So you've been feeling a little overwhelmed by all the information about VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) phone service in the media lately. Everything seems to indicate that this is the best way to make calls on the cheap, but again, with such a new technology it is hard to separate the real facts from the corporate propaganda.

The following represents some essential tips that every new VOIP customer should know.

Choose the Right Service Plan

Whether or not you save money with your VOIP phone is based entirely on the service plan you select. Choosing the plan that best meets you calling needs is important, because if you were to go over your allotted minutes, the cost would begin to rise quickly. Conversely, if you choose a plan with too many minutes, you are not to going to enjoy the most savings because you will end up overpaying each month. To help gauge which play is the right one, go back and look at your landline and cell phone bills from the past year. Pay special attention to the calls made from your home phone, or those made near your computer with your cell phone. By totaling these minutes, you will get a more accurate assessment of the VOIP plan that is perfect for you.

Selecting the Right Hardware

When it comes to VOIP hardware, not all boxes are created equal. Do your homework online to get information about customer satisfaction and durability about the devices. Also, some VOIP boxes come with extra features such as built in WI-FI connectivity and other capabilities. Make sure you get the most bang for your buck.

Making Sure you get all the "Extras"

Because VOIP is still a relatively new technology, providers are going to do everything they can to bring in new customers. That's a huge benefit for the new user because they will be in line for a variety of perks offered as incentives. These extras can include: - Free VOIP Box - Free calling - Introductory rates

More Tips about selecting a VOIP provider

- Beware activation fees that could be hidden in the "fine print" of your contract. Most companies are currently waiving their activation fees in an effort to bring in more customers.

- Make sure get a FREE VOIP box. With competition high, there's almost no reason you shouldn't get a free VOIP device with your new service.

- Ask around. If you've got friends who have VOIP service, ask their opinion about their current provider. You can also find plenty of customer reviews online, so do your homework!
