magicJack and magicJack Plus Support, Reviews, FAQs and Tricks

I have asked several times whether the MJ or MJ+ dongle will work with Magic Jack after MagicFeatures (MF) is installed if you decide in the 7 days that you don't want MF. I still have no answer, so I can't risk the trial.

Now it's clear that MF is only useful to connect my Google Voice to my ...

I had the same curiousity as I see above. The announcement is in the GMAIL blog and gas not been cross-linked to the GV blog. May be a little funny business going on there. But it still works free for me and it's 2013.
In re the taxes and fees on VOIP - Magic Jack and NetTalk both charge them. But ...

Wattage shouldn't matter. Since the range of resistance was 20k to 1m, the 100k is probably not critical enough to spend extra for the +/- 1% vs 10%. You can also buy shrink-tubing that will cover the soldered (don't just twist) connections and the body of the resistor.
The resistor dampens voltage ...

IMHO, this is not news. Magic Jack is the epitome of a foreign company doing business in America. Customer Service sucks, product is OK and cheap. The ToS is so vague that it allows them to do almost anything they want with all customer rights waived after the initial 30 days. NetTalk touts their ...

[quote="Gene45"]So what do you think it means, aside from the fact there is a sale?

A new technology will be out soon and they want to dispose of the old ones?[/quote]

I think it means Borislow sees the writing on the wall. MJ's days are numbered. Not to worry, though, your new vendor can port the ...

I upgraded from MJ to MJ plus and connected the Plus directly into my router. Now I don't get the MJ App screen that shows my incoming and outgoing call history that I got with my old MJ.
That was a "nice to have". Any suggestions other than plugging MJ plus into my computer USB ...

NetTalk DUO call forwarding works. But it rings the NetTalk phone seven times before it rings the target phone. They have one chance to get it right before I cancel NetTalk and wait for Google-phone's pricing statement. Their call forwarding works on the first ring. And there's no device involved at ...

[quote="formeat"][quote="LessImpressed"]I understand that if Obama loses the election, he has a very good shot at becoming the head of the MJ Customer Relations division.[/quote]

I just called Customer Relations and Mitt Romney answered. He said, "Corporations are people, my friend," and then ...

I don't know who you folks are if you're not connected with MJ. If you offer a working service, more power to you. I assume your software lives either in the SoftPhone program or the MJ+. I have no idea whether you charge for it or not.

What I do know is that MJ has violated a trust. My response ...

I'm not going to bore anybody by pasting in the two support chats that got me where I am now. Up to October, 2012, I was a happy Magic Jack Standard user. That started in March of 2009. I cut the AT&T wires, plugged my Standard's output phone wire into a wall jack and the MJ Standard into a powered ...

I'm one of those pissed-off long-time MJ users that found out call forwarding went away. I found out by upgrading to MJ+. Oh, CF won't be back in the forseeable future, and if/when it DOES come back, they're going to charge for it. I understand that if Obama loses the election, he has a very good ...

SteveHC -
I have tried every iteration of the address that I can come up with, including the link from the saved chat. None of them work.
This reminds me of the Obama tax issue. I'm gonna vote him out, too.

Me again. I'm curious now about a couple of things.
Folks (including me) are bitching and moaning about an ANNUAL fee of $4.95 or $19.95 for 100 or 500 MONTHLY minutes of call forwarding. Nobody seems to be complaining that they upped their basic annual fee for the license to use the device from $19 ...

I am hot and cold about this. I've been using MJ for years. I upgraded to MJ+ when they decided (finally) to allow prepaid years and vanity number to be transferred. The conversion was quick and easy (except for a couple of brain checks on my part) and I bought a new year and number for my old MJ ...
