I have been unable to reach NuFone.net since earlier today. There website is also unreachable. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this, and also if anyone knows of the viability of the company.

Looks like their DNS entries are gone? Maybe they forgot to renew their
domain name?

if you read that, it shows that he was selling a product he didnt
understand - telephone minutes. Further it shows that he was not paying
attention to the terms of contracts and such, as a result he got hit
with a lot of charges. What is interesting is that the story appears to
have changed slightly with the personal blog entry as opposed to what
was said at the time that it started going south.
There are several articles quoting Jeremy talking about how he was
"scammed" because he was foolishly selling service for less than it
cost him under terms that left him holding the bag. Looking at it this
way, if Best Buy is selling items for less than their cost, and I buy
them and sell them on ebay, I am not scamming them, they sold it below
their cost I just bought as many as I could so I could turn a profit
(and this really did happen with me, best buy, and mp3 players). I see
no difference with someone else selling something for below their cost
without putting in contractual requirements. The FCC also agrees with
this in one case where they specifically said that its on carriers to
file tariffs and do contracts that protect them and not complain after
the fact that someone used a service they underpriced.

I never said that I know the story better, only that I remember what was
said at the time and what is said now is all new and different even
though its all supposed to be over the same time period and all that.

I'm using Nufone as we speak and they are definitely in business.
Anybody still having problems?
I've had intermittent problems with NuFone in the past. When I first
started with Asterisk several years ago they had the best voice quality
for us and we were quite happy to pay $0.02/min then. But in the last
year reliability went downhill for us and we've moved on.
As a result of this thread I logged into my Nufone account to find that
in the last 45 days they've changed their tollfree fee from $2.50/month
to $7.99/month and failed to provide any notice of the change so I
closed my account and removed them from my LCR mix. (The toll frees were
more or less "parked" there and we weren't using them anyway)
I would suggest that if you're still doing business with them to check
your account carefully.
