Tag : Caller ID Corded Phone
Like other consumer VoIP services, the service includes an in-homegateway that connects to the Internet and can be used with astandard corded or cordless phone. However, unlike other VoIPproviders, customers must buy the T-Mobile @Home HiPort™Wireless Router for $49.99 and sign a two-year service agreement;early termination fees also apply. The router also supports theT-Mobile Unlimited HotSpot Calling service (formerly known asHotSpot @Home Talk Forever Mobile) also priced at an additional $10a month. (For information on the HotSpot service, please see ournewsletter on the topic here .)
When we wrote about the @Home service market trials in Dallas and Seattle earlier this year we questioned the affectof the offer on competing landline plans: According to an internalT-Mobile study in these test markets, virtually all customers (97%)who had a traditional landline phone service reported dropping thatservice since adopting T-Mobile @Home. Looks to us like T-Mobilemay have a winning value proposition for its wireless customers whoaren’t quite ready to “cut the cord” on theirhome phone.
