Well, there are lots of other companies offering voip services, but when
it comes to price-competitive voip, there is nothing except Betamax as
far as I know. I suspect that voip.co.uk can't be competitive with
betamax and also make a profit, so they are sitting on their hands till
Betamax prices rise.

Indeed. I use Betamax for most outgoing calls, but keep voip.co.uk for
incoming and the outgoing calls that they are still competitive for (and
one of our offices uses voip.co.uk exclusively because it's not worth
the hassle of changing).

I'm still hoping that voip.co.uk will revisit the residential / SOHO
market. We have some clients who would use them.
