"Excellent call quality, reliable, Lingo routes calls around local telco's downed switching buildings (great during/after storms)"
"Not a single one!"
"I wish Lingo had always been around!"

I've had Lingo for a bit over 4 years. The service is exceptional although the last time I called their technical support department (about three years ago) it was a miserable experience. But then again, calling AT&T's customer service is horrible as well. So here's why I like Lingo:
1) Great price! You just can't beat the price and Lingo offers so much more than Vonage. Lingo's FREE international long distance is the icing on the cake for me.
2) Excellent features. Once I locked myself out of my home (I left the keys inside) but I could open the door via my phone. I used my cell phone and call forwarded Lingo to my cell so that when the door would ring the home phone I could open it from my cell. Only Lingo could do that!
3) Most reliable service ever! Lingo worked great during both hurricanes Katrina and Wilma. When AT&T's switching offices went down and land line calls and even cell phone calls could not get through, Lingo routed calls around those switching offices and I was able to reach family and friends. Only Lingo could do that!
4) Detailed and accurate billing. I get more detail than I really want but I am not complaining. The whole thing is paperless and effortless. I can download PDF's of my bills and file them away on my PC.
5) Awesome call quality. Lingo sounds much better than AT&T's network. With Lingo I do not hear the persistent hissing that is ever present on modern land lines.
6) Do you travel internationally? Well, take Lingo's box with you! I took mine when I was in Paris and plugged it into my hotel room's internet jack. I was able to receive and make calls as if I was back in the states. I even sold my home in Florida while I was in Paris without incurring outrageous international call fees. All thanks to Lingo!
