Is there a monthly fee with Ooma Telo?
With a one-time purchase of Ooma Telo, you can start making unlimited calls in the U.S. for free with the Ooma Basic Plan. There's no monthly contract or long-term commitment to start using your Ooma home phone service. For just $9.99/month you can upgrade to Ooma Premier and enjoy an additional suite of advanced features like an instant second line and call blocking.
While your service is free with the Basic plan, all Ooma customers are required to pay monthly taxes and fees. Why? Like other telecommunications companies, Ooma is subject to laws and regulations under the city, county, state, province and federal levels.
As a result, Ooma charges applicable taxes and fees so that the company can comply with laws and regulations mandated by the government:
Regulatory compliance fee
911 service fee
Federal universal service charge (U.S. customers only)
State or province and local taxes, fees and surcharges

Edit: Based on the above post, there is still basic service for free.

The Ooma genie in this deal is locked to the premium service, which is $10+taxes and fees per month. Genie doesn't allow downgrading to the basic plan. You need the Telo for basic.

EDIT: I called to cancel service and planned to return the device. They offered to change the plan to basic for a $20 fee, so I accepted.
I planned to get the renewed Ooma Telo for $50 on Amazon, this saved me a few steps.

I have the Ooma hub - its acting up. When a call comes through, my desktop doesn't have internet!
Call goes to Ooma answerer - though they left a VM, there is no alert on my device for 2 days. No email notification either. Ooma suspect there is something wrong with my device. Tips? I thought its ooma backend?
Can I get Ooma calls on Obitalk without Ooma hardware?
