Magic jack?

[shinysparklybubbles]

Does anyone have magic jack for their phone line? If so, does it work with an alarm system? I'm trying to figure out the cheapest way to have a phone line so we can get an alarm system.

Thank You! I was having problems finding info on their site.

Most companies will not install a system if you do not have a dedicated phone line. Magic Jack does not qualify as such.

You might want to ask around about how well others like Magic Jack. My neighbor tried it and after 2 months got rid of it.

There are some alarm companies that do not require a land line at all. However, that option may cost a little more per month. We use Magic jack as a backup and I can say that it drops calls quite a bit.
