Free Calls to States & Canada

So soon I'll get this phone call thing out of my system.

My latest find is google voice..

Unavailable in Canada..no but yeah but, if you accept the invite when you are logged into this then all is good.

Google voice is a callback service and you need a US number to set it up on. Solution is to buy one in Canada, say here for a couple of dollars. Then register for a free US number with IPKALL and register the Canada number to IPKALL number.

So it goes...google to IPKALL to Canada number.

Then you can call the states AND CANADA! for free* as well. You get some nice features, text transcribes of voicemails, SMS and recording.
*Well you pay incoming on the canada number, not figured out that leg for free...yet but it is 1c/min.

Cheap cellphone international calls voip sip voip.ms callback ipkall sip uri

I am trying to get cheap calls from my cell. Experimenting with callback feature in voiP.ms This allows you to set up a call back feature. So you call a number and get a busy tone. You hang up and you get a call back and when you answer there is a dial tone. From there you can call at voip.ms rates. If you have unlimited incoming local calls then on the cell it costs nothing. If you want a real phone number it'll cost you 1.50 a month but I just discovered virtual numbers that voip.ms offer for 25cents a month. The problem then is how are you supposed to dial it from a cell? The answer is you get a free number in the US from IPKALL.COM and set that up to forward to your virtual number. Set callback to your cell and away you go. Should be no charge to call US since number is busy so no connection.
