1.0 out of 5 stars i2 sticks you with a diconnect fee, December 27, 2005
This review is from: i2 Telecom VoiceStick Portable USB VoIP Internet Phone with Headset (Personal Computers)
It sounds good. It sounds cheap - but read the Terms of Service. They charge you $29.99 to "terminate" the "service". Thats same as charging $29.99 to connect you - only they hide it away and charge it at the end - or you can simply pay their monthly fee forever and never pay to terminate.

Do you really want to give your credit card number to a company that hides its true charges?

If you want to pay the disconnect fee then go for it!

1.0 out of 5 stars AVOID THIS...., January 3, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: i2 Telecom VoiceStick Portable USB VoIP Internet Phone with Headset (Personal Computers)
I bought the voicestick,based on Amazon's reviews and i2telecom web site promises, to handle calls while traveling. I installed it, paid for the highest end service and... voila..I could call home and friends and thought it works...for all 20 minutes..

As soon as I tried calling abroad, my calls would disconnect within less than 15 seconds... I tried several countries and numbers over a few days and got the same call drops. In order to ascertain that the problem was not with my PC or voicestick, I tried calling these numbers from other PCs and also from a regular phone through i2telecom bridge; the calls continued to drop clearly evidencing that the problem rests with the i2telecom network not the PCs. I contacted customer service several times and got one reply that they will be checking this and will contact me..no follow ups or responses to further messages...I settled to consider this service for US only calls. Unfortunately, even these do not quite work. For example, when I call 800 numbers or companies which have a switchboard, the call is typically lost as soon as someone puts it on hold or transfers it.

I then wanted to disconnect from the service but could not find at i2Telecom web menu a pathway for terminating the service; one can only subscribe, not cancel. My messages a few eeks ago to customer service are yet to be answered on how to do this...

On the positive side, if you wish to get a working VoIP phone while on the road, try Skype... it has been working for me excellently calling in the US, from the US abroad from abroad to the US and to other countries...and the fees are rock bottom...Alternatively, I have been using Vonage for my home phone for over 3 years...it is as good as the best traditional phones.. they offer a soft phone service but their fees are higher, which is why I wanted to give other services a try...

Last, I am too busy to try to get a refund on this lemon...If you do wish to have a voicestick contact Amazon to send me email and I will give you my voicestick and i2telecom phone number for free...

3.0 out of 5 stars good days - bad days, January 23, 2006
This review is from: i2 Telecom VoiceStick Portable USB VoIP Internet Phone with Headset (Personal Computers)
I use Voicestick from my cell phone to call across the Atlantic. Some days I can talk an hour or more with no problem. MANY times when my friends pick up the phone and they can not hear me. I have to redial. The line (almost every time I talk) go deaf on one end for a few seconds. Other times it drops the line for good.

I only rated it 3 stars because it is cheap. 99 cents/month + low minute (couple of cents a minute to Europe)charges. What do you expect...well, they aspire to become the best voip service. They have a long way to go.
