Sorry to hear your Shaw experience hasn't been the greatest, hopefully the platform will only improve with time and feedback. Not sure if you are aware, but Shaw has recently introduced free Shaw to Shaw long distance for basic phone plans starting at a bundled rate of $20.95 (with internet or TV). I've been using the $55 Shaw phone plan for a while now, and haven't had an problems my self. I'm going to be giving SKYPE a test drive, as mobility and cost reduction is a huge factor in keeping in touch with family and friends. I currently work for Shaw as a sales rep, so this should be interesting :) Great post!

I also use voip.ms myself for a few years now and *love* them. Perfect for us since we are part-time in two different countries.. we just plug in the ata wherever we're at and good to go. :) I found your post because my parents are in Vancouver and not happy with Telus. I know Shaw offers Voice service, so wanted to read some current reviews on how they're doing. I also wanted to make sure it's an idiot-proof system, as my parent's aren't tech-savvy at all, and I'm not here half the time to \fix it\ when things break. (There's only so much a geek can do remotely, right?) I've found a few other good reviews, and after reading yours also... I think I'll recommend they switch their internet and voice to Shaw now, and take advantage of (hopefully) a good bundling deal. (They already use Shaw for cable..) Thanks again for your post. :) Thanks for the review. I also use voip.ms myself for a few years now and *love* them.

I've had Shaw phone since they first introduced it here in Calgary (about 4 years ago or so). I agree that it works consistently well. Quality is great, downtime nearly non-existant, features are decent, one can have voicemail to email (but only to shaw email accounts). I had the Motorola box for most of the time. When I ordered a second line they gave me an Arris. I never had problems with the Motorola, but I found the Arris voice quality to be alittle louder. All in all it was a great service except for the price. I think what they are charging for residential customers is very pricey (about 55/mth). I have since switched to voip.ms. Granted I have to menage everything by myself, and is not as reliable, but the savings are huge (I end up using about $10/mth on average). Interesting and informative.
