So don't throw it away yet

I Have tried to call Um with voipbuster. Most of my attempts were not succesful and was also charged many times.....

I agree I wouldn't throw the UM SIM away just yet.

I wrote UM customer service an email asking for recommendations on inexpensive carriers for calling from US. No answer yet. Access from the other side of the pond may be better than from here.

What is a Betamax brand?

As I see it from the FAQ, Just Voip requires computer access. That won't work for all folks trying to reach me.

DialNow does not have a US number. Does have Canadian #s.

Betamax is about 20 VoIP brands, like Voipbuster, Voipcheap, etc

comparison of tariffs on http://backsla.sh/betamax

You can forward the VoIP account to a destination number, and you can forward a DID number to the SIP address of most of these accounts. IPKall has more or less stopped working for me, but should work when called from a US number sending Caller ID. Or you can try Freedigits. Or there are free ones in some other countries

CBW introduced new rates from today. UM is now 56 cents.min! The rate almost doubled!

Has anyone managed to receive callback on the Estonian sim or is it me only who has this trouble??

herkdrvr · **TravelSim & CBW -** 14-06-2007, 22:34

So this is a good question... anyone using Travelsim with CBW successfully????

Also, can anyone speak to the reliability of SMS traffic on the TravelSim? The reliability on the UM card is stinko, if you ask me. Thanks!

But, it does force me to create a reach me work around, for my friends and family in the US.

I have people call my VOIP phone at home, which is direct forwarded to my onesuite account. Then, then are connected directly to onesuite, and press 10#, which auto dials my +423 number, and connects. Onesuite costs .25$ a minute to +423, so that is much less than the .56$ that CBW are now chargin.

So, what card to I get going forward, the number is of no import to me, I just need a fairly cheap card to work.

How does onesuite bill? Per minute? per second?

onsuite FAQ: We use full-minute increments to calculate your usage, with partial minutes rounded up to the next full minute on each call.

Onesuite has a VOIP. What about something like a free did and pbxes.com?

I am using several did's and pbxes. See this thread http://www.prepaidgsm.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2064

It works fine but for a novice a bit complicated. I am although using it as my total phone communication system. Customers call me on my DID numbers from several countries. My normal voip phone rings and parallel after 2-3 rings my IOM mobile also rings. So whenever in the office I pickup using my normal phone and when away my mobile.

Andy gave an example of an other solution. Forward your betamax account (voipbuster, sipdiscount, internetcall etc) to your IOM number. Have a did number forward to the betamax number. It's simple and it works.

For United Mobile Lichtenstein numbers Betamax is not very good. I have not been able to call my UM number using betamax.
