    For the last 2-3 days i've been searching the web, reading reviews, testing things out in order to find a good VOIP service. what i basically need is a PC 2 Phone call system. i would also like to by with paypal and to pay for what i talk and not monthly, yearly and so on...i looked at skype, signed up but on the payment page i have only moneybookers and money transfer...i don't know where the other payment methods gone.
    i also tried another company but have to wait 24 hours for activation..very strange..well i hope you give me a few choices..thanks!

    We use DiamondCard.us as you can also use it to send text messages through it :)

    Mostly we use BT (UK) as our phoneline/ADSL is provided by them and they have this base-unit (BTHH) they provided us that's linked up with the cordless phone (they also provide) and all calls are routed through it unless I dial 5 then it'll go via the 'normal' channel of phonelines and not the VoIP way system :)

    Best I ever had is ??? I can't remember who but, I topped up GBP £5 and they gave us a number I called I got free within my 1,110 mins. by my cellular network and I could dial international calls, so I could do it via my mobile anywhere I wanted and it was really cheap too per. min. :)

    All betamax products are good and cheap.

    Voipcheap.com, freecall.com, voipstunt.com, voipraider.com, etc.,

    Just check with their websites. Even if you register your phone numbe with them in certain countries you can make phone to phone calls also on the same rate.

    agree with krkbkk, betamax products are the best. You can check the cheapest rate to countries you wanna call to and then decide which one you will go for
    well I used to use this to compare the calling rate

    wow I had no idea that there were so many other VIOP providers out there!! We use Vonage and for our move from Georgia to Germany....seamless. I am sure it is more expensive then the others mentioned but now that I know...I am sure we are going to change.
