When the service worked it was pretty good. When they did have problems their support staff we next to impossible to reach. Once I called their 800 support line only to find that it was also down. My DID was down due to the fact that their entire network was down...including their own lines. Eventually I switched to other providers. Nufone is very good. Clearpath is excellent. Both are a little difficult to reach, but have very reliable networks. I'm also using vocee these days but have not put too much traffic that way as yet.

Bill Michaelson wrote: Just curious... Is there anyone out there who has given this outfit money and actually received any service from them? I have accounts with roughly 5 providers, with sixtel being one of the primary ones. I have been using them since 2/2/2005. While there have been occasional glitches, some severe, for the most part their service works extremely well. For a long time, the biggest complaint was receiving DID's in a timely manner, or at all. Relatively recently, they ran a promotion for vanity DID's, and I signed up for two of them, bother of which were provisioned within the time that they claimed they would, and both work well. That said, of all of the providers I use, the most rock-solid in terms of availability and quality is NuFone. I know many people have complained on the lists before about their "service", but I have found their responsiveness to be excellent, so not everyone is getting the same results. They are the most expensive of the services I subscribe to (still very cheap!!!), but they are also the most reliable. To be more specific, all of my _wife's_ calls get routed through NuFone, because when they weren't, I never heard the end of it ;-) ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

We're using them for incoming calls (we've got 1 normal number and an 888 number) and have been very happy - quality has been fine. Haven't need to contact support so can't comment on that.

I have been using sixtel for outgoing calls since 2/2/2005. Call quality has been very high (uLaw), and availability of a channel nearly perfect. Thankfully, I have never had to open a trouble ticket. A buddy of mine has been waiting for a vanity 800 DID for 3+ months though :-(. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
