Hi, I work from home, making calls to UK and Northern Ireland. We are seriously thinking of moving to Spain, and I will keep my job. My question is, which would be the cheapest option for me? Have looked at Vonage etc., but don't quite understand the ins and outs. Would need a package that allows me to make unlimited calls from Spain to UK and NI, need to know costs of connection, and do you need to be with a phone co or broadband, or what! Please help, am growing more confused by the minute,

Many thanks

Most of the services work in such a way that if you register from the UK (you might have to be on an IP address recognised as a UK IP - some providers don't count AOL for example) and register a UK number then all calls you make to and from that number will be charged as UK calls as the package charges UK calls.

All you'd need when you get to Spain is a decent broadband connection.

Thanks, will have to delve some more, I think.

Skype... check their prices out for calling abroad. www.skype.com

Skype are usually dearer than the competition.

Have a look at. www.voipstunt.com, www.voipbuster.com, www.voipcheap.co.uk or www.sipdiscount.com

Once you have paid a small initial credit, you can call many locations for free, they also give you a incoming number for free, unlike Skype Hype.
