VOIP over 3G still costs long distance + credits?!
Truphone works well enough for me except for the fact that you need two different accounts (and two sets of credits) if you have an iPad as well. Skype uses the same account across your devices. Kind of backwards?
VOIP over 3G is another matter: I live in Alberta and used VOIP over 3G to call another local Alberta number but Truphone routed my call (without warning) through a number in Ontario meaning Ill get charged long distance from my carrier on top of Truphone credits. Ive emailed them 3 times over 3 weeks for an explanation but zero response.
I just subscribed to a monthly Skype plan. I can use it on my Mac, iPhone and iPad. Ill use up my Truphone credits and then hit the delete button.
