The deal will enable Vonage to sell telephone services to companies with up to ten extensions or lines.

Last week two Coms directors toasted the deal by going into the market to up their stakes.
Chief executive Dave Breith bought 7.96 million shares at 0.75p per share to take his holding up to 89.66 million.
