What Is Magic Jack?
Magic Jack is a voice over IP service that has soared in popularity in the USA and Canada over recent years. Essentially, it’s a ‘dongle’ like device that plugs into your computer, with a standard phone plugging in to the other end of the device. There’s an annual charge of $19.95 in order to use the service but this includes absolutely unlimited calls to any US or Canadian telephone number.
Voice over IP first became popular with consumers through Skype. However, since then a number of alternative services have become available, with varying levels of success. Perhaps much of Magic Jack’s success can be attributed to the fact it comes with a host of facilities that other providers charge extra for.
An example of these additional facilities is the telephone number. Magic Jack users get a phone number included in their service at no extra cost in order to enable them to receive incoming calls. There’s an element of choice in the number too, given that users can decide which area code etc they would like to have. On top of the number, there is a voicemail service, call waiting service and caller ID all included in the annual fee. This is a pretty rich list of features for an inclusive fee, particularly when compared to a number of the alternative services out there.
A common question about Magic Jack is that of International calls. You can indeed make them from a Magic Jack phone but they are not included in the annual fee. However, the costs per minute are much lower than that of a standard telephone service, making it a good option for users who make frequent international calls.
So to sum it up simply, Magic Jack is just a voice over IP service. However, its list of included extras and its great price are helping the service to continue to soar in popularity.
