Best mode of calling India other than skype

Post new topic

Hello everyone,

i was wondering if anyone could help me with a good mode of calling India that is not too heavy on the pocket apart from skype.

Currently i am using a normal STC sim which costs me around 1.75 SR/min. Any other specific sim that offers a cheaper tariff?

Regards...

I'm no expert but isn't it true that an Indian sim on roaming is a far cheaper way of calling India? I thought that was the case in Dubai at least.

Not really gashead.

I have a vodafone sim and calling to India from that sim will cost me INR 120/min..So that really isn't a great option.

STC,

Was checking out Siprotel. Do we need a specific sim/phone for this service?
