umj said:forjag said:How about Startec.com..They offer 10cents to india, 4.5 cents in us and 7 cents within your state. You can use pin number (which they will provide when u switch )for calls to be made from a phone other than ur home phone, and you get billed on a single bill (together with your home phone usage and calls made from any other phone using the pin). Same rates whether u use home phone or any other phone including your cell. ..Quality is great..Never had a single dropped call/any trouble.

Do you need to switch your long distance carrier in order to use Startec ?
I am pretty happy with my current LD provider (3 cents / minute) and don't want to change that.

STARTEC IS NOT GOOD!!! THEY CHARGE 1.95 MONTHLY FEE. I THINK G3TELECOM AND RELIENCE INDIA ARE THE BEST!!!

Wonder what Cheeta is trying to impart by sayin this five times

HI StinkPot, HEY IWAS NOT IMPARTING ANYTHING .IT WAS THIS PAGE THAT CONFUSSED ME!!

jacobsen said:Don't forget about onesuite.com, people. Depending on the region of India you're calling, it can go as low as 9 cents per minute. The advantage here is that onesuite has been around forever and so they're reliable, and there's no annoying PIN or anything. They just added VoIP service, too, at the same rates as their online calling cards. You can get an account and use it for both regular calling and VoIP calling.
I have been using voipcheap.com for 3 weeks now using their VoIP service extensively and have been very happy. Unlike onesuite.com, the price seems to be same everywhere in India, including mobile calls (at least those that I call) and it comes to about 9.1c/min depending on the conversion rate on the day you purchase credit. They also provide a way to use the service from a regular line, but there will be a few cents (like 6, 7c) of connection charge, so if you make a say 12min call, it will `workout to be an extra 0.5c/min.

I've had onesuite for years and have never had a problem, no static or bad connections, so personally I'll vouch for them any time. The VoIP phone system makes it even better now, I think.

I have been using www.teliage.com for the past three months and I can say their service is better than reliance india. It works just like reliance - u can setup multiple phone numbers for pinless dialing. You can also setup shortcuts for frequently called numbers. They charge around 8.4c/min during day time and 7.4c for offpeak hours (I think its 12AM to 7AM CST).
