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.

Hi,
I searched comments in Google about www.ipkall.com and you need calls to ipkall answered at least every 30 days to keep the account active. If all ipkall is getting is a busy signal, seems that doesn't qualify as an answered call and your account expires in 30 days?

Ipkall not required anymore
Get 403 Calgary number from Freephoneline.ca. For somereason google voice accepts it.
Fwd that to wherever you like

Or just use call phone in gtalk. Make sure language settings in gmail set to US English

To get google voice all you need to do is open your gmail in the US. To do that from canada use hotspot shield which will place you in the states somewhere
