Most VoIP providers today offer residential plans from $20 to $30 per month plus a $20 to $50 activation fee. Business VoIP plans range from $40 to $60 per month plus activation. We recommend that price should not necessarily be the main requirement in selecting a VoIP provider’s service. Even if you end up paying $30 to $50 per month you are most likely still saving a significant amount of money when compared to your current land line service.

More important than price may be reliability. Especially if your VoIP service replaces your current land line service. A VoIP providers service must be as reliable as your landline service. If not price doesn’t matter.



iTELConnect is an all-inclusive communications provider that bundles local calling, long distance, and internet connectivity to help businesses save on their overall communications costs. Unlike other business VoIP providers, iTELConnect provides unparalleled quality of service over their advanced nationwide IP network.
