VoIP Benefits and Features
Local Number Portability (LNP)
LNP allows consumers to switch from one wireless carrier to another within the same general metropolitan area. It does not allow consumers to keep the same phone number when moving to a new town or city.
LNP also allows consumers to move a phone number from a wireline phone to a wireless phone in some cases.
Under the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC’s) “local number portability” (LNP) rules, so long as you remain in the same geographic area, you can switch telephone service providers, including interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) providers, and keep your existing phone number. If you are moving from one geographic area to another, however, you may not be able to take your number with you. Therefore, subscribers remaining in the same geographic area can now switch from a wireless, wireline, or VoIP provider to any other wireless, wireline, or VoIP provider and still keep their existing phone numbers.
It’s easy to change your phone service from other carriers to Lingo VoIP. Now its even better cause you can keep your current phone number. Simply sign up on our website at http://www.lingobroadband.com or call our customer service at 1.800.575.2640. Then right after your order you can give Lingo the authorization to transfer your current phone number to Lingo this can be done online. If you want to try it first before transferring your current number you can do that since you can always transfer your phone number later. The transfer usually takes 15 – 20 days after you give us the authorization. Take advantage of this benefit today. Call us and start saving!!!

TIP - If you want to change companies:
Do not terminate your service with your existing company before initiating service with the prospective new company.
Contact the new company, which will start the process of porting your number by contacting your current company. Be prepared to provide the new company with your 10-digit phone number, customer account number, five-digit zip code, and passcode/ password, if applicable.
If you have a problem porting your phone number from one service provider to another, first try to resolve it with the responsible provider. If you cannot resolve the problem directly, you can file a complaint with the FCC. There is no charge for filing a complaint. You can file your complaint using the on-line complaint Form 2000B found on the FCC Web site at www.fcc.gov/cgb/complaints.html. You can also file your complaint with the FCC’s Consumer Center by e-mailing fccinfo@fcc.gov; calling 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) voice or 1-888-TELL-FCC (1-888-835-5322) TTY; faxing 1-866-418-0232; or writing to:
Federal Communications Commission
Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau
Consumer Inquiries and Complaints Division
445 12th Street, SW
Washington, D.C. 20554.
Include the following in Your Complaint:
The best way to provide all the information the FCC needs to process your complaint is to complete fully the on-line complaint Form 2000B. If you do not use the on-line complaint Form 2000B, your complaint, at a minimum, should indicate:
- your name, address, e-mail address, and phone number where you can be reached;
- the telephone and account numbers that are the subject of your complaint;
- the names and phone numbers of any companies involved with your complaint;
- the amount of any disputed charges, whether you paid them, whether you received a refund or adjustment to your bill, the amount of any adjustment or refund you have received, an explanation if the disputed charges are related to services in addition to residence or business telephone services; and
- the details of your complaint and any additional relevant information.

Internet Phone

An Internet phone is nothing more than an electronic adapter with blinking lights on the front and a few jacks in the back. Plug a normal telephone into its phone jack then plug the adapter directly into your router, which is hooked up to a broadband Internet connection. But the intelligence of most Internet phones like LINGO is that your computer isn't involved at all. In fact you can turn off your computer and still make phone calls using the phone adapter that is connected to the phone unit. That means you don’t have to eave your computer on 24/7 just to make and receive calls. What a deal!!!

Due to the strong international presence of Primus Telecommunication, Lingo offers wonderful International calling plans along with unique capabilities like the ability to choose international phone numbers in any major international city.
From: Compare VoIP
Lingo functions a little differently than most of its major competitors, in that with Lingo you can use your same land line handset. Lingo simply provides an adapter that converts the signal from your broadband connection to function through a land based telephone. But this does not mean that the system can function adequately with anything less than a solid DSL or Cable connection. Nonetheless, the convenience of being able to make good use of your home telephones is a major advantage of the Lingo system.

Customer: DREWBY
Lingo VoIP Brings us Closer to Family
We received our Lingo phone adapter today. The Lingo service is a Voice over IP (VoIP) system that allows us to make and receive phone calls using our broadband internet connection. We picked the Unlimited Asia Plan for $34.95 a month. This plan includes unlimited calling to US, Canada, UK, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, South Korea, Guam and most importantly JAPAN. My wife, Aya, is Japanese and we spend quite a bit of money on long distance calls to home each month. So, the prospect of unlimited calling to Japan for only $34.95 sold us on the idea.
Customer: VOIP Gazette
Lingo Voip - more Free International Calls
Lingo Voip, an economy voip service provider, added four new countries in the Asia-Pacific region to its global calling plan. Lingo subscribers to the global plan now can call Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and South Korea free. This brings the total number of countries included in Lingo’s global calling plan to 21 for $21.95 per month.

