Magic Jack

[forever waiting 11]

Just wanted to share with everyone.

Last October I purchased a Magic Jack from Walmart for $40

I set it up on my fiance's laptop in Turkey when I was visiting, it issues you a US phone number

I call him whenever I want without dialing country codes as if I was dialing in the US, not even dialing 1

and he can call my cell, home or whatever number I have, whereever I am.

We are on the phone day and night;)

It saves all the headache with sometime slow internet lines and it saved us a lot of money.

You only pay $40

In case you didnt know, might wanna try

You can also set it up and mail it to your other half;)

Just a reminder that there is an annual fee for MJ. So if you are still using it after 12 months, you'll need to pay another $30 (or so), or it will stop working.

Small price to pay though.

I've been using it for over a year now and there are no monthly fees. The setup is pretty straight forward. It was fairly simple.

Also, I buy international minutes, which are a good price through magicjack, so I can call his cell phone when needed.

Plus when buying your intenational minutes you can assign a second number to associate with the account so I have my cell phone added on there and I call a Florida number, dial the number and it re-routes my call. I use this when we are not near our magicjacks and I need to call him.

The Magic Jack is a godsend, si man. Mrs. T-B. gave several to her family members, and their use has saved everyone untold zillions of dollars in international phone calls.

International rates depend on the country. For my wife's country, Vietnam, MagicJack is 30 cents a minute. She can use other services like V247 for less than a 5 cents a minute.

Anyway, MagicJack is extremely cool if your spouse or fiancee has an internet connection. They don't even need particularly fast service since MagicJack doesn't need high bandwidth, though a dial-up internet connection won't be fast enough.

Ok, does anyone know if it will work in Russia for Sveta to call me (and her family to call her after the move)? And what if there is no landline phone, but a high speed Internet card on a laptop pc, will it work??? Thanks in advance!!!!!!

Of course. I get 12 cents a minute on MJ, but I don't use the international dialing primarily. Certainly if I had to use it more, I'd hope to find something cheaper like you.

install viber or voxer thru your iphone or any android phones

no charges!!!!

this is better than mahic jack coz it doesnt need a pc and a telephone unit

You dont need a landline. If you have high speed that is great. It works better that way
