Does anyone use Vonage for the unlimited long distance to dial into a hospital or clinic system? If so, how does it work and what is the price? Do they allow you to use it for an 8-hour day?
TIA

Unlimited long distance...
I know it's been asked before here, and I am searching the archives for info, but wondering if any new feedback about good, cheap, unlimited long distance plans that won't hassle you about using it for transcription, about 6000 to 8000+ minutes per month? Oh, in the California area.
Thanks!
Does anyone use SBC for unlimited long distance
for transcribing? What do you pay if I might ask? Do they hassle you about using it fulltime? Looking into it before I call and inquire about.

What are the best ULD companies and plans out there that are MT friendly? I've heard horror stories! TIA

I imagine this has been discussed, so please excuse me, but can anyone steer me in the right direction for a good unlimited long distance service? I have an offer that uses a C-phone and unlimited long distance- I haven't a clue. I appreciate any information. Thanks.

Check out ACC Business on the internet. I have been using them for 6 years. It's the small business service from AT&T and less than 3 cents a minute.
Try it, you'll thank me!

I have Primus for my residential calls and I hate trying to deal with them because all their people are in India so I would rather not call them. Could you email me specifically what a bill from them for monthly service might be? Your typical work week.

I knew it was coming. AT&T finally sent me my letter letting me know that I have 5 days left of ULD. What companies out there allow us to do transcription with their ULD? Help!!

I recently joined the Cox network, but if I were to get work over the phone lines, what would be the best way to go without paying an arm and a leg for dictation and being on the phone all day. I am sure Cox would not allow me to just stay online all day - I'm not sure how to even get started. I don't even know how to get an FTP or if it's safe? I would only take dictation from Eastern Standard or Daylight time - no 3 hour delays like the other time zones. Help!

Hi, I had the same thing happen at AT&T. I still have them, but switched my account to a business account. Now I have no problems. It is actually cheaper this way and I have two lines. Another benefit is that if there are phone problems you are first on the list for repair service because you have a business account. Call them back and ask for this service.

AGGHH!! Can anyone assist me with a question in regards to unlimited long distance through Verizon? I am new to at-home transcription. I have been hired by a service under IC status. The service requires unlimited long distance. I have two questions. Will I be on the phone my entire shift of 8 hours a day? The other question is about Verizon unlimited long distance, which is what I would be using as this is the phone service I have now. I have read on the forum that they have Verizon unlimited long distance for $20 to $30 a month. I thought I had this set up with Verizon, only to have them send me a notification letter indicating that I had not chose a plan, and that I would be charged 40 cents a minute! Now, that is approximately $1000 a month -- YIKES!!! I called and was told that I would be charged anything over their cap of 5000 minutes. If I am on the phone my full shift I will be at approximately 9600 minutes a month, leaving me 4600 minutes to pay. Does this sound right?
Does MDI-MD still require the mt to have unlimited Long Distance? nm
Thanks
Best unlimited long distance companies?
What's a good monthly rate (or average)? TIA
Unlimited long distance...I know this has been discussed before...but..sm
just received letter from AT&T informing me that I cannot use their unlimited plan for what I am using it for, and if I continue to do so, they will charge me a per minute rate and/or remove the service. I need to know where to go for an unlimited long distance package for transcription. Please post and let me know what you all use. Without unlimited, what the heck are we supposed to do? What does everyone else do? Any help and info would be appreciated. Thank you
Just got call from AT&T unlimited long distance and sm....
even though I talked with them extensively about this over 1 month ago, they still don't understand why the "trigger alarm" keeps going off on my unlimited plan account since I wasn't using the phone line for "internet" usage. I dial into somewhere using a lanier and get the voice for dictation. I do all the transcription over DSL. They haven't put a block on me yet, but I guess what I am wondering here is....."IS THERE A TRICK" to keep the trigger alarm from going off?? What is everyone else doing about this because apparently they are not going away and I need a place to go if/when they cut me off. TIA
Best Unlimited Long Distance Plan? sm
What is the best company to use for unlimited long distance for transcription. What happens if your long distance plan is for residential and you are using this line for business? Apparently, this company checks the account if you use over 5,000 minutes per month and changes your account to business. Any advice is appreciated.
sort-of unlimited long distance
Most "unlimited" long distance plans are not really unlimited if you look at the fine print. Most cap you at around 5000 minutes a month unless you can prove that your calls were all to your dad in Toledo or your Aunt Tilly in Tampa, in other words, not business related. You're just asking for trouble if you are a high-volume MT and you sign on for one of these. The only things I have found so far that give me true unlimitd are a VoIP like Vonage (internet phone) or phone service through your cable company, if they offer it, but make sure it is unlimited local AND long distance.

