Now looking at VoIP again.

A lot of noise is made by various VoIP providers about their charges to
international destinations but I rarely see any mention of the price of UK
land-line/mobile calls and/or 087/084 numbers.

Or maybe I'm just stupid and can't find said info?! ;-)

Help and comments appreciated.

My provider of choice, smartvoip.com charge-

uk landlines: free, or 0.8p/min if you run out of "freedays"
uk mobile: 4.2p/min
0844: 0.79p/min
0844 3.3p/min
0871: 15.2p/min
National Rate: 4.2p/min
Personal: 4.2p/min

http://www.smartvoip.com/en/calling-rates.html


I am not entirely sure what "National Rate" and "Personal" covers, some NG codes may not be carried at all.
Also be aware that "free" codes like 0800 *are* charged for regardless of "freedays", 0.8p/min IIRC

Hi Graham,

Are you sure 0800 are charged?

I use Justvoip and 0800 are included in the free mins.

This is from my call log:-

2010-07-27 15:15:06 +448001072149 00:05:39 FREE!


By the way I modified your skypegateway so I could use my free minutes
included by Justvoip by using pbxes to forward the calls to my ATA ( a
fritzbox). I was wondering if you could use SIPtoSIS to send it direct to
the ATA without using pbxes but I have not had time to try it yet.

Had a look on their site but can't seem to find how many 'freedays'
you get per recharge. Is it 60 days, the same as SMSListo?

Unfortunately, that doesn't always work:
http://www.rynga.com/en/free.html

(okay, on their front page they say it's 120 days, but no mention of how
many minutes a week you get.)

I am not convinced there is a rolling weekly limit like the others.
There is however a 5 cent connection charge an all chargable calls (faq page)

Just looked at http://www.rynga.com/en/faq.html and the only reference
to a 5 cent fee is for phone-to-phone calls. Am I missing something?
Though, I'll soon find out as today is the last of my freedays...

I've tried to stick to 300mins/week, once I went over by 20 minutes but
wasn't charged. For the number of calls I was able to make for EUR10 I
really can't complain :)

Thanks Graham,

The SMSListo page is wrong. I use them and they only provide 90
freedays. They reduced it quite a few months ago.

And now I know. I have NOT been charged the 5 cent fee, just the 1c/min
rate to my destination. I can't complain :)
