No need for it. I has a cellphone and that's good enough for me. The complaints online about scare me.

How about this... Does MagicJack sell the phone number to the telemarketers? Do you get a ton of calls wanting to sell you lightbulbs, car warranties, vote for me, ect...? I know they will get the number eventually, but did the telemarketing crap start quickly, or does it take awhile?

if you are worried about that. forget AT/T I don't care what they say, they sell your info. I had a phone turned on in my lame and starting day 2 , I would get 5 to 10 telemarketing calls a day!!! and some knew my name. I call ATT and they played dumb

I remember back when I was an installer at Comcast. I would finish installing the customer's phone and their first call within 10 mins was a telemarketer. LOL

someone screwed your aunt bro! there is no setup fees or anything else its 60$ plus shipping for unlimited calling for 5 yrs. per unit.

there is only 1 place you should buy it from: http://www.magicjack.com

the rest are scams. she must have gotten it somewhere else. I paid 59.95 plus 9.95 shipping per unit for a 5 yr deal. We got 1 then 3 months later cancelled all my business lines and got 2 more.

Maybe, I don't know from just what my wife mentioned.

There are plenty of scams out there, I am sure of it.

Wife told me yesterday, that if you have tmobile cells, you can get a landline through them for 10 bucks a month. So going to check into that.

I heard that that service is just as reliable as their cell service. Doesn't say much.
