When I logged into my vonage account I noticed that the Terms of Service [ToS] has been recently updated. One thing that caught my eye was the number of minutes you could use each month before getting flagged as abusive. Like many others, I don’t read the fine print. Reasons for that vary from being lazy to unable to understand legalese. I started checking all “unlimited” services I had and found that pretty much every service had some kind of ToS which limits the use of the service.
This practice is at best deceptive marketing. When i signed up for this service I really thought unlimited is unlimited. Apparently, I am wrong.
Skype has been more forthcoming than Vonage about their Acceptable Usage Policy (AUP). You can see it clearly when you try to sign up. Now, what happens if you violate these policies? I don’t know and I haven’t found anyone who violated the policies and got a huge bill or got their service terminated.
