We all paid money to get our MJ. So why are we also being shown advertising? Anyone come up with a hack to get rid of it? |

What was the procedure for overcoming this on a PC? Maybe I can figure out the equivalent on a Mac. |

Honestly now? You also agreed to terms of service that stated that as PART OF WHAT YOU WERE PAYING FOR, YOU'D BE SHOWN ADS.
Because seriously $20/year means you really paid for unlimited phone calls for a year. Yeah.
Grow up. Fine. If you don't want to see the soft phone, that's fine. I dig that. Post here, and discuss ways to get rid of it, or not use it, or hide it, or whatever. But don't be a douche trying to justify that by saying you "paid for it". You paid for a service. You accepted the TOS of the service when you signed on. And it's not like they "hid" it in there.

I have no problem with ads, but they only advertise for a product that I've already purchased. That really doesn't make sense. Why aren't they doing something with third party ads to subsidize the service?

Maybe it's because they're too busy providing superior customer service. |
