magicJack and magicJack Plus Support, Reviews, FAQs and Tricks

If you still have your outside phone line coming into your house from your previous provider, your 911 service may still work. Mine does. You can also use an old cell phone that no longer is connected with a provider. I will be using my cell phone.

Went to my bookmark for this site today and it took me to Dan's page with his daughter, who is now probably 20 something.

I signed up for the GVJack App yesterday on a free trial. It was very easy to install and I am trying it on an XP machine and a Windows 7 machine. So far it is working good, I had some beeps, but went to the instructions how to stop them, and it seems to have helped. I have had a Google number for a ...

@notdeadyet, Your link still works for me and I don't pay extra, YET! I have 3 MJ's and I keep one of them forwarded at all times.

The following is from the magicjack site FAQ's:

YES. magicJack offers complimentary Call Waiting.

To use Call Waiting with magicJack and magicJack PLUS:

@nailgunner, Thanks, your link http://my.magicjack.com/call-forwarding.html worked for me, I have 3 MJ's and one of them I keep transferred all the time. I am sure it is just a matter of time before Dan starts charging for call forwarding.

Just like Frankfone said this statement is on the MJ site:
To enable call forwarding, if available, enter the phone number you want
the magicJack to forward to in the “Number to Forward Calls To”. Set “Call
Forwarding Status” to ON, and follow the prompts to checkout.

I just had the following chat:

Please wait for a site operator to respond.

You are now chatting with 'Jaclyn'

Jaclyn: Hello, how may I help you?

Jaclyn: May I know if you where did you encounter that ...

I can't believe they are now charging for call forwarding....that stinks Dan! What's next?!?

This is from the MJ site:

In the Currently installed programs box, click magicJack, and ...

Both my MJ's quit working too. They are back up now. Hopefully they are upgrading.....NAH!

@greenman, That is helpful info, but it only shows the calls dialed and received if you have the MJ plugged into the computer.

The call log will only be displayed if you are plugged into a computer. If you are plugged into the router, you have to use your phone system features.

@nailgunner: We do agree....I would never go against a MagicJack Sensei!!

@nailgunner: I agree, I thought that's what I said.

They will not let you transfer years from a regular MJ to a MJ+, and I asked them if you could transfer years from a regular MJ to another regular MJ, and they said "no, that it could only be transferred to an unregistered product". This is a quote from their FAQ about what you are asking "To ...

Comcast works for me on both my MJ plugged into the computer and my MJ+ plugged into my router. Although they do need some competition.

Thanks a lot SPC.

homlo6 I would try the chat/help, if that doesn't work, return it before the 30 days are up, and order another one. Or try to register on a friends computer.

I have 2 regular MJ's and they work fine plugged into the computer. I bought a plus in October 2011 when they came out, and like a lot of others it worked fine until February, and then started dropping calls. I have changed routers, modems, longer usb cables, and still have dropped calls. It works ...

I have my old one plugged into the computer, and my new plus in the router. Both are working fine. Thumbs up!
