I called vonage on Nov 2-2007 to get the service and waited two weeks to get the phone device. No one from the Vonage network called our house to let us know that UPS sent them a notice saying that they had the address wrong. I have an invoice from Vonage that has the correct address. That invoice was sent to me on Nov 2-2007 via email. I have since then called Vonage on two separate occasions to cancel my service. Still no refund and no cancellation. HELP!
