Free Voip?

Post by HotDog-Cart »

Hey guys. I need a free voip program that will allow me to call to the US from Canada for FREE. (Preferably for a unlimited amount of time)

I tried icall but it has a 5 minute limit per each call.
Skype isnt free anymore. Does anyone know of a voip program that will do what I need it to do, for FREE?

There's always those international calling cards they sell at the grocery store. I think their rates are under 5 cents a minute for most international calls. That's about as close to free as you're going to get for access to the real phone network.

What are you planning on doing with this?

Don't they have just a voice chat, too (I use Pidgin, so I don't know much about what Live Messenger has)?

I use http://www.voipcheap.com/en/index.html on my iPod Touch. 300 minutes a week is plenty.
