This allows you to save cost on line rental while getting the same or even more features than with your traditional analogue telephone phone

Yes you can.
Mobile Number Portability has been available between the mobile networks for a few years already and Geographic Number Portability is also available between selected Fixed Line networks. Switch Telecom prides itself in being a market leader and has been one of the first operators to offer this.
Yes, but we would strongly recommend contacting us to discuss which equipment works best.
If you have bought a Easynet supplied device, then the VoIP phones are automatically configured. As a result, you will be ready to make and receive calls as soon as the device is connected to a broadband connection.
If you have your own device we will assist in configuring it using our secure auto provisioning system. We do not guarantee that we will be able to auto-provision every device. However, we have standard setup procedures that are easily followed and which apply to the majority of technology.
We offer both Pre-Paid (Advance) and Post-Paid (Arrears) payment options.
On Post-Paid billing the invoice is automatically generated and emailed on the 1st of each month in respect of that month’s service fee and the previous month’s calls.
Payment is collected strictly via debit order three working days later.
Subscribers who have elected to pay in advance will need to pay via EFT or by Credit Card on a strictly pre-paid basis. Airtime top-ups purchased using a Credit Card on the Switch Telecom Client Zone are immediate whereas EFT payments are subject to bank clearance delays.
These call charges are largely controlled by the service provider that people who phone you are using. Under normal circumstances they should be similair to standard calling rates.