Vonage or Lingo - which is the better choice?
Peter Gottlieb's experience with Vonage...
About 10 days ago I wake up to an email stating that they have upgraded
the firmware in my router and that they can no longer reach it. I was
instructed to reboot the network and if I did not have a dialtone to
reply to the message and they would send me a new adapter overnight, at
no charge, and give me a free month of service. I replied. Three days
later I called their tech support. Go through 5 levels of voice menus to
get a busy signal. 9 hours of attempts later I get in the queue and the
agent says he will send me a new unit, the old one must be factory
reprogrammed. I then receive "thank you" emails thanking me for my order
and that they have charged my credit card for the new unit plus shipping
and that they have a very strict return policy and I must ship back the
original unit "with all original materials including box, packing,
manuals and accessories" and do it with a service that has tracking. I
get the new box, install and set it up (which I doubt 95% of consumers
could do as it involves setting internet and DSL options) and lo and
behold, same problem! So I call tech support again, this time I was
lucky, it only took me 4 hours to get someone. This guy though knew what
was going on. He explained some of their servers have a problem dealing
with updating through the Westel DSL boxes and he would remove those
from the list that my account uses. He then gave me the box password to
do a "factory reset" and it reloaded both its firmwares from new servers
and after about 5 minutes it was running again. Obviously they did not
need to send me a new box.
Philip Greenspun's experience with Vonage...
Vonage sound quality was reasonably good for the first month or so and
then deteriorated with lots of static on every call. Filling out a tech
support form on their Web site resulted in an automatic email reply that
in the event of technical trouble I should consider power cycling my
cable modem and that if this didn't solve the problem, I should reply
to the email. I replied to this email and never got a response. I called
the tech support number and waited for about one hour on hold. They
decided to send me a new router, which arrived after about one week.
With the new router the static on my end was gone. But people whom I
called complained that my voice was barely audible and covered in static.

LINGO PROS AND CONS
With VoIP providers fighting for market share increasingly heavy competition, Lingo has shown a cheap alternative to the more well known VoIP providers. Its growing popularity is due not only to the many call features it offers, but also the most important feature, price. But that is not to say, that everything about Lingo is attractive or even that it is the great service for every user.
How it Works
If you've got a broadband Internet connection,
Lingo is a service you can use to make Internet phone calls at significant savings over analog calling.
Lingo sends your phone call across the Internet.
Your calls go through your modem.
Your Lingo phone adaptor splits your high-speed broadband Internet connection.
Your Internet connection should work as it did before you installed the Lingo phone adaptor - sending emails and other web data to your personal computer.
Your phone calls are sent through your Lingo phone adaptor to your regular or cordless phone.
Features

Limitations
We experienced few drops during the test calls. For those who are not really familiar with their computer and internet set up one might have a little problem in setting up the VoIP system. But friendly customer service is always available to assist you.
Pros: Includes Western Europe in "local" calling area, allows you to keep your telephone handsets, is cheaper than the rest.
Cons: Some might find it hard to install but friendly customer service will be more that happy to assist you and troubleshoot with you.

Frequently Asked Questions about VoIP
VoIP causes problems with Internet browsing?
Voip uses your broadband connection, but won’t use up all the line, only a part of it. That means you can use your Voip line while browsing the internet.
Lingo SoftPhone gives you the freedom to make and receive phone calls from your desktop or laptop computer. Simply download and install the application and talk from virtually anywhere! Click here to go to www.lingobroadband.com or call us now 1.800.575.2640 for more information
Do I need to have a high speed internet provider to be able to use VoIP?
Yes. This is one of the major components to be able to use VoIP system. Even if you have the VoIP phone adapter but no high speed broadband internet connection then the system will not work.
Is VoIP considered a landline?
No. Landline or land phone is the traditional phone service that comes in over a dedicated copper wire or fiber optics as to comparing it to VoIP it is sending voice traffic via wireless transmission or over Internet lines. That’s why one needs a high speed broadband internet connection before purchasing VoIP as your provider.
Do I have to leave my computer on all the time?
You don’t need to keep your computer on to receive or make VoIP calls, but you always need to keep your modem and VoIP adapter on to be able to make and receive calls.
If you want to make calls from your computer using a SoftPhone application, then the computer has to be on, but if not you can leave it off.
How is VoIP different from a regular phone? And is a VoIP phone a “real” phone?
VoIP phone is a real phone. When you make a call using a regular phone, your voice travels over the telephone lines that are spread from one end of the country to the other. It’s in a form called analog. While VoIP simply takes your analog conversation and converts it to a digital form, so it can travel more efficiently. It might go over DSL lines, cable, wireless networks, or even satellite. Instead of traveling as a single unit, your conversation is converted into neat little packets, which are tagged for identification. Each packet looks for the fastest route to the person you’re talking to, kind of like a race. When they arrive, they’re automatically reassembled and converted back to an analog form. It’s practically immediate depending on the speed of the broadband. So, YES VoIP is a real phone.
No. As long as you have high speed broadband internet provider in the new address all you have to do is set it up again just don’t forget to bring along your VoIP adapter then you’re all set!
Can I use my VoIP adapter while traveling?
Yes. You can use your VoIP phone adapter anywhere as long as there is high speed broadband internet provider. I would suggest the Lingo SoftPhone. This gives you the freedom to make and receive phone calls from your desktop or laptop computer. Simply download and install the application and talk from virtually anywhere!
