FreedomVoice Negatives
- 2 leg charges – you are billed for both the incoming call a caller places to your toll-free number and the connection to your line.
- None of the packages include any minutes with the monthly charge. While you can pre-order minutes, their rate plan is not great –definitely their weakest point.
- They also charge for services that are included in their competitors standard packages including dedicated fax and fax-on-demand. Take a look at RingCentral or GotVmail as better options
