Voicestick i2Bridge & forwarding - how well does it work

[Bossman]

Unfortunately this is still a problem. Has happened at least 5 times within the last month. I Just did a test call to the UK that never connected. I was dinged for 120 minutes (2 hours)! Sometimes it's 60 minutes and other times it's 120 minutes.

What this usually does is put my account balance in Negative. Essentially deactivating the forwarding and the phone temporarily. At least until I contact voicestick. This problem makes the forwarding almost unusable! Since I will not know when this happens, I just will not be receiving any calls. The caller will also hear a message that the phone is inactive. Heck! The first call can potentially wipe out the entire credit and any other calls just won't go through.

Has anyone here used Kall8 to forward to international numbers, and how reliable is it?

It is a shame because voicestick seems to be a good thing...

As opposed to using voicestick, my calls can be forwarded from my home landline using verizon & AT&T and this absolutely never happens....the only problem with AT&T a one minute call to a UK mobile is 30¢/minute...with voicestick it's 16¢ and recently the connection via voicestick has become very very good and the caller hears a message please wait while we connect your call.

I just find it hard to believe this is a problem that can't be resolved.
