August 25, 200916 yr Hello all, I am looking for some friendly advice as to what VOIP service people are using to call england. I currently use Skype but the quality is 50/50 to say the least. If I can make and receive calls with 100% clarity, I can stay in this wonderful country. Any advice would be very welcome. Kap khun mak
August 25, 200916 yr Hello all,I am looking for some friendly advice as to what VOIP service people are using to call england. I currently use Skype but the quality is 50/50 to say the least. If I can make and receive calls with 100% clarity, I can stay in this wonderful country. Any advice would be very welcome. Kap khun mak "Skype out" works very well for me but to do so requires a minimum ADSL connection (I use Loxinfo) and quality USB headset. Suggest the top "Logitech" model available here. Also, calling times: Late evenings and night for clear transmission and reception.
August 25, 200916 yr I frequently use VOIPcheap.com. Buy 10 Euro's worth of vouchers and get free PC to Phone calls in the UK and many other western destinations free for 90 days. Quality is good and reliable. For a small fee (0.9p/minute) you can also set up a Phone to Phone link so as you are not tied to your PC while talking. edit The Phone to Phone connection also saves any problems with poor network speeds at this end (Not that I have ever heard of such a problem in LOS ) Edited August 25, 200916 yr by thaimite
August 26, 200916 yr I dont use skype out , only its video conferencing facility which has been getting worse recently. I just switched to google chat and whilst it may not have the same options as skype, the picture quality and sound is excellent.
August 26, 200916 yr I use Skype extensively, from to Thailand/UK/USA and my experience is excellent, both voice and video. If Skype does not work for you it ain't Skype, so another service will almost certainly not be any better. Cheap as chips too (except don't call a mobile in the UK.. Ouch!).

I also use skype on a daily basis all day and must agree with the OP that its rough at times..des anybody else have experience of voipcheap? It sounds like a good alternative
