In Mike's original offer it didn't say anything about a "trial" account, just a "free" account. Regarding the service...I love it and anyone near me knows about it. They have done well converting at least myself into an evangelist. It's great efficiency. But, when I mention it to others and they visit the site to see pricing in GBP, not only are they confused but if they bother to do the pricing conversion they figure it's about 2-3x too high (and I agree). But I love not having to call into my voicemail - which I've only done about twice in the last month since getting signed up. Advice for SpinVox: 1) don't screw up this good marketing act by turning off your new evangelists; 2) make your US pricing clearly visible and more competitive.
