I was using HOT's 077 number for four years. Fax works and the call quality was excellent. However, the tech support are idiots and there were a lot of times when we had no phone service, sometimes days. We ditched them for Bezeq a year ago. More reliable, better tech support, negligible price difference. Note that we do not have a television, so the package deal was only telephone and internet. -- Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com http://gibberish.co.il Please CC me if you want to be sure that I read your message.
