Am I missing something here? Wouldn't it be better to promote VoIP providers who offer a 'geographic' number, preferably for free? Sipgate.co.uk do this,last time I checked. Also VoIPcheap.co.uk, although you need to top up by £10 these days.
Are you? Either type of number is available free of charge, and can be called for the same tariffs, including 0p per minute, from a wide range of networks, though there are some 0560 ambiguities to be ironed out (easier by making a short call than actually asking, it seems)
- interesting that a call via 18866 caused an email voicemail message from an IP address, at no cost to receive.
It may be worth also promoting VoIP providers with a wider range of flexible product options, whether free or not. For example, several people are interested in call diversion to int'l mobiles, to subvert roaming charges.
