Question

Good VoIP Deal?

Aug 6, 2015 3:32AM PDT

Hi guys,

I have been searching for the best single user VoIP solution for myself. Alphatalk (a company based in Birmingham) is offering a VoIP handset, unlimited landline calls and free 3 months line rental for £15 per month. I'm not sure if this is a good offer or not as I don't know much about VoIP, but £15 a month doesn't seem like they're asking for too much either...help? P.S I do make a lot of landline calls so the unlimited landline calls would be great!

Help? Cheers! Happy

If you aren't able to find a better one on the net or by asking friends, it's the best one. Then see if you can find some reviews about their service and decide.

This topic while a good one gets a lot of spammers so no links folk.

I use a VoIP off and on such as Google Talk, Skype and a friend has the Ooma and magicjack. Each work fine.

is this for personal or commercial use? I know of fastpbx for commerical VoIP solutions. I heard from a friend that his company ended up switching to fastpbx from another voip provider and ended up saving them around $600/year. they have unlimited calling in u.s. & canada, too... but im not sure about their monthly pricing.

hope this helps!

Reliable VOIP Service

I've been with Callcentric for 4 years and love it. I use the per minute plans and it costs me less than $5 a month. Very clear and reliable service. Easy to set up. You do have to supply your own ATA, which costs about $ 35 on Ebay.

nowadays, all of us live in the world which is dominated dy internet. meanwhile it bring a great munber of convince to us, especislly in communication. social network site provide us a wonderful platform where we can talk ,we can talk with each other in visual. nevertheless, it's seem that the most important character for me is that it is free at all.
so VoIP Deal IS WORTHLESS.
