So, not only do we have the some of the buggiest software ever released by a major company, we now have been cut off from the only reliable access point when away from a web browser. I don't know about how everyone else uses VCA, but I found it useful to have voice controlled access to my calls and voicemail when driving.
Verizon appears to be trying to force us away from this free product. Fine... But give me a viable alternative and I will pay for it. Nope...Nada...Nothing! I was a paying IOBI customer until they dropped all support for that product and pointed me toward this "Great-Wonderful-Free" VCA. A complete disappointment.
Verizon's management of VCA has been uncomprehensible. Does anyone have any idea what could possibly be going on in Verizon's thinking ????
Like you, I would gladly pay for a viable working alternative. I wish Verizon employees would read all the posts about he problems with VCA.
I am so disappointed as I use this program daily. Does anyone know of an alternative?
