MagicJack
Posted By Admin on August 31, 2010
I have been doubtful of this Magic Jack infomercial but not anymore. My Aunt who visited the USA bought one for herself and had it installed in her laptop and she now got a US phone number. When she got back to the Philippines, she called me using her Magic Jack.
A friend of my Mom, also bought one and has been using her Magic Jack to call her relatives in the USA and Canada.
Because of this I bought one too hoping to call free to the Philippines but too bad I found out that I can’t. I was upset but it was my fault that I didn’t bother to research first before buying.
So before you buy you have to understand these things:
~ A Magic Jack number calling another MagicJack number, the call is free..
~ Magic Jack can call any US and Canada number …
~ People in the US and Canada can call the Magic Jack US number that’s located anywhere in the world …
~ Magic Jack should only dial US and Canada phone numbers, if not, one has to buy the international minutes to be able to call another country other than US and Canada…
~ There is a renewal fee or fee of some sort after a year …
~ The reception is a bit choppy sometimes especially if the magicJack is connected to a PC that has slow Internet connection…
So there you go folks, this is my firsthand experience with the MagicJack and overall it is working okay, I am using it as a landline for now but I might send it to my sister in the Philippines so I can call her and not type when chatting.
I decided to write and post this because I know that lots of my fellow Filipinos want to call the US and it’s expensive so this is good information for all of you . Also, if you are doing business with people in the US and Canada, this will also save you a lot of bucks as you can call them for free if you have the MagicJack unit.
