Sadrud-din Seifullah The service is great

Steve Barlow

Steve Barlow Great service! Software works great as I travel in Canada and the US and beyond! Seems secure, which is a blessing as well, especially in unfamiliar areas! Keep up the good work, and keep adding hotspots!

Hideki Saito

Hideki Saito Yay! This was quite cool that I could use Boingo on the ferry.

Barbara Cornish Mobley

Barbara Cornish Mobley Can you sign up for Boingo on a month to month bases? or for just one month at a time? Just how does boingo work? why do I want boingo if I am at a location with free internet for example McDonalds or starbucs? Really want to understand how this works before signing up for service.

Boingo
Boingo
Hi Barbara, I'll answer your questions one-by-one.

1) It is a non-subscription, but recurring charge. So it is month-to-month with no contract.
2) Boingo has a network of hotspots around the world (120,000+ around the world)
3) Boingo is a single log-in and password for a big variety of hotspots. With Boingo, you get Starbucks, McDonald's, hotels, airports and more within our network. Only one log-in and password to remember.... Read More
4) Boingo is for premium locations with fast, speedy and reliable WiFi connections.

Let me know if you have more questions!
Barbara
Barbara
Boingo thanks for you help. Do you always have to be inside the hot spot location? How far away from a hot spot can you still connect?
Boingo
Boingo
Yep, you need to be in close proximity to the hotspot.

Boingo Congrats to Annette Long, Regina Walton, Barbara Nixon, Giles Radford and Michel de Ligt for winning! Make sure you keep an eye out on the Twitter account, and I'll be having more fun there!

OMG! Thank you so much! It's one less expense I'll have while looking for work. And, as someone born and raised in L.A., I'm glad to see an L.A. based company doing well.
Sue Swenson

Sue Swenson It is a good service but . . . .look out for billing practices! Your cheap account can turn into an expensive account when you're not looking.

Allan Took my first trip back to San Diego last week since moving to Memphis three months ago and your service was a lifesaver at the Memphis Intl. Airport on the way to CA and at the DFW Airport on the way home to TN. I will definitely be using your service for years to come. Go Boingo!

Michel de Ligt

Michel de Ligt Learned about Boingo at Chicago airport during a short visit to the airport years ago. Never thought Boingo also worked here in the Netherland but my Ipod Touch learned me that the did. I subscribed to Boing on my Ipod but it would be great to als have it on my laptop.

Mark Just signed up and I hear good things. One problem is no Boingo at Denver international airport. The site says because DIA has free wifi but trust me it's so slow and spotty it's not worth signing on.

Our service is for use within the McDonald's, or other retail locations. Let me know if you need anything else!
Giles Antonio Radford

Giles Antonio Radford I really would like a free account, as I'm regularly going to be travelling to some less advanced markets this year, such as Egypt and Morocco, where mobile access will be incredibly expensive, and credit cards don't always work, and a Boingo account might well give me the edge I need to keep connected.

I've used you back when you did a joint venture with Skype, and it was excellent. I stopped travelling for a while so it was less useful to me, but my new job will have me in airports and hotels all over the world!

Frank Big help for me, found a couple of hotels that had no internet service, so I needed this to be able to use the McDonald's connections to be able to take care of emailing in my service updates.

Glad there were McDonald's near the hotels so you could use your account. It's about being where you need us to be, and we try to always do that.

Regina

Regina I'm already a member and I love the service. Since buying the service, I've not been in an airport where I don't have wifi access. Also, just going around town, I know that most Starbucks and Barnes & Nobles give me access. (Also, McDonalds does too). What's great is customer service (seriously.) I get consistently awesome feedback for questions on Twitter. Sometimes phone hold times can be long, but it's rare I need to talk to someone on the phone.

Getting free Boingo would be great (plus, I'm looking for work, so it would help my "no money coming in" budget").

Dipu

Dipu The reason I want Boingo is due to the the ability to access my huge set of files on my hard disk regardless of which city I am at. I can use my laptop and do not have to worry about using my phone's tiny keypad :-). The monthly rate is definitely a plus!

Barbara B. Nixon

Barbara B. Nixon Loving my trial subscription to Boingo. Great for the MANY times I've been stuck in airports. I can grab a comfy seat, fire up my Dell Insipiron, and with Boingo I can either kill time or be productive, depending on my mood. I can check flight status without having to pack up my stuff and find a flight-status monitor. And the monthly fee definitely beats the high wireless charges in some hotels, too. Consider me a fan. (Shameless Plug: And I'd love to win a longer subscription.)

Ric Johnson Can I just take a moment to say that I think @jspepper and @boingo are the epitome of greatness. Definitely more reliable than 140conf wifi.

Boingo
Boingo
Thanks! And I heard the 140Conf was pretty good, wish I could have made it out to NY for it.
Jim Young

Jim Young Hello Boingo, I've been with Boingo for 3 months now using a Thinkpad laptop with the built-in IBM 802.11abg wireless card. Couldn't be happier with the service, especially the ability to connect most services do not have hot spots.

Boingo
Boingo
Hello Jim! Love hearing that you're happy with Boingo. :) Are you a frequent traveler, or do you connect mostly around town?
Jim
Jim
My usage is mostly around town. But I have used it while travelling to a number of cities within Florida. Never had a problem.

Love it.
Joyce M. Holland

Joyce M. Holland Trying to wean myself of a broadband subscription plan, but a little reluctant to switch. Motorola Q9M SmartPhone running Windows 6.0 with multiple applications installed. The problem is the phone's was heavily promoting the Bluetooth capability and forgot to mention that Wi-Fi is NOT part of the equipmment. So I am madly investigating the purschase of a Spectec Mini SDIO WiFi Card 802.11b (SDW-822 Mini SDIO Wireless LAN). Why this brand? Because according to my research, this is the most compatable. So, my question is, can someone on the list who have used this card with the BOING service, please provide a rating on the connection time and the disconnects or drop-offs.
Thanks a lot................

Boingo
Boingo
Hi Joyce! To answer your question, if the phone runs on WM 6.0 (as it does) then the card should work, but it's not entirely guaranteed. Additionally, the card should be enabled with WM 6 drivers.

We recommend that you upgrade to a MOTO Q11... Read More…it’s a newer, sleeker phone, although we're not sure if it is sold in the US (via a carrier). You can buy it unlocked via a US distributor, but it will be expensive as an unlocked phone. However, please note that we have not validated this via testing. If you have any further questions, please let us know!
