Expandable Internet Phone System for Vonage¿

Vonage...How the mighty have fallen.Was a great product when it first came out. Saved us a fortune on international phone calls between India and the US. Eventually the phones just got overused, the batteries eventually died, and the base unit got fried.Technology developed and now we can call for free on iOS apps using Skype, Bobsled, or even Vonage's own app.These are a thing of the past but when they worked, they worked well.

The base unit does not power up at all !!! I should have known better based on the reviews . Does not seem to have warranty either . Smears the Amazon name ! Junk status !!!Not worth even 1 star !!!

Vonage unable to initiate this device. Spent several hours talking to several techs without success. Finally they sent current supported Internet box. Had to buy a regular hard wired phone to connect to new box.

This was a system I bought to replace one that died after 15 years of use. I expect this to work as long as the last. Good clarity and ease of use

Failed within 1 month. Needs a new power source I think, to make it work properly. Is it the plug or something in the box?

I've had this phone for about 5 years. The phone is pretty good but the charger base is not a smart charger. It seems to overcharge the batteries and shortens the life of the batteries. Eventually the battery life is pretty short. I did like the phone enough to buy extra batteries for it at Batteries Plus. I'm sure they addressed the problem with the newer phones.

Purchased and installed about 6 months ago. Stationed overseas so Vonage keeps us sane. The service has been great but the phone died. After troubleshooting with Vonage over the landline phone, they determined the power supply was bad (the plug that goes into the wall). They said they would replace it. 1 month later, no plug. Called and they said they didn't show it was ever mailed. Said they would mail (again). After another month, no show. Took plug to electrician friend, said plug was fine. We took the box apart and the circuit cards were corroded with a white powder which he said was an indicator it got wet or was in a very humid environment for some time. Probably sat in warehouse months before shipping out to us. Ordered Linksys Phone Adapter which uses regular house phone and been gravy ever since. Should have known better, and linksys was cheaper.

I bought this phone about a year and a half ago, and after about 8 months the base station stopped working. I called Vonage customer service and they were surprisingly helpful considering the horror stories that I have heard about them. They said the power supply was faulty, and it was a known issue, and they would ship us a new one ASAP. We received the new adapter within a few days, and we were back in business. Haven't had any problems since, but just recently the battery power has diminished significantly, but I assume they sell replacement batteries? We'll see...
