Alternative please

[Vikki Sixx]

Hi Folks,

We have family overseas and like using VOIP to speak to them - I am currently using VOIP STUNT. However, recently, VOIP STUNT has become very unreliable and full of snags (dropping calls, not connecting, etc).

Could you please recommend alternatives with similar features - like VOIPSTUNT because you can load 10 Euro on it and then you have 120 free days to certain landline numbers (country dependent)

Thanks in advance
Victor

Ummm skype? Or am I going to get blown out of the water here? Use it VERY successfully to just about anywhere, including on a mobile. And if the connection is a little slow, turn off the video call, plus you can conference call...

Computer says "Yes"

Have a look here

Yes, get a skype phone. Or install the app on any mobile phone. By them one that supports it. Skype is the king of international calls.

Have been using Rynga.com for calls for years. No PC needed, not to mention the bloatware that is Skype.

Not at their rates.

Cheaper than landline and mobile providers. Plus, you get what you pay for.

Yup!

You can call normal landlines from skype. you just need to purchase credits.

Of course that's what I'm talking about. You can also talk free of charge if the other party has Skype.

Which country are you calling to? We call Italy and the UK without issue using Rynga who are a also a part of the Betamax group. Calls to South African landlines are also free - but aren't as high a quality as to overseas destinations.

Do they have a skype-capable mobile?
