小小补充:
Transfer phone# to Freephoneline cost $25+taxes.
Buying SIP setting from Freephoneline (allow u to use your own ATA or SIP clients for computer/tablet/mobile phones) is $50+taxes, NOT FREE**.
VOIP.MS provide really low long distance calling rate at good sound quality, but minimum deposit is US$25 (not sure about tax)
** Anyone with:
- not much phone call, or
- only few short calls per month, or
- only stay in one city for few short years (u'll need to pay Freephoneline another $50+T for a different area code phone# after u move)
