Author: Chaonan Chen, Huihui Duan, Au Group Electronics We own a magicJack since May, 2008, and have been contacting with magicJack and asking them about when the Canadian phone number will be available for our customer. The answer was they were still working on this, and did not have an anticipate date yet.
Until recently, the great news come out, magicJack Canadian phone number is available now. Even though just a few provinces’ phone numbers are available to choose from, it is still good news to magicJack Canadian users.
