From personal experience I attest Magic Jack is a complete Scam. The phone # on any credit card statement never gets answered. There is no support. RMA never gets credit back to your account. You have to hound and chase Magic Jack and they avoid any accountability. Magic Jack takes your money nad runs.
Yeah I just renewed with Magic Jack-Wagons. they hit me with the seperate dollar charge also. It use to be $19.95 now it's $29.95 plus some other crap to get it to $31.XX something, THEN another dollar. And why do they make it next to impossible to find out when your subscription runs out? Azzoles
My magic jack seems to stop and start my voice if I have anything running on my computer. My relatives say that it sounds like Obama without a teleprompter.
OMG !! im reuping my service tonight .... damn 21.00 bucks for a years service what a scam!! LOL who cares? there charging you a dollar wooo cable companys put in BS charges all the time and there a lot more than a dollar.
@JDK1981 I am not sure what you mean by a format. When I bought this POS it is MJ+. they advertise that you don't even have to use your PC to use it, just plug it into a electrical receptacle i.e. wall plug.
I even went out and bought a new AT&T cordless phone to accommodate it.
Once connected the communication is choppy and broken and one never knows when you are going to loose your connection.
@J4vandf hmmm, i ment a format for a Fresh format of your comp, but if its a MJ+ thats not the issue at all.. what internet service you have? DSL or cable? how many MBPS? Mine is the old MJ that needs a computer. I have a Security computer that 24 hrs Records cameras on a DVR card so i just use that comp and MJ and my phone is on 24 HRs a day. Ive noticed its is a lil bit choppy at times calling SOME cellphones, but to a landline its 100% clear.
@JDK1981 I have DSL is there some kind or program or tweaking one has to do or install some kind of program to make these POS work? I am very frustrated because MJ+ is supposed to work with just a common electrical receptacle. That is a pipe dream, even though they charge you xtra for the MJ+. Somebody is getting rich and millions are not getting any service. Got any ideas? would sure love to hear them.
@johnnyohness did you call your DSL company about it and ask if the VOIP will work? I know like verizon has a VOIP, maybe they have it blacked or something? I mean i hate verizon all they do is pick your pocket and send you a bill for it.
any upcoming transaction debits $1 until the transaction goes through. If the transaction does not go thru, then it is put back in your account. This happened back in June. Do you have an update?
Dude, that dollar will come off when the transaction goes thru. Many companies do this to make sure the card is still active. You make a video over a $1.00 charge?? Haven't you ever purchased over the net before??
Oh c'mon man. This is LOLable. The utilities can be used for tax purposes also.
I called Oomla and they told me I'd be paying 30 dollars a year on top of the 200, basically for tax. So this is nothing.
I've had MJ for 3 years now and loved it. I just basically got 2 years for 19.95 when resubing this time around (of yeah, add the dollar 20.95). Such a rip off /sarcasm
So true BUYER BEWARE....Recently attempted to purchase a Magic Jack Plus...They charged me 85.00 by time the shipping and extra charge for secure shipping... I did not receive the product.. Contacted Customer Service and they were so rude and unconcerned... They refuse to refund my money... BUYER BEWARE
I ordered the Magic Jack Plus....because want to use MY HOME NUMBER. After I bought it, they tell me my number CAN"T be transferred! I have had this number for 30 years and have moved it from ATT to vonage to Optimumvoice..,.which is VOIP so not sure why MY number can't be transferred. They said to try later..... oops
I'm in the U.S., I call anywhere in the U.S. even to Canada and never pay 1 penny more than the once annual $19.95 they re-bill my card for every December 1st.
For me this is the best investment I ever made.
I'm thinking about getting the newer 'M.J. Plus'.
Re: the "$1.00 pending" charge... that falls off, it's commonly done with many companies when you first buy something from them.
@Chambelona59 I have Magic Jack Plus have had it about 2 months when I received it I even bought a new 100.00 AT&T cordless phone to go with it. What a pathetic investment it has been. It is totally useless. When making a call the connection is so full of static and you risk getting your call dropped at any second. How did you managed to get yours to work? I'm completely disgusted with my purchase. Customer service for MJ is practically nonexistent.
They have disconnected my service when I tried to port my number over and will not get me reconnected..... I have 4 yrs remaining. I am reporting them to BBB to try to get refund.
Dude, $1.00 is pending!!! SO Im guessing you know that it will either drop off or it will post as the amount you selected when you tried to renew it.. Post a video of the magicjack posted with the amount!!!
i have this for 3 years and never had a problem.when i do have some problem,they always fix the issue threw the internet.i also was able to transfer my old number.thx
Thank you very much i have a quistion say if u have magicjack and u dont want it no more how would u cancel it and please make a video about it if u can thank you very much
Thanks!.Yesterday I had similar scenario. I tried to renew contract for a year, went through 1 year renewal process, but all I saw YOUR ORDER CAN NOT BE PROCESSED this time. Tried 3 times. What the .... Why ? I was customer for 2 year and wanted to renew for a year it didn't. So I went through their chat process and was given a shocker. they said, I pending charges of $46.95 so unless I pay that I can't renew? Not true! I had paid for MJ in full and this is BS! I also see $1 pending in my bank
how long did you have it unused bfor you resighned cus if it was over a month then thay wil do this. and you need to call them or chat with them online thay will fix this its a isue in thare system.

@JDK1981 I have had Magic Jack for 2 months Still have never got it to work worth a damn.
What a total rip off. What a POS it is. I will never renew it ever because it doesn't work in the first place.
Someone needs to start a class action suit against them.
Don't ever buy this POS crap, it is totally worthless.
