They usually read through therir speal pretty quickly and get right to the canceling part right away. Believe me, since I have been doing this, it has really worked. When they ask why I'm canceling I always say "I don't like green." No one has ever asked me to repeat my answer or even questioned me.

Most of the time it's fine, but sometimes it's terrible. People call me during the day and I'm trying to talk to them but we just can't communicate. Sometimes there are long delays, other times the speech is broken up - like packets are being lost. Maybe it's my ISP, I don't know, but when I have to ask people to call me back on my cell phone so I can hear them, you know something's wrong. Rogers Home Phone has a $20/month plan for unlimited calling in North America. I'll miss out on the emailed voicemail messages, but other than that it'll be cheaper and hopefully more reliable than Vonage. When I move, I'm going to try that out.
