What is Broadfone?

Broadfone is a phone service that is an alternative to your traditional phone company. It allows you to use a telephone and broadband Internet connection anywhere in the world to make and receive calls. Since calls route through the Internet, the costs are less and the rates are lower.

Broadfone includes great calling features such as VoiceMail, call waiting, caller ID, 3-way calling, and call forwarding.

Broadfone can be used worldwide. You will have a Broadfone phone number, which can be a local U.S. phone number, a U.S. toll-free number, or a U.K. toll-free number.

How can your friends and family call you for less?

Broadfone is more than just great low rates. By using Broadfone, you can help your friends and family lower their phone bills. You can choose a toll-free or local number in the U.S. or a toll-free number in the U.K. -- no matter where you reside. Your U.S. or U.K. phone number works wherever you connect your Broadfone service into a broadband connection.

Regardless of the country in which you set up your Broadfone service, when someone dials your phone number, your Broadfone-connected phone rings. For example, if you choose a U.S. phone number and set up your service in Japan, when someone dials your phone number it rings in your home in Japan. Anyone who calls you from the U.S. saves money because the call is priced as a U.S. call instead of a call to Japan.

Managing your account online

You can log into the Broadfone account center for a summary of your account, recent calls, and recent transactions. You can also listen to your VoiceMail messages, manage your feature settings, and update your account information.
