I'm trying to make an issue out of this because I think it needs to change and I'm hoping people who are affiliated with these providers are reading this. I was going to go with Packet8. I was going through the "final checklist" before subscribing when I came accross this fascist policy.
Sure, I can go with a business plan, but that would cost me $39.95. That's $5 more than I'm spending for an analog phone line! Part of the reason for me to go with VoIP is to become "Quest Free." But suddenly, Quest is starting to resemble the Boy Scouts when compared to the types of usage policies I'm seeing from some of the VoIP providers.
Sorry for the rant, but I hope you understand.
Mike,
I was a happy P8 user for 18 months, just keep in mind that theirs (and most of the "consumer market" voip providers) unlimited plans could be in theory abused by telemarketers and etc.
I just cancelled P8 because their rates to Campinas/Brazil went too high, but is after all, consumer VOIP.
You will notice that almost all the "unlimited VOIP plans" have some kind of safeguard/policy like that. The good part is, IMHO, with VOIP, you are really free to choose :-) and running asterisk just give you even more flexibility.
You may want to take also a look at http://www.dslreports.com/forum/voip
They have quite few users of each of the consumer VOIP providers, and you should be able to have a feeling about how good/bad are their experiences.
