list of countries snipped

"Call charges likely to change without notice"

Sister companies voipcheap and voipbuster have lost free calls to many
destinations in the last few weeks.
Can only be a matter of time before internetcalls drop free UK calls

I haven't looked at voipbuster, however, the free calls list still
includes UK @ voipcheap.com

Even if the rates do change, @ £7.99, I'd have to go some to use up
that amount ringing destinations that cost 1ct per minute.

£7.99 seems excessive.

As I'm out most of the day, even voip.co.uk's £2 per month for
unlimited E&WE calls is better value than Vonage's offer

Still looks the rip-off it is to me.

All my received calls are free..! As are most of those I dial for that
matter.

As for the statement "Free calls for £7.99 a month" that just doesn't make
sense. I suppose it must be some new definition of the word "free" of
which I was previously unaware.

How can that be free??

£7.99 per month is £7.99 more than free.

What you are getting is inclusive calls for £7.99, so you are paying
£7.99 for calls to those destinations, that's not free.

how many more times before you get it into your thick head the 7.99 is
just like the £ 11.00plus people are paying to BT plus calls and yes
the calls ARE free to all 01 and o2 numbers and their equivalents in
the whole of Ireland . The only 01 and 02 numbers you can dial from
your beloved useless Sipgate account are to other Sipgate users .
NOW ONCE AGAIN CALLS FROM A VOAGE ACCOUNT TO ALL
01 and 02 NUMBERS ARE TOALLY FREE.
By the way have you yet come to the conclusion that you ARE a European
if not what are you an Australian or an American or something .
