This was because while the service was great, the monthly price for their service was a bit high considering other providers were offering just about the same thing for far less per month.<\/p>\n<p>Now, after playing around with this a bit and settling on a provider I like, I can now say that if you&#8217;re interested in VoIP, I recommend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.packet8.net\">Packet8<\/a> phone service.  it&#8217;s a smaller company than the previous offering, but so far their service has been great in the month or so that I&#8217;ve been testing it.  As is typical, I won&#8217;t bored people by going through the sales pitch; feel free to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.packet8.net\/index.asp?Affiliate=scrdpoet\">visit their site<\/a> and have a look at what they offer.<\/p>\n<p>To appeal to the cheapskate in everyone, I contacted Packet8 and was hooked up with a referral code for anyone who wants to save $5 off their initial order with them.  When <a href=\"http:\/\/www.packet8.net\/about\/joinnow.asp\">signing up<\/a>, just enter referral code <strong>scrdpoet<\/strong> to get the discount.  (Note: some sites are offering what they claim is  a $20 discount code, however I tried one when I signed up for service, and it turned out to be the same $5 referral code I&#8217;m offering here).<\/p>\n<p><\/del><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scaredpoet.com is not the coporate whore of Packet8 phone service, whee. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-110","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-gadgets-widgits-and-whatzits"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=110"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=110"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=110"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=110"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
