Yeah, but 056 is quite a good option as it is charged to the caller at
the same rate as 01 and 02, which should also mean that 056 numbers can
be called more readily from overseas (0870 is quite poor in this
respect). Plus you can have as many numbers as you like for as many SIP
addresses as you like. And you're not bound to a single VoIP provider.
Sipgate might have free geo numbers, but strictly speaking you're
limited to only one. And then you're tied to Sipgate too (which may or
may not be desirable, but let's not discuss that here... :-).
