Hi there

I am totally clueless as in to how I can utilize Voxalot services.
I hope someone can guide me on how to setup and use Voxalot with SKYPE In numbers.

Is it possible to setup a PBX on Voxalot?

Thanks!Have a nice day!

Why not purchase a simple SIP number instead of using Skype In...

Ok, I'll ask the near-sacrilegious Skype question instead. For me the reason is that there is a tariff issue - they count a certain mobile as a landline for the moment, which could mean calls for a few pence a minute using callback, even while roaming in loads of countries.

The nice thing about using SIP providers is you don't like one you just switch to another, or even doing multiple routes based on prefixes, you're not limited to just skype...

Listen to the wise words of evilbunny, there is nothing better in my opinion than using an open standard.

Ok. I didn't mean to start a philosophical discussion about the merits of different systems, especially when I agree, merely to pragmatically exploit Skype's tariff to make cheap mobile calls worldwide. Maybe I can find a SIP company with the same tariff or double forward the call.
