Default VOIPtelephony at Your Parents Home In INDIA-The best alternative for Calling cards

You can save 100's of dollars by setting up voip in your home in India. I and a few friends of mine have succesfully setup voip with the help of a guy in chennai(He services South India).This guy has come up with a website "www.voipindiacall.com/voip/index.html"



I am posting this assuming it would be helpfull for current or future members in path2usa who are interested in VOIP. BY just spending a few dollars you can talk limitless with your parents and relatives at home.

It really works. We sent packet8 and the adapter is free. We just pay 20$ every month for the service. anytime, anywhere you can reach home and they can call you anytime to any US number they want to. I did not believe this when my husband told me, now i am enjoying. read abt. these phones in forums like desivonage.com and there are lot of other forums if youw ant to take help. google search.

Good to know. I think if it works, we can have lots of ways to play. Actrully no need to have monthly fee at all or a very small money. $20/mon is a lot.

If you have VOIP phone from same company for both places, then you can go for local plan also which will cost you as low as 7.95 / month for unlimited in network

yakbay,

Pls let me know what you are going to do. If it works I can also try to save little more. I am happy spending 20$ as i use to spend lot more than this..
Thanks!

varun,

does this service work in India too? Did you try? My friend sent vonage first and it did not work. itseems vonage doesn't work in India. then after doing lot of research we found that packet8 works. pls let me know.
Thank you!

I never tried but lingo provides international numbers for few countries(not for India), so they might have blocked access from other countries without having international number.
There are few other cheaper voip providers also like viatalk.com 9.95/month and zingotel.com 5.95/month, these may work.
