Phone call Tax and Fees of $36 dollars

No it's $36 for the entire prepaid length of the plan.

Monthly plans have a $3 free. Our current promotion is a 2 Years for Price of 1 deal and its $3 x 12 = $36 for the duration of the prepaid plan.

Thank you for setting me straight.

I have decided to dump Magic Jack for Voipo. I just hope it is a MUCH better experience than the disaster I had with MJ. That was the most horrible scam I have ever fallen for.

Btw, I dumped Magic Jack also after I read that they are very restrictive on the number of calls you can place.

Yes, I can relate with all the horrible stories about Magic Jack. I am in the process of trying to get some of my money back they stole. I filed a complaint with the BBB, which was a waste of time, then I filed another complaint with our state attorney generals office, and getting ready to file papers in small claims court. As soon as I get this mess straightened out, I will try Voipo. I am sick and tired of paying money to a company, and getting screwed.

As an update, I took Magic Jack head on, and won. I have now proceeded with my plan to subscribe with Voipo and ordered their service. I look forward to doing business with a company that seems to stand behind, not only there product and service, but more importantly, the customer.

Hello, I want to make sure I understand this so I know how to handle my state tax return.

I bought residential service. I live in Ohio and I understand since voipo is in Texas, this is an out of state purchase.

How much of the $36 is sent to Ohio? Because when I file my Ohio tax return, I have to pay sales tax on out of state purchases. So I need to know what voipo sends to Ohio.

Thanks.

I am not a tax expert. But as far as I understand this is not an "internet purchase" that you have to report to IRS. The service fee that being charged is not just sales tax, it also includes E911 fee, Federal user fee etc. State sale tax if paid would go to the place where the service is generated that is in Texas or California (I believe it is CA not TX).

As I said this is not a "product" but a service, that is being full filled from elsewhere. Some one correct me if I am wrong, thanks.

I hear you regarding Magic Jack... my family owns 3 of them (purchased 4 but lost 1) and although the price was good, the reception was awful and the customer service/billing disasters even worse...
