Thinking of getting magicJack, if anyone still has it, how is it working for you? Please let me know. Thanks!!

@Burgvati – i have 2 of them and just renewed one of them that was up for renewal. Sure, they may not be perfect, but they serve my purposes really well and for $20 a year? I still am amazed that it’s so cheap compared o cellular, landline or even skype. probably won’t be that cheap forever… esp with people like me opening my big mouth

How pissed off can you get at something that only costs roughly $20? You want something that works great 100% of the time, be prepared to pay more IMO

@ScubaSteveM45 exactly! good point! amazing how riled up some people get over this thing!

I’m on my 3rd year I love it. I just paid 19.95 and NO TAX for the whole year again.
You must have it installed on a computer thats close to a wireless router, otherwise your call quality will suffer. So make sure your computer is like 3 feet from your wireless router for excellent calls. Don’t install it on a computer thats like farther away otherwise the call quality goes down. Use your cordless phone like me and walk around the house and yard

My friend who lives in Missouri turned me on to MagicJack & it saves me a whole lot of money + I have no issues with the product…
#9 by The21time at July 7th, 2010
It is a very uncomplicated device that works with ease. I can’t understand why alot of people are not happy with it…
#10 by followyourbliss101 at July 7th, 2010
@The21time . . . some small minded people have nothing better to do with their time… some might be competition badmouthing the product

#12 by DJTEVAdotCOM at July 25th, 2010
It never worked for me. I was hearing choppy calls . This product was crap for me. OOma phoneworked for me. Yeah it cost more but Ive been using it for 2 years and it work just like a real LAN line with no problems as far as choppy calls for 2 YEARS.

i have high speed internet it works fine with that its the highest speed!! when i had slow service it worked poorly so basically i love it no drop calls or any probs what so ever i would buy it a millon times but only with the highest speed internet!!
#14 by ination at July 29th, 2010
Majic Jack is a fraud. They advertise free calling and its NOT FREE. Read thier terms before you purchase this useless low quality device (SECTION 6 in their terms). My internet speed is 15 megabits/sec yet the voice keeps cutting. They have the WORST customer and techincal support. STAY AWAY! They suspended my account and its irreversible I lost $60 a week after I activated the device :reason: They calim that i made more then 20% calls than the average cutomer. Filing FTC and BBB today.

It’s a great product. Much more like a real phone than skype even.
#16 by ZeroCrossings777 at August 7th, 2010
Renewal is $39.95 per year not $19.95. The initial advertising is very misleading which I find unethical. The device works well so if you don’t mind being lied to than this device is for you. For myself, I don’t do business with liars.
#17 by followyourbliss101 at August 7th, 2010
@ZeroCrossings777 you are mistaken…I certainly wouldn’t want to assume you are a liar – merely spreading misinformation . . . magic jack offers a $69.95 deal for 5? years or 19.95 for one year renewal. $39.95 is what a new jack plus 1 year of service included costs. But of course existing customers already know this.

would this work pluged directly into the modem ? cuase i dont leave my computer on 24 hours a day
#19 by followyourbliss101 at August 8th, 2010
@StealthNinjaX2 i don’t think so as there is software hardwired into the jack and when it’s plugged in, you have to click on the icon to ‘launch’ it….
#20 by chuckluck66 at August 8th, 2010
wow people are crazy its not a scam if it doesnt work you prolly have a piece of shit computer or internet service 5 years for 70 bucks cant beat it magic jack has a few problems nothing to hard to fix
#21 by StealthNinjaX2 at August 8th, 2010
@followyourbliss101 ok, thanks for telling me
#22 by followyourbliss101 at August 8th, 2010
@StealthNinjaX2 you’re welcome
#23 by michealati at August 15th, 2010
If you would recommend it…why ask the question IF it sucks? lol
#24 by mrpilot102 at August 18th, 2010
This is the worst product I have ever purchased. The insult to injury was dealing with their horrific customer service and live chat. Buyer beware!!
The product never did work, they tried and tried at MJ with their brutal live chat..they kept transferring me to new “TOP” tech’s. No one could get it working. I should have known better when they told me I could not register my MJ on my Mac and had to go find a windows based PC to do so…they didn’t say that on the ad did they? HORRIBLE!!!
#25 by followyourbliss101 at August 23rd, 2010
today, august 23, 2010, it DOES suck. one of mine is prompting a registration window which after entering info tells me it’s already registered (well, duh) but then still won’t let me run it… the other magic jack is not working to make outbound calls to landlines… cellphones yes, landlines no… incoming landline calls yes…. must be too many people on the network overloading the system. I still like MJ anyway for teh most part.
