So Sunrocket is dead....

[Reel]

What next? I think the deal with my cable company would only be an extra $20/mo or so. Any other suggestions of VoIP companies?

For a second there I thought you named your dog Sunrocket.

 

[Mrvile]

For a second there I thought an ATOT member named Sunrocket passed away.

 

[axelfox]

NOOOOOOOOOO

 

[EvilYoda]

Well that's just AWESOME. Probably just move the parents over to the cable company. damn.

 

[imported_Moo Cow]

I still have six months left!!, I paid the $200 yearly up front.

I better get a refund!

 

[FoBoT]

at least it wasn't the wolves

 

[lupi]

And to think just a couple months ago people were being told to move there when they thought vonage was going under

 

[George P Burdell]

link?

 

[DaveJ]

Man, that sucks... I hope Vonage doesn't die too. I'm paying $20/mo for excellent phone service with Vonage now, and I'll be damned if I'll go crawling back to the f*#^ing telcos if Vonage goes under.

If they filed for bankruptcy then very unlikely you get anything.

But i just went to their site and there is nothing of them going under?

go cell phones and skype, there are boxes now to use normal phones with skype

 

[EvilYoda]

Well their phone worked earlier and is off now, I just called (a cell) to inform them. @&$&#!*$

 

[jamesave]

<-- hope viatalk won't go into the same problem.

 

[preslove]

I knew they wouldn't last.

 

[redgtxdi]

Yup, gone here too......(So Cal).


Went to use the phone & lights are off. (phone connectivity light).


Now what???


And is SR really gone??? Nobody takes up the slack??? Just seems weird to me, but maybe I'm being naive??

 

[SoulAssassin]

My phone is still on...I've saved more than enough that if it goes off tomorrow I'm still way way ahead of the game as long as I can port my # elsewhere.

Well, same here, but that doesn't mean much if you still don't have a working phone, eh?



So who next??? Viatalk?? Cable provider??? Crawl back to Verizon & tell 'em how much you love POTS & really miss it???

 

[imported_Moo Cow]

I just installed Skype and I will be testing it. Too bad the phone costs $150 if you don`t want to turn on the PC to use the service.
I have bare bones Verizon phone service with DSL so I`m not totally hosed and without a phone #.

Great, I just signed up a few months ago for two years.....

What a ***** waste.....

 

[Squisher]

My phone is still on, we'll see what happens.



BTW-the phones weren't working for like 1 1/2 hours last friday. That was the first problem I ever had with them. I wonder if that was the switch over?

 

[ItTheCow]

So may be that's why I'm getting that red light on my VOIP adapter. I can still dial out though; I wonder what's with that?

 

[Kelemvor]

For the best info go to http://www.sunrocketforum.com

Most people going to ViaTalk. They will give you 12 months plus 3 months free plus a credit for your time left on your Sunrocket year. Works out pretty well.

Aye...you can't just give it away. There subscriber bases looks like it was too small to subsidize the new discounts

contact your credit card company NOW! They may be able to help.

Yeah I see viatalk is having a deal. But in my mind i just see viatalk = sunrocket 2.

My sunrocket is still working here in Texas.
