If any of you were considering getting a VOIP service I'd like to point out that voipo.com is having a sale now on their unlimited plan.

I'm a happy customer of theirs, and so am recommending their service (had them for about a year) and it seems to work well wherever in the world I am (as long as I have a decent internet connection).

They've beta tested their system for over 2 years and have a lot of fans over at:

www.dslreports.com/forum/voip - under VOIP tech chat.

If you'd like a referral code PM me, you'll get a free month of service.

With taxes and fees, it comes to $135.

Unless there is a promo code out there that takes care of that.

Another option:

I use a calling card that you can buy from most travel agents.

It gives me about 12 hours of phone-phone talk time for 30K Won ($24US).

It really depends on how much you use it, but it's a great deal for me and I don't have to mess with the PC.

It also works with your cell, but you'll only get about half the hours.

Promo code will give you 1 month free.

Calling cards are good, but I think the voice quality of VOIP using a high bandwidth codec like g711 is better.

Use Skype. 2 cents a minute. Or if you talk a lot, Skype-Skype, which is free.

Skype is the cheaper option, but forces you to use your computer. The unlimited plan on Skype is not bad too, and comes with a free DID (incoming number).

Don't calling cards expire after a couple months?

I usually use 00700 to call the US from my cell phone. Its pretty cheap considering I can just call from my cell phone. I'm not limited to being at home to call overseas.

i just use google voice and a sip provider

guess what....IT'S FREE. I can call anywhere in America. I'm not sure about Canada (don't know anybody living there now).

the downside is that you must be on your computer - or use your cell phone (using internet minutes). during the hours that my friends/family is awake i am at home anyways.
