Hi All,
I've used VoipCheap for quite some time, and getting tired of low quality calls every now and then. I've just been listening to this group for a while, and Blueface seems like a good alternative - I prefer to be billed in Euros, please, as I can never actually figure out how much I'm paying when the rates are in Sterling. So, either Blueface, or another European based alternative, with: a) a better call quality than VoipCheap, b) a web interface in either EN, FR, SP, or IT, c) *and* rates in Euros, please? Your sugestions welcome. Thanks, Jose PS - If there's any provider in the UK that's billing in Euros, I'll consider it too, of course. |

I've just set it to your sugested configuration, and I'll see what gives. Been playing around with a Blueface account, and it doesn't seem to allow for outgoing Caller ID (other than a Blueface assigned Irish number, perhaps :-( ) Thanks, Jose PS - Sometimes wonder if Betamax is not going eat the entire residential and SOHO market... Their 120 days of free calls to selected destinations is "outrageous" |
