Live Free. Live Happy.

Betamax, the company behind low cost voip services such as VoipDiscount has now come out with another offering Actionvoip. While Actionvoip does not provide free calls to any destination, it does provide the cheapest rate to call up Indian landlines (46 paise / minute) and mobiles (66 paise / minute). This is so far the cheapest rates I have ever come across for calling Indian phones.

Betamax is a VOIP company which in my opinion provides generally the lowest calling rates. They have rolled out many VOIP websites. For a complete list of Betamax services and their price comparisons, you might visit the below websites:

Based on the rates to the country you are planning to call and the number of free-days you would like to have, you could decide on which service of theirs to use. Certain things I would like to highlight:

• Watch out for the freedays. Some provide 0 days, some 90, some 120 and I think only one (VOIPBusterPro) offers 365 days a year (but there is a catch as they charge 3.9 euro cents connection fee per call).
• Though they claim to provide VoIP-In numbers for inbound calling, this feature is not available for everyone. I think it is only available for those calling from some specific countries.
• There has been some credit card fraud related cases with Betamax. I am not sure what had happened. But it might be a good idea to use something like Paypal rather than your credit card.
• Lastly, from what I have heard, customer service at Betamax really sucks. I even remember sending them some query and not getting back any response. Which means if you are facing problems with your account, there might be nobody to help you out.
