IPKall offers a free DID, and nothing else -- i.e., there is nothing on its website for sale, no customer service, etc. I think it then just forwards the call. There is very little to configure. Perhaps VoipCheap doesn't like double-forwarding from IPKall. I know there was a period where the Finarea companies were blocking pbxes, apparently because a pbxes subscriber tried to set up a callback business using pbxes and a Finarea company.
Anyway, I don't mind using pbxes to do this. It seems to work just fine, and it offers some flexibility. For example, you could set up a Ring Group so that the DID would ring all of your SIM cards simultaneously. Then you wouldn't have to bother with remote forwarding.
I do have a Freedigits account, but I also use it with pbxes. It's the DID I use for remote call forwarding.
