Hello people,
I have a question for ya. Feel free to speak your mind

And my Q is - can you refer a good and cheap way to call India from the UK?

Skype? Especially if you can get whoever you're calling to use it too.

There are also literally thousands of prepaid calling cards, usually available from smaller newsagents.

skype has low quality of calls and a lot of delay i've already tried it... need something else

ceedee · 28-10-2010, 21:08

In that case, I'd try a prepaid phone card.

Google has *loads*...

JustinBarley · 28-10-2010, 22:06

Tried that too, High prices of the calls/hidden taxes and low quality...

It might be worth looking at your Telephone/Mobile provider, some of them do addon's that vastly reduce the rates of international calling.

Or

Try looking at some of the SIP/VOIP providers?

Here's a few I can think of.

I'm sure there are lots more, some will be cheaper than others. Most will support either a softphone or a hardware device such as an IP phone.
