Telefonica To Shut Down VoIP Provider Jajah On January 31, 2014
An anonymous reader writes "Voice over IP (VoIP) provider Jajah has announced it will be shutting down on January 31, 2014. This means Jajah.com and Jajah Direct services will no longer be offered, and users will not be able to make any more calls. Existing Jajah users will be able to use their account normally until the kill date, but new registrations meanwhile are no longer being accepted. You can also apply for a refund of any balance remaining on your account prior to the service closing by submitting a request to customer support (processing time is 30 days)."
I think we're supposed to talk about the NSA.
Presumably the latter -- they paid $200M for it in 2009. (Ouch.)
They bought it for $200M to prevent competition. Running it for a while then shutting it down could have been the master plan.

No, I think it's more of a cop-out. Now, Slashdot doesn't even have to sort through the submissions to eek out a story. They just wander through some random RSS feed with perhaps some search terms (in this case the technical and ever interesting concept of VOIP), dump the blurb out and then let the rest of us figure out what's going on.
Faster! Faster! Faster would be better!
Just yesterday I put in $10. Now I have one year to use it.

Math isn't your strong suit isn't it... the shutdown date of January 31, 2014 is less than two months from now.
I don't care who you are, 2014-2013 is 1. As in one year.
