voip.ms - does it stop if balance zero?

[dghundt]

Reading voip.ms terms of service and account settings, it is not clear to me that when my balance goes to zero, my account will be disabled. I consider this an extra step in fraud protection.

And how about pbxiaf service Joe?

My one complaint with voip.ms was that they only computed balances once a call was completed. So... if you have a balance of $.10 and you left a call to a cruise ship off line for several hours...

Well, you get the idea. That's when we decided NOT to start reselling voip.ms service.

yikes, that's a problem.
Not that I'm leaving the phone off the hook, but it short circuits the 'no auto refill' fraud protection.

Hi

A2Billing updates the balance at the end of the call, and only allows you to make a call to the duration of the credit you have left.

So, there is a possibility of going into negative credit, but not usually by much, and only when there are simultaneous calls going on.

Simutaneous calls are only possible when you have been verified and is one of the reasons that we only allow one concurrent call on signup, and only open it up to simultaneous calls once we have verified you.

Yours

Joe

We use paypal for payments. This prevents auto refill.

great, good to hear.

(I use paypal too, but did not want to wind up with large negative charges.)

Hmmm. I never actually tested that scenario.
