A reader from Calgary, Canada has had a great experience with Magic Jack so far. He is what he had to say:
Wow! A whole lotta haters here. I have a magicjack and will admit that when I first tried to set up a Calgary phone number I was left brain confused. The available phone numbers for 403 were 403-800-xxxx – I could not get past the 800 number part and put the USB away for a few days. I went back and tried again, agreed to pay $10/yr for a Canadian phone number (less than 1/2 the cost of one month of shaw svc).
I have ZERO complaints so far! Voice mail, caller Id (yes it is phone number only but if I don’t know the phone number I don’t answer anyhow) portable home phone number.
It will be interesting in a year though – I did purchase the 5 yearr deal. Seems a lot of dissatisfaction here is around “renewals”.
Would be ideal to move my shaw phone number to my magicjack – for now. I am informing those that need to know… we are leaving the monoploy/big box of internet/phone… with or without the dinosaurs!
Not sure what that last sentence means, but what the heck.



Tried MagicJack Plus in KS with highspeed internet through COX and IT WORKS flawlessly!! Only took a few minutes to setup. Now have connected to router (rather than computer) which eliminates messing with MagicJack software on computer.
Best thing ever!! Sent 5 page FAX with my all-in-one printer without a hitch!!
I am BELIEVER now … MagicJack Plus anyway!
