Pioneer 3.25 TalkCents User Review

Cons: None so far

Summary: I was with 10-10-321 before I went with Pioneer but my long distance was still too high. Since Pioneer my bills went down from about $20 to $1.50 per month. Such great savings with no loss in quality service!!

Cons: A five to ten second delay before calls connect may rule this out for you

Summary: We're pleased with the cheap rate - who wouldn't be - but it seems to come at a cost in call quality, namely a consistent (and consistently annoying) delay between the time we finish dialing a number and when the phone actually starts ringing at the other end. The longest we've timed is just over fifteen seconds, and it's always over five seconds. This has led to many redialed calls (before we figured out what was happening) and even a week or so at the beginning when we didn't think the service worked. If you make a lot of calls this might just put you over the edge. We didn't have this problem with our old carrier.

Summary: I am very satisfied with the Pioneer 3.25 TalkCents plan. Although I have only had this plan a few months, it is exactly what I was looking for because the long distance per minute rate is low and there is no minimum monthly fee. It is a great plan for people who do not make a lot of long distance calls every month.

Cons: Pioneer website could be more user-friendly

Summary: Last November I signed up for the Pioneer 3.25 TalkCents service plan which is billed to my credit card. The cost has been less than I expected, and I like the convenience of having it billed on my credit card. After spending a year using calling cards and having to dial a 1-800 number and then a PIN number, and then the number I was calling, it felt truly liberating to only have to dial a 1 and then the number. My only complaint is that the Pioneer website is not easy to use and I called the customer service number to confirm when the service started. Otherwise I've had no problems and lots of cheap talk.

Cons: None that I can see at this point

Summary: This has been everything that I expected and more. I was paying over $60/month to Verizon for very little long distance usage. Now my Verizon bill is under $40. We have two cell phones, so we just don't use much. Your service allows me to use what I need and really helps my budget. Thanks for your service!!!!

Cons: bad customer service.

Summary: Great rates and no service to speak of. I am disapointed and might change to a different provider .

Cons: None!

Summary: Delivered as advertised!

Cons: None

Summary: I've been using Pioneer for Long Distance for about 3-4 years now. I've only had to contact customer service once, but they resolved my issue with one phone call. Highly Recommended.

Cons: No cons

Summary: See above for those opinions.

Cons: So far, none.

Summary: I signed up for Pioneer Telephone long distance service through PhoneDog because my 88-year old mom now lives with us. We had used an MCI card for our long-distance calls, but she couldn't dial all the numbers and got so frustrated she refused to phone her grandkids and old friends anymore. She can handle "1 + area code and phone number." She's happy, we're happy.
