up).
I've given up on BroadVoice. The way they treat me shows me that they simply don't want/need my business.

My BroadVoice account has been down for over a week with neither an explanation nor a service credit. Our problems may be a little different though because I don't remember what happened when I tried to dial out. I know that I do get a "Request Timeout" error while trying to register though.
