I do use VOIP, because it's cheaper than the $55 per month they expect here for a landline. $55...yikes, someone must be very proud of their telco offering. As for VoIP being cheaper, I assume you mean free (after acquiring a VoIP adapter). usually, voip-voip calls are free, while calls to/from ptsn are not. GV calls within the US and Canada are free, but limited to 3 hours. International calls start at $0.01 per minute, depending on the called country. The called number can be PSTN, or not. It's still free. Google Voice is still free and works pretty well, although individual calls are limited to 3 hours. it's not voip, although there are ways to use it as such. I use it with an Obihai ATA and it looks like VoIP to me. I vaguely recall that it might have been SIP back when it was launched, but that's ~10 years ago so I don't remember for sure. |
