its kinda tricky clicking through the various voipo sites looking to sign up for a service or paying a bill pages, just a suggestion that may attract more clients is securing the bill payment site with a McAfee rating or better business bureau (BBB) symbol, there are so many fly by night company's online now. im thinking about signing up for the fax service but entering credit card info has me nervous.
I almost started laughing, but thought better of it. I recently saw a page that belonged to thieves on which such symbols were displayed. They merely stole the symbols and displayed them. Doesn't really mean much; I certainly don't trust web symbols.Quote:

Better yet, trust me! ;)
Or, me... They also accept PayPal if that is better for you.Quote:

thanks for the replies, i'm just trying to suggest that voipo may get more customers if the payment and signup sites where affiliated somehow
eg: https://www.bbb.org/online/consumer/...D=105120114553
i didnt realize that clicking a fraudulent copied and pasted symbol would link to BBB as the site above
They can make it whistle Dixie at the same time they display a fake page if they want.
VOIPo is currently using an accounting/billing system developed for an earlier project that was previously proven reliable in that environment. I understand that they have a new system under 'final' development in house, but do not expect to have the comprehensive testing completed and the integrated system ready for implementation before years end... all things subject to change in the magical world of software development. ;)
Should it be that difficult to get rid of the spammers?
It's really a nuisance.
Wondering if Captcha is being used for guests here?
Regarding security, such symbols may help even if the security savvy know the difference. Also, any awards/reviews/press releases will go a long way for those unfamiliar with VOIPo. VOIPo needs an "In The News" link.
I would be very surprised if there are no articles yet?
