Today has been the only day there have been problems but I have only been with them for 3 months. But for 1.99/month, it's not bad for free off-peak calls. Steve |

The incoming senario may be less reliable but I abandoned that a long time ago as I preferred an alternative voicemail system. Remove 'no_spam_' from email address. Skype Free Zone!! |

It is possible to use voipfone voiptalk easypabx or even voxalot if you can forward your number. There are lots to choose from that have a better voicemail system and I don't think you will have to go at all far down the list to find the best one. The quality of web site matches the quality of service I'd say. The problem with the voip.co.uk voicemail is that it only allows you to listen to a message once then it is automatically erased. Of course you can pick it up on the Net but, personally, I don't think that is a very satisfactory. However, using voip.co.uk for outgoing calls and an alternative for incominng calls operates very well for me. The only disadvantage is the CLI problem. In practice I don't find it to be a problem. There is a message on the voip.co.uk voicemal to direct to my incoming number and I only give my number to a limited set of people anyway. Remove 'no_spam_' from email address. Skype Free Zone!! |

So hopefully there will be some big improvements. |

" We are also taking steps to provide a better voicemail service in the near future." I got fed up with waiting. I am still awaiting the sorting out of my account since all the billing went wrong in March. However, as, previously stated, I am happy with outgoing calls on voip.co.uk and I still recommend them to people on that basis. Remove 'no_spam_' from email address. Skype Free Zone!! |
