I've had Phone Power since 2009, never had much trouble so I went for another 2 years. Way cheaper than Comcast bundles or other VOIP comms. Now, Phonepower doesn't seem to exist. Can't reach their website, my phone doesn't work either. No calls in or out.

I have used VOIP phones for years.  I used Sunpower until they went TU.  Then I got PhonePower.  I was using Quest phoneservice and dialup internet.  I switched to cable broadband and VOIP and saved cash -- better all the way around.  However, I've not found VOIP without it's problems.
 
It does require a 2 year pre-payment, which I lost part of to Sunpower's demise.  The phone quality isn't stellar by any stretch, but still serves as a phone though.  I'm uncertain to the 911 functions as we've never had to call -- knock on wood.  I wouldn't totally rely on it thoughy.
 
\When I switched to Phonepower they wouldn't change my caller ID name to my name, because they said I didn't have proof that I owned it, though it was our number for 2 years with Sunpower.  So when I call people they look at the caller ID and it says Mohamid Khan -- my real name is more like Dan T.  Oh well, it got to be a joke after awhile.
 
SO, if you like to get cheap, mediocre and somewhat undependable phone service under the wrong name -- Phonepower is the place for you.  HOWEVER, if you want to shoot more for something cheap, yet dependable -- keep on looking.  And post it when you find it and I'll go there two.
