I just came across this service and I must be missing something...

they'll give you a free LOCAL pstn number, that anyone using a regular
PSTN phone can you from, and it will ring on your voicestick SIP
equipment, all for free!

They do have some paid services such as call forwarding, which Im
guessing means if the voicestick SIP equipment you are trying to reach,
doesnt answer or isnt on, it will automatically route it to a PSTN
phone.

Anyone have any experience with them?

that statement and the hotmail address suggest to me you are probably a
spammer trying to promote some service. As you failed to provide a URL
you must be new to this.

Have a nice day.

I thought that at first, but looking at his previous posts, I don't there is
any malicious intent.

The OP might also look at [url]http://www.sipgate.co.uk/[/url] and
[url]http://www.orbtalk.co.uk/[/url]
who also give free incomming geographic numbers.

IME when anyone starts a post with the words "I just came across this
service" it's almost always a spammer or an affiliate link.

.....but without a link...?

Anyway, assuming the OP had good intentions, and to add to Graham's
comments, the OP could look at <http://www.voiptalk.org/reallyvoip> or
<https://www.voiptalk.org/products/really_useful_signup.php> - free geo
number and, at least when I signed up, a £2 call credit included.

Hi,

And when you come across a service or site you would like to let others know
about / that you think others would find useful or might be interested in or
appreciate being informed about... how do you start such a post?

I understand what you are saying Ivor and often you would be right in your
thoughts about such posts - but that doesn't make them all suspicious /
illegitimate.


Best wishes,



News Reader

Think whether you really need to. If someone *asks* what would be a good
service/system or whatever, then by all means reply, but I don't see that
there is a need to post just to say "I think this is brilliant" - even if
you think it's helping people, it could be regarded as
advertising/spamming, rightly or wrongly.

That's not to say that there are never times when something is worth
shouting from the rooftops about, but IMHO it's rare.

True, but unfortunately the legitimate ones have been tarred with the
wrong brush.

And of course the grand Ayatollah Ivor WOULD immediately think it was
spam seeing that he has a fettish about spam and spammers .
