I had used this service provider 10 years ago with great results. Recently, I needed a new VoIP line so I tried to use them again. I have been greatly disappointed. They still had a great price point and signup was quick and easy... but .. that's it. For the past year I have had my service just stop working either from their proxy servers being down or finding they have not properly processed payment ( my bank confirmed ). Calling or emailing support is a waist of time, you will never get through or get a response. Their payment system is unreliable and if a payment is declined during their outage, they cut your service, it's automated with no grace period. This has now happened twice in one year. I now am trying to close the account but can not since the web site function to delete the account fails, i get a message to contact support... No response.... I have had to resort to having my bank stop charges from them.
Price not the lowest, but as in all VoIP you definitely get what you pay for. They are my first choice for trunking with the 5 SMB's we service for VoiP
We started working with IDT in 2016. They tout serving over 32 billion minutes annually and 4 route divisions to choose from. The route divisions are irrelevant however, here I will explain why: The level of service/quality you *actually* receive depends on how greedy your Account Manager is, and the genie behind the curtain that changes up the routes to accommodate their desired margins. The end result of course is route instability and frequent calls to your support desk from angry customers reporting issues ranging from False Answer Service to calls not completing to legitimate destinations and wondering why they are paying for Platinum service only to receive problems typically associated with Silver-grade routes. With IDT we'd literally pass weeks at a time without issues, and suddenly a range of issues with many different destinations arise at the same time. We submit the ticket and the issue would eventually be resolved, but only after waiting > 24 hours for a response. In the IDT Express portal you are able to select which routing division, but in the end IDT simply does not honor your selection, and will route your traffic over the routes they choose behind the scene. It's really a pointless set up they offer. Go with Tata, NTT or BT if your customers' satisfaction is paramount.
