Internet Phone Service

Savvy travellers save money with Internet phone service

(NC)-You're away on business or on vacation and you need to phone home. What are your options? Well you could use your cell phone and pay exorbitant roaming charges. You could use your hotel phone and pay the sky-high hotel phone rates. Or you could whip out your Vonage telephone adapter, plug it into your hotel or office high-speed Internet connection and a standard touch-tone phone, and call home for free.

Today's smart travellers are using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone service, and saving big bucks on their long-distance phone calls and home phone bills. By making phone calls over the Internet, every call is like a local call. It doesn't matter whether you're in Winnipeg, Florida or Hong Kong. With VoIP service you can make and receive calls wherever you are in the world - all as part of your monthly flat-rate package.

Bill Rainey, president of market leader Vonage Canada, and himself a frequent traveller says, "I take my Vonage telephone adapter with me wherever I go. When I'm in my hotel room, I plug the hotel phone into my telephone adapter via the hotel's high-speed Internet connection. Then I can call anyone, or they can call me, using my regular phone number and without incurring any long distance charges. It's the perfect combination of convenience and cost-savings."

No wonder VoIP phone service is being hailed by experts as 'the next big thing'. Already over one million people in North America have switched to VoIP, a number that is expected to grow rapidly as word spreads about the myriad of benefits of Internet telephony.
