Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

Early Termination Fees

high addon

Vonage charges significant early termination fees when customers cancel before their contract ends. Multiple users report fees of $312 and $600. The company enforces these even when customers experienced prolonged service outages or failure to deliver contracted services.

trustpilot

they are trying to charge me a cancellation service fee of $312. DO NOT join this service. Beware!

trustpilot

they demanded a $600 early termination fee. Even worse, they renewed the contract for another year without my consent. Now they are threatening to charge another termination fee if we try to leave.

2

Automatic Contract Renewal

high compliance

Vonage Business contracts auto-renew for 1-2 year terms with little notice to customers, locking businesses into additional billing periods they did not intend. Multiple users report being unaware of the auto-renewal clause until they attempted to cancel, at which point they were held to the full new term.

trustpilot

Lock you in to a 2 year contract with auto renewal and virtually imposible to cancel.

trustpilot

they renewed the contract for another year without my consent. Now they are threatening to charge another termination fee if we try to leave. When I asked for a copy of the contract with my signature, they claimed they were unable to find it — yet they are still insisting that we pay the fee.

3

SMS Activation Additional Fees

medium addon

Enabling SMS functionality requires a separate post-signup registration process that triggers additional charges beyond the base plan cost. Users report this fee is not disclosed upfront during the sales process and only surfaces partway through setup.

trustpilot

Once I did that it said I would get charged an additional fee, which I let me AE know and he said that was normal. I wasn't happy about it but I agreed and went through the process

Paid Premium Support Required for Timely Help

medium support

Standard support is chat-only with long wait times and frequent agent disconnections. Users report that faster or meaningful technical support requires purchasing a separate paid support tier — a cost not disclosed during the sales process.

trustpilot

I have to buy paid support in order to get faster response? Is this joke?

5

Unexplained Mid-Contract Bill Increases

critical overage

Users report their monthly bills doubling mid-contract without advance notice or explanation. Customer support is reported as unable or unwilling to provide resolution, leaving customers stuck paying the higher rate or facing early termination fees to leave.

trustpilot

Horrible experience , increased my bill by double, told me i would get a call back i never did! Bill went from 170 to 350! Filing a complain with CCTS and switching my lines to Google voice now as they are even cheaper then the 170 I was paying!

6

Full Outstanding Balance Required Before Cancellation

high compliance

Customers report that Vonage's system will not process a cancellation request until the full outstanding account balance is paid. This creates a debt loop where customers who cannot pay are also unable to cancel, causing the balance to grow further each month.

trustpilot

I got seriously ill and couldn't pay my bill. I called multiple times to cancel my account, but no one ever answered the phone. Their system wouldn't let me cancel unless I paid the full balance first, so the debt just kept growing every month.
