Voice Over IP Provider Packet 8.

As the VOIP industry grows more competitive, smaller Voice Over IP providers must distinguish themselves by offering specialized features. Packet8 understood this notion by developing the first videophone VOIP Phone service in the industry!

But would that be enough to gain a sustainable part of the VOIP market? 6StarReviews studied Packet8, and completed a thorough review of the services offered by the Voice over IP provider, and here’s what we found…

Residential service

  • Freedom annual: $199.00/Year – Unlimited calling United States/Canada – Low rates to other countries – Special Uniden Offer (Free phone with plan, after $50.00 mail-in refund)
  • Freedom Unlimited: $19.99/Month – Unlimited calling United States/Canada – Low rates to other countries – Special Uniden Offer (Free phone with plan, after $50.00 mail-in refund)
  • Freedom Unlimited Videophone: $19.99/Month - Unlimited calling United States/Canada - Unlimited worldwide calling to other Packet8 Videophones – $100 mail-in refund on Videophone - Low rates to other countries

Reasons to choose Packet8

  • Find me, Follow me: Enter up to 5 numbers to ring in sequence. For example: you can enter your mobile phone number as well as your office phone number to ring when your Packet8 home number is not answered.
  • Voicemail to E-mail notification: Even they are not the only VOIP provider offering this feature, 6StarReviews like this innovation so much, we feel it is worth mentioning it every occasion.
  • Network Available Forwarding: You won’t lose any customers if your connection goes down, as they can be forwarded to a pre-programmed number such as your cell phone.
  • Anonymous Call-Blocking: No more telemarketing firm calling you while you are eating. Activate the option, and the anonymous caller will receive a busy signal. How many times you think they will try calling before getting the message?

6StarReviews’s favorite feature: Enhanced 911 Dialling: No need to worry about giving the right address when calling 911 through VOIP phone service, while in the middle of a chainsaw massacre. Calling E911 troughs Packet8 activates a pop up that gives your address directly to the operator.
