Vonage in trouble as 911 deadline passes

VoIP provider Vonage had until Monday to ensure all customers could make reliable 911 calls, but that deadline has passed and still many cannot, which means Vonage may face a block on having any new customers subscribe. Vonage say, however, that it's not all their fault.

In its compliance report to the FCC, Vonage said only 26 percent of its customer base had full E911 services. The company — which has more than 1 million subscribers — said it was capable of transmitting a call back number and location for 100 percent of its subscribers, but that it still was waiting for cooperation from competitors that control the 911 network.
