Vonage Launches in UK
Vonage, the leading provider of broadband phone services in North America, today announces its plans for launch in the United Kingdom.
Vonage offers consumers and small businesses an affordable alternative to traditional telephone services by using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) to make phone calls using a standard telephone, rather than a headset plugged into a PC.
Vonage provides a convenient phone adapter/router which converts analogue signals to digital signals which plugs into a broadband connection. A standard telephone can then be plugged into the adapter so that when a call is made or received the signal is converted to digital and routed through a high-speed DSL or cable modem across the Internet and back through a traditional phone network to the receiver’s phone – providing low cost and high quality phone calls anywhere in the world.
“Establishing Vonage within Europe and with a strong central base in the United Kingdom has always been a priority”, said Jeffrey A. Citron, chairman and CEO of Vonage. “As a leading provider of broadband phone service, Vonage is rapidly becoming an industry benchmark. We are very pleased to demonstrate our commitment to the European market and to offer UK customers our full-featured, cost-effective calling plans.”
Offers start at £9.99 per month which will include unlimited calling to landline phones within the UK and to the Republic of Ireland, as well as free benefits including:
* Voicemail Plus
* Call Waiting
* Caller Display
* Call Diversion
* 3-Way Calling
* Dialling Code Selection
* Travelling with Vonage
* Call Transfer
* Ring Lists
* Click-2-Call
* Call Return (1471)
* Withhold Caller Display
* Ring Back
* International Call Barring
* Calls to mobile phones for as low as 5p per minute
