Using Vonage with Virgin Media Broadband

Hi,

Just wanted some thoughts on people using Vonage with Virgin Broadband. Is it reliable?

I am thinking of cancelling my phone line and just keep the broadband.

  • Works perfectly fine, I've been using it for the past few months without an issue. Just be wary that in the event of a power cut you won't have any service whereas with a normal landline you would still be able to use it.

    I haven't cancelled my VM line as yet as the contract isn't up but will be doing once it does.

    I had cable for 3 or 4 years and cancelled the phone one my minimum term was up - I only took it for the free install which, at the time, cost more than the years extra cost of the line. I never used the cable phone - I started out using an ATA and some VOIP provider I can't remember. When I cancelled the cable phone I ported the number to Vonage and still use them now even though I've moved to FTTC. It worked OK on cable despite the jitter.