Unlimited long distance in Maine. Please see message.
Hi all! There was a thread not far down on this board about unlimited long distance, and a few companies were mentioned, like Verizon, etc. I found out today that not all of these services are offered in Maine, where I live.
Does anyone know of any unlimited long distance services at reasonable prices in Maine?
ALSO, I know we have AT&T unlimited long distance here in Maine. Does anyone know if AT&T is one of the "good" companies? That is, can I use a C-phone with them and not be penalized?
Thanks so much for any help anyone can give!
Can I use AT&T unlimited home long distance with a c-phone?
Hi all! I was wondering if anyone here using a C-phone uses AT&T home unlimited long distance? If so, do you have any problems with them? Thanks for any help you can give!
Chc- that uses Vonage- do you use 800# or long distance? nm

Any unlimited long distance plans for high-volume
I use 7000+ minutes a month but I know that most LD companies now will dump your unlimited plan if they find you using more than 5000 or if they find you are using it for transcription. Has anyone had one of these plans for a while now without problems with high-volume calling? Which one?
Unlimited Long Distance + C-phone, small company needs MT
I currently need an experienced MT (at least three years - actual medical typing) to cover a 2 doctor account. Very simple dictation - SOAP note format. This account is looking for another doctor, so that could add in. Currently, very small amount of dictation - approximately 800-1300 lines total per week. 24 hour turn around.
If you have a c-phone and have unlimited long distance, please send me your resume + 2 references for people you have actually typed for. Start rate 8cpl (65 character). This is an IC position.
I am the owner of a small transcription company in Virginia - have had stable accounts and great MT's for over 13 years. THANK YOU!!!
Anyone use Cox Communications for unlimited long distance? Just wondering how their service is.
There aren't too many reasonable choices here in the Midwest, unless you know of some out there. Thanks for the input!
Try Packet 8 - Unlimited long distance phone - flat 22.05 per month.

ATTENTION all MTSO and hospital...please get 1-800 numbers...UNLIMITED LONG DISTANCE is being canned
This is going to be a HUGE problem for everyone involved. The long distance companies are watching and they DO NOT LIKE what we do over their lines, so please, consider getting 1-800 numbers. You could possibly charge each MT a small amount each month to cover the bill. Seems like a logical way to go! What does everyone think?
Wow why so much I am only paying $54 with vonage for unlimited.
That is for the small business plan and I am unlimited.
Does anyone know of a truly unlimited long
distance plan that doesn't involve VoIP? I'm in the southeast. I have unlimited LD with BellSouth, but unlimited to them and unlimited to me isn't the same thing and I've heard about the nightmares others have had with the $500 phone bills.
I've googled and googled and not finding much information about reliable companies that may offer this.

MCI has a plan that you can add to your existing local plan. I've had it a while. When I got it, I it was $12.95 per month. I'm not sure if it's available in your area, they also have plans with local and long distance together at a pretty good rate.

Does anyone know of a good unlimited minutes long distance company?
SBC long distance
is intended for personal conversations. I believe if they find out it is for digital (computer) use they will try to back-bill you for the full charge from when you started using it. This hasn't happened to me personally, I heard this from someone. Just a heads-up.

My long distance is through my cable company, runs through the existing phone lines. It is unlimited, nationwide, and I haven't had any problems with it at all. If your cable company doesn't offer this, you can get Vonage or a similar VOiP (Voice over IP) program. They're inexpensive. The only thing I don't like about Vonage is that it involves hooking up a router to your cable modem, and you can only plug your phones into that router. Good luck!

I started last year with a very well known phone company and after 2 months they sent me a letter saying I was using it for computer and wanted to raise my rate $30 a month. Needless to say, i switched to another company.

I use MCI and love it! It's about $70 a month.
HELP with long distance!!!
 Anyone else with this problem? Was with MCI. Had 13,000 minutes for month. Said it was a fax line. NOT!!! Said it was internet. NOT!!!!. I am in North Carolina calling Illinois for my work. AT&T says anything over 5000 minutes is excessive and will not get service for business line. Any ideas? Desperate.

Try ACC Business, a division of AT&T. I have a resume business and have used them for over 10 years. It's less than 3 cents a minute. Check it out!

Have you considered Vonage. Depending on your internet speed (cable or DSL) and depending on the equipment that you have to use, from what I understand this can be used with just about any equipment. Check it out.

We use QWest and pay $20 + fees, tax, etc. I guess from what you all said that is good!
