How Much Do You Pay To Phone Back Home....

[skipdivils]

So, how much does everyone pay (per minute) to call back home (wherever that may be) from Samui.

And what method do you use?

Not Samui, Bangkok, but 6bt with a phonenet card from CAT.

Your own landline dial 009, 008 or 007 (before the country code) and it is 7 baht a minute to the US, the UK and most of Europe (not Ireland tho) . Also available on a mobile phone with a Thai SIM card. Be aware that you won't get this rate on someone's private phone as that person is charging you extra for the use of their phone. Also available a CAT Phone card usable on payphones, 009 gets you 7 baht a minute.

Must have DSL for Vonage tho, correct?

[poorfarang]

That is correct.

Worked great in Bangkok, and Im hoping my dsl here in samui will be good enough as well. Sattelitte has too much lag for good VOIP.
