Vonage Loses Subscribers but Does Anyone Care? [View article]
Hello,
Like everybody else I have been using Vonage since 2003 and I am quite happy with Vonage. The only additional point I wanted to add was that it would be interesting to understand the Vonage Subscriber composition. Vonage is very popular with the immigrant community because by taking two lines (as long as the home country can support the internet band-width of 256KB) the subscriber can cut his overseas telephone bills to almost negligible.
So there is a catch 22, if lot of the 2.6 millions subscribers represent actually a single user ordering two lines to support his overseas family then the real number will be lower. But if they get bought out then the big Telecom companies have opportunity not in grabbing current Vonage subscribers but if they decide to start overseas operations they will also get the loyal customers overseas.
