I contacted them about their overseas service, they assured me (more than once and on more than one phone call) that I would pay the going rate per country. Instead they went through a ship and charged me an outrageous sum of Thousands of dollars. I refused to pay. I have perfect credit, but willing to take this hit on it. I am careful to have everything in place and check and double check their policies. When they refused to provide anything in writing, I should have run. Glad to see they are out of business!!!!!
This is what I got via email Zingotel Inc has shutdown business. Most of its servers are already down and your service might get interrupted any minute now. Miracle Telecom is pleased to offer Zingotel customers with a special plan. To sign-up now visit https://www.miracletel.com/index.php/signup Now.

We will be able to migrate you to Miracle Telecom in less than one hour of sign-up ( Order will be processed during normal business hours in Eastern Time Zone) Now Maricle telcom also claimed in the email to have 6 years experience in the voip field the website was created Feb 7 2009 I belive that this company is just zingotel under a new name they worked out a way to get out from under their debts as a new company I do know that people from zingotel work at Miracle Telcom Now I used zingotel for 3 years it was never great but usually worked ok I may try this "new company" but i am not sure yet
The worst product, worst customer service and completely false advertising. My Magic Jack had a warranty but it stopped working within the warranty period. They don't even have a phone number to call, everything is by email and they don't reply. After waiting for months with no response from them I contacted BBB, Attorney General and TV station and even then they did not honor warranty. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. Bunch of thieves, thugs and crooks.
I have many magicJacks in my office and they are some of the worst phone systems of all. The other day I renewed my services on a couple devices and they took my money out of my bank but never turn on my services. I called and spoke to some people in the Philippines but never got anything handled. Finally today they sent me an email and stated that due to Rule 6 I had violated the fraud rules. No clue what that could mean other than they do not like that I am asking about my money. They said they were not able to work with the magicJack device they sold me due to this and made no mention of returning my money. I filed a claim at my bank to get my money back and filed a complaint with the FCC on these people. Will also file a complaint with my States Attorney Generals office. It is people like this that makes it so hard to trust anyone anymore. and most all your company has an out by just saying it was a fraud they believed happen when they are the frauds themselves. I do not recommend this company to anyone anywhere.
