The Vonage app is a seperate plan/subscription from current Vonage users monthly plan. That gives it a BIG thumbs down from me IMHO.

The only real need for it would be if you needed to call long distance overseas; otherwise, why not use your included AT&T plan for domestic calling and as your "home" number?

This is probably because they want to monitor activty on the app and bandwith associated it, otherwise, I really don't see WHY they would do a seperate charge especially if you already have an account. Any other thoughts why they would? - BLUEBOY

No Need For Vonage Mobile or Vonage World Mobile

If one is already subscribed to Vonage World, it can easily be extended to any cell phone (regular and smart phones) without subscribing to Vonage Mobile or Vonage World Mobile, thus saving $14.99 per month. Cellular minutes are not used if ones cell phone carrier is AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile (free unlimited calls to and from favorite numbers) or Sprint/Nextel (free incoming calls). Just install a Call Bridge/Call Back switch on the Vonage World line and place unlimited air time and long distance calls to 60 countries and even share with family, friends, associates, etc. Also the use of the Vonage World line is not restricted to USA residents only. Land lines and some cell phones in the 60 countries can also place the same unlimited calls.
