Phone calls via Internet?

Question

In Australia, what is the best deal for using Broadband (I'm in victoria / country) for phone calls?

I feel so confused about all the deals being offered and I need it to be as cheap as possible, or I can't afford it. HELP!

I constantly feel overwhelmed with the amount of information the different companies give out.

Is it OK to have say one company for landline-rental, another company for BB connection, and another company for the internet phone connection??

Thanks!!!

Answer 2

The best deal is not always the best product.  I have tried numerous products and here is what I have found:

VOIP lines through telephone providers are generally the best quality, but also often the most expensive.

In my opinion Skype has the best value proposition with regards to call quality and cost.  However, a google search will reveal tons of providers which are slightly cheaper.

Answer 6

There is a great deal through a company called engin $15 per month unlimited local and national calls and around 15c per second mobile calls.  I have optus for broadband and engin for voip connection, don't need land line when you have the voip internet phone. I found a good website a few weeks ago, cant remember what it was called but I had typed in " best phone and broadband deals" it was an independant site was not through the big companies hope you can find it.
