Has anyone tried the product Magic Jack?

Hi kgwat, I saw a commercial about it on tv and was surprised. I will look at the website to get more information about it. Please keep me informed about it, I want to know if you like it when you get it. $20.00 a year - WOW!

Wow!! I have never heard about this one. I might have to check it out to see what it is. Do you still like it, and has it been handy for you? Let us know more.

That sounds really good. I wonder if the calls are all clear sounding. Thanks for the info, I hadn't heard about this before.

I have tried it...and am really having quite fun with it..I don't really need it ..since I have unlimited calling..but when I want to call an not let anyone know who it is..I use the magic jack. It's wonderful

I actually had never heard of it before, but i will definately check it out. Thanks for the info and keeps us updated on how it works for you when you get it.

We got one, it works awesome, but we've decided to return it seeing as how we don't use our home phone that much and the did not have any area codes for our state! Now we are going to return it only to discover in order to return it MUST have the original packaging. UGH!! Maybe we'll get it again at a later date but right now we just have no use for a land line.

Hello Ken! This seems too good to be true! With the price of everything going up and up it is great to see a service that is a good value. We have been trying to figure out ways to save money and this would be perfect. You can even make international calls by purchasing minutes. We don't make international calls often, but would be nice to have the service available. I wish I had seen this post earlier! Hope you are doing well. Big huggers to you.

I have never tried it but I am interested in it. My regular phone bill is 60 dollar per a month, compared to 20 dollars a year that's a lot. But I'm not sure how reliable it would be and I really need my phone as I use it to call my assistants.

I do have some questions for you though. I have seen the "infomercial" so long. So it seems like you have used this service for a long time. Do you get to keep the same phone number? Do you get to keep it in the same area code? Can you hook up two or three to the same line? That sounds so cool! Have a wonderful day. Pablo

Thanks for starting this conversation. I just heard about it this morning. I really would like to get one but we get a really good rate with the cable company, since DH works for them. If he ever leaves, I might have to go this route. Do you need to keep your computer turned on to get this to work? Thanks,

Oh,it's really great! But I'm not live in that countries.I hope we also can have that kind of device sometimes as we all cost so much on telephone!I think my dream will come true and maybe we also will have the familiar devicde.

Well since this topic was started 2 years ago then you probably have your magicjack. I have had it for 3 months and I will tell you, you get what you pay for. The sound quality is crap, it goes in and out, drops calls, and when I talk for over 120 mins it automatically cuts the call off. They tell you it has caller ID but it doesn't show up on the phone but on the computer monitor, so it you're not sitting in front of the computer when a call comes in then you are in the dark as to who is on the other end of the phone. They tell you that it includes 3-way calling and but what they don't tell YOU is you can't make the calls, the calls have to come in to you ex.: I am on the phone with my sister A and we want to talk to our other sister B, well I have to hang up and call sister B and tell her to call me in 5 minutes and then I call sister A back then we have to wait for sister B to call me and then I have to press ## then we can be connected on a 3-way call. And also if I am talking to sister A and that pesky ex-boyfriend calls, sometimes without me doing a thing the call flips over to the line he is on and I all of sudden hear his voice instead of my sister. Yes this has happened to me several times. I can't dodge his calls anymore. The magicjack costs $20 a year that's because that's ALL IT IS WORTH!
