I really don't care if you or anyone else wants to get one as I make nothing for the reviews I'm providing. I just hate seeing anyone waste anymore time on a faulty system that is not even a real phone but more of a toy.
Most people that have had Magic Jack are mad at this product and there are many people out there like myself that are watching Dan continue to rip people off with this thing. When I see all the money spent on the dumb infomercials, I just keep hoping the FCC will step in and stop this. His toy needs alot more R+ D and testing before he is allowed to sell anymore of them. To see the reports from other users, go to this site:

On the other hand, there are satisfied MJ customers, like me. It's not my favorite of my three VOIP services (that honor would go to the TK6000), but my MJ has not failed me.

Good deal. And hopefully you will never have the same experience that many of us early-on users had. It was terrible. I gave it 3 years to get it right and I could never count on a clear, clean call that would not drop, echo, click or make some other background noise.
I had long time friends complain alot and I had to do something, so I bagged it.
Hopefully, Dan's thrown some of that profit at the tech support instead of ads and it's getting fixed. Hope so. There is no reason to have to use a seperate phone line if you have one already installed for the internet. Now, if he can get it to run without the need of a computer!

Oh, thank you for trying to take away a service I am happy with!!
Yes, probably one out of three MJ purchasers stop using it , but the other two do not. Yes, we know all about dan's business practices and about all the shortcomings of MJ and blabla but it still works well for very many of us. So why don't you go to the Ooma forum and try to cheer up the folks there ?! And forget about the ripoff report. At least half of their postings, not just about MJ, are total junk.

I don't think I said anything about taking it anywhere. I'm telling you what me and many other people put up with. Today, as I look at the number of people posting problems on this site, I continue to see alot of people that are not getting what they paid for. Now, if you consider that a fair deal, then you need to be in the used car business.
I for one don't like throwing away my money on bogus "projects" like this one. Me and many others were ripped off. Many still are and with lousy service and 0 tech support, if you think it's a good deal then keep getting it. For alot of people it's not.
So, you need to speak only of your own experiece with it. Ripoff Reports is a real site with real people. If what they say offends you, don't read it. I could care less if anyone goes with Ooma or any other system, but people need to know what works and what don't. Had I had more user information on MJ, I would never have bought it. But, at the time it was still new. And when your phone starts sounding like mine did, you too will bail.

And what did they pay for ? In the terms of used car business, they expect a 17000 $ car for 1700 ( because the salesman told them that it was just like new). I got here a 1700$ car worth 3400 and I am fine with that.
No doubt my ATT line was MUCH better than MJ ( or any other VOIP). It was 600/year.
