Title: CircleNet getting out of retail VoIP
Post by: Taoman on August 27, 2016, 07:26:12 AM
Sad news regarding CircleNet.

QuoteWe came to a realization about 2 weeks ago that we were spending much more time and money completing paperwork to stay compliant than we were actually working with technology. We don't see this trend of increased regulation at the local level or federal changing anytime soon.

This combined with some personal issues has led us to make a decision.

We will not be taking new customers for the VOIP business also we will take no further payments after 12/24/2016. We'll continue operating the infrastructure until 12/30/2017 if there are customers still using it.

Really sad too as Sam has always been so very good to deal with.
