Well, no, if I ever managed to use more than 300 minutes per 7 days I
could tell you, however home<->work calls are sip<->sip through
voipfone.co.uk so they are free regardless then.
Between home and work calls from two separate ADSL connections we don't
(too my knowledge) ever go past 7 hours a week though there is no way of
telling really as we're using 2 different IP addresses. :¬)

Static or dynamic makes no odds. You don't actually have to have the ATA
registered to make an outboud call. the call is made through the
internet using your account number and password.
ATA registration is only needed if youhave an incoming voip number so
your ATA can tell your VOIP provider your _current_ registered IP
address whether it is the same as yesterday of has changed in the last
10 minutes (unlikely unless you have re-booted your modem (able or ADSL)

They wouldn't have been using it in a "fraudulent" way. A more
fraudulent way would be to aquire a fresh IP address once you had hit
your free minute allowance then start a fresh with new IP address.
......but that's not fraudulent as they say it's OK to do.
I guess the rare minority that feel the need to squeeze extra minutes is
so small it's not a financial issue.

no, I mean, why are you using voxalot in the first place?
From my own usage I can't understand the need for it.
