T-Mobile Unveils Residential VoIP Phone Service

Mobile telephone service giant, T-Mobile, has landed on the VoIP telephone scene. As of today, the company plans to offer VoIP telephone service for residential users at a price of only $10 per month. The catch, however, is that you must be a T-Mobile cell service customer in order to be eligible for T-Mobile@Home digital phone VoIP service. On the surface, T-Mobile offering VoIP service at such a low price seems like a steal, but if you were to end up subscribing to their digital phone service, you would end up shelling out more cash than you originally thought.

The first cost associated with T-Mobile@Home, not including the low $10/month cost of the service, is that you would have to purchase a $49.99 router which connects your landline phone to your broadband connection. The second cost you would encounter is the monthly price of your broaband Internet connection. Since T-Mobile@Home uses broadband connectivity to make phone calls, you would have pay for a broadband connection. Many broadband providers offer a discount if you also subscribe to their digital phone service, and you would lose this discount if you went with T-Mobile@Home instead of your cable provider's VoIP service.

So if you are already a T-Mobile customer and are looking to try VoIP telephone service, then T-Mobile@Home might seem like a good bet. If you are not a T-Mobile customer, however, you would be better served going with a dedicated VoIP service provider that doesn't require you to be a cellular customer in order to receive the service…..I recomend Voip.com for a better residential Voip service.
