Idaho home phone service FAQs

What does Ooma offer that I can’t get from a landline?

Many individuals are looking to residential VoIP options like Ooma as a landline alternative. Even with the rise of mobile use, millions of Americans still want to keep a home VoIP phone for several reasons. Here are a few common ones:

Call blocking: Landlines are notorious for pesky telemarketing calls. Ooma’s powerful customizable system blocks more than 1 million telemarketing calls each month, something you typically can’t get with landline service.
Call quality: Ooma’s PureVoice technology ensures that calls are always crystal-clear. And, Ooma’s HD capabilities capture twice as much audio content compared to landlines.
Pricing: Ooma’s Basic Service lets you make unlimited nationwide calls for free (all you pay are taxes and fees), while Ooma’s Premier Service costs less than $10 per month, plus applicable taxes and fees. Compared to landlines, you can save thousands per year by making the switch.

Is Ooma compatible with Starlink?

Yes. Ooma’s VoIP service has been tested to show no connectivity problems when customers use Starlink as their internet service provider.

Can you still get a landline in Idaho?

Yes, you can still get a landline in Idaho. However, landline phone service monthly rates can be expensive, due to a combination of old, expensive-to-maintain copper infrastructure and providers turning toward new technologies like VoIP. You can save thousands per year by switching to VoIP for your home phone service. Ooma home phone service lets you make unlimited nationwide calls for free; all you pay are applicable taxes and fees.

Can I keep my phone number in Idaho?

Yes! Keeping your old phone number is easy with Ooma. All you have to do is log in to your My Ooma account, navigate to the Add-Ons tab and select the Number Port option. You’ll next have to provide some information, including the number you want to port, the type of phone number it is and the type of internet service you have. Next, you’ll need to fill out an online Letter of Authorization (LOA) form, which lets Ooma begin the number porting process from your old service provider. There are some things to keep in mind before you port: Do not cancel your old phone service before your number is ported. If you do, your old provider could put your phone number back into the pool of available numbers before Ooma has a chance to transfer it. Number porting with Ooma has a one-time fee of $39.99. However, this fee is waived if you subscribe to one year of Ooma Premier service. Ooma Premier is $9.99 a month and comes with advanced features like Enhanced Caller ID and the ability to block telemarketers, robocalls and spammers. Note: Porting phone numbers from area codes in Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico has an annual charge of $29.99 per year. This annual fee is waived for Ooma Premier members.

Can you use 911 without a landline?

Yes! You can still use 911 without a landline. Using 911 with Ooma is easy. When you register your Ooma Telo device, you must provide a valid street address. This location is used as your service address, so if you dial 911 emergency response professionals will be able to locate you. It’s important to keep your service address updated if you move so that emergency personnel can quickly reach your location if needed.

The local home phone service you need.

Are you considering a move to Idaho or are you an Idahoan seeking the best home phone service in the Gem State? Look no further than Ooma! But first, let's dive into what makes Idaho unique.

Idaho is located in the Pacific Northwest and is the 14th largest state in the US. It's known for its vast wilderness and boasts the largest contiguous wilderness area in the lower 48 states: the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness. This is just one example of Idaho's rugged topography, characterized by vast forests, towering mountains and deep river canyons.

Idaho is also home to diverse wildlife, including elk, moose, grizzly bears and mountain lions. Idaho is the native home of four subspecies of cutthroat trout, its official state fish. They are the Westslope, Yellowstone, Bonneville, and Snake River Finespotted cuttroat trout.

Idaho is known as the "Gem State" because it has a rich history of gemstone mining. The state is a top producer of star garnets—a unique garnet with a star shape when cut and polished. These garnets are found exclusively in Idaho and India, making them very rare and highly prized. Opals are also found in Idaho, and Idaho opals are highly sought after for their unique colors and patterns for use in high-end jewelry.

If you're an outdoor enthusiast, Idaho is the perfect place. With 4.8 million acres of designated wilderness, the state offers endless opportunities for hiking and camping. Some of the best places to hike include the Sawtooth Mountains, Hells Canyon and Craters of the Moon National Monument & Preserve.
