Skype to invest in UM

But here, in Greece it is different. I have already explained that dialing the +447937 prefix costs much more than other uk mobile networks. OTE has claimed that this is due to higher termination rates imposed by foreign networks (Jersey telecom in our case).

I am almost certain that BT is going to charge more when calling to 07937. I would also like to mention that voipfone (UK voip provider) does not connect to 07937.

After a few days of emails back and forth between myself and Voipfone.co.uk it looks like they will be connecting to Jersey Telecom based numbers

Their latest reply was...

Thanks for taking the time to contact Voipfone.


We are currently making changes with our routing tables, and negotiating prices.

We’ll see if we can get 07937 routed, at the moment if we enabled that route we would have to charge around 32p per minute (ex VAT).

...Which is more than what they charge for IOM based numbers at 12p (ex VAT)


At least they are a company that listens to it customers, I remember not so long ago they wouldn't connect 07911 WiFi services but after one email with them they now do

For my busniess I use voicetrading the pro part of betamax only for companies. You need a vat number and company registration to buy credit, which is at leasat 500 euro credit. But the rate is only 0,10 euro and it works fine.
The also have very competitive rates to other destinations and their rates to mobile phones in many countries are very low.
The now offer 3 type of services. dail 0001 for a cheap call rate. 00 for a normal rate and 000 for a premium quality. the 000 rate is not really that much higher than the normal or low quality rate.
