How it worksMost free phone services come through your PC so the phone quality is only as good as your speaker system. Some of these phone systems are not very user-friendly, and you have to put up with some hassles and other kinks. If the internet provider goes down, so does the free phone service. If you must have a phone service always available, consider a cell phone or something else that is more reliable.Several other landline phone systems are available with considerable lower rates. The one thing you have to check out is if the cost goes up after the initial start up period. Either way, your phone bill may disappear entirely, or lower significantly.
