>Hi,

>Could you recommend a VOIP company, for porting my business phone number? For home phone we use Basictalk (VOIP) which works pretty well. But I understand, from reading online reviews, that with Basictalk I would have a limit of 3000 minutes per month. I would prefer not to be limited for business line.

Have you contacted Basictalk about their plans, rather than reading online reviews? A 6- or even 3-month old review may be completely out-of-date due to plan changes. Maybe they have a business plan with more minutes.

3000 minutes is 50 hours. There are fewer than 25 business days per month, so that's over 2 hours per day. What happens if you exceed that? Are you cut off? More common is you get charged extra, which may be OK for the few (?) times you go over.

Most ISPs offer VoIP "home phone" service at a reasonably-priced add-on to your Internet service. I'd look into that first; one thing to avoid is contracting with a 3rd party (i.e. different from your ISP) for VoIP, because if something goes wrong, you get your ISP and that 3rd party pointing fingers at one another.
Regards. Al
