Vonage Drops Select International Call Rates to a Penny-Per-Minute

New Rates Included for All Residential and Business Customers

HOLMDEL, N.J., March 12, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- In an effort to pass more savings to its customers, Vonage has dropped its already low-priced international calling rates to just one cent per minute in certain locations. The move means an even cheaper way for customers to keep in touch with family and friends in different countries.

Vonage's new international calling rates will be available for new and existing customers in the US and Canada. Areas include locations in Argentina, Australia, China, Mexico, Singapore, Israel, Poland, and Sweden. See chart below for details.

"Vonage is constantly looking for new and innovative ways to save our customers even more money," said Vonage CEO, Mike Snyder. "We have dropped our international rates as low as possible because we understand that many customers choose Vonage as a cheap and easy way to stay in touch with family scattered around the globe."

In addition to these new penny-per-minute rates, Vonage also offers free international calling to France, Italy, Ireland, UK, and Spain with Residential and Small Business Premium Unlimited Plans. Vonage includes free calling within the US, Puerto Rico, and Canada with all plans.
