SunRocket Agent gives you one more provider to switch to!
I reported that Packet8 or 8X8 is ready to take on failed SunRocket customers. But now those 200000 customers have one more choice. I found this report on red herring by Cassimir Medford.
"The agent for Net-phone company SunRocket, which folded suddenly this week leaving 200,000 subscribers in the lurch, has named the preferred companies that will provide VoIP service to SunRocket’s former customers. But experts say the scope of the transfer is unprecedented and could take weeks or even months.
Management firm Sherwood Partners said Packet8 and Unified Communications will take on the former SunRocket subscribers, leaving those customers’ original phone numbers intact. But Palo Alto, California–based Sherwood offered no timetable for when this transfer, if it occurs, will be completed. The company did not respond to calls asking for information on how long a transfer of this magnitude could take.
“Transferring tens of thousands of VoIP users from one service provider to another has not really been tried before as far as I know,” said Jack Rynes, president of Jaduka, a Dallas-based supplier of web-to-voice products for businesses."
