A fair fit check
Switching
Do not cancel Vonage before the port completes. Cancelling first can release the number.
Start a 14-day trial, invite your team, and build call menus, ring groups, and voicemail on the temporary number. Users and extensions are unlimited on both plans.
Note the account number, any account or port-out PIN, and the name and service address exactly as Vonage has them. A recent bill helps.
If you are on a 12-month Vonage contract, check the end date: Vonage says early termination fees apply to its annual promotion.
Sign the Letter of Authorization (LOA) and submit the port from the phone numbers area of your workspace. Porting in is free, and eligibility and timing are confirmed before the move.
When D Line confirms the port, test inbound calls and texts, register texting (10DLC) if you use it, then cancel Vonage.
Questions
For 1–4 lines, Vonage lists Mobile at $19.99, Premium at $29.99, and Advanced at $39.99 per line per month, with lower rates at higher line counts and a 30%-off promotion on 12-month contracts (checked Oct 2026).
For most small teams. Five lines on Vonage Advanced, the tier with call recording, are up to $199.95/month at the 1–4 line rate. D Line Base includes recording for $20/month per workspace.
Vonage offers monthly service without a contract. Its lowest advertised prices are a promotion that needs a 12-month contract, with early termination fees. D Line is month to month or annual, and both come with a money-back guarantee on the first charge.
Usually, yes. Keep Vonage active until D Line confirms the port. D Line does not charge to port your number in.
D Line Advanced includes team video calling for colleagues. If you host large external meetings, Vonage Meetings or a dedicated meeting tool may suit you better.
