Voip Technology

Doesn't VOIP work purely over the Internet, meaning if there is internet you have VOIP? Correct me if I am wrong.

I have a UK number with skype's VOIP system. It works very well... if the internet is good enough to support it.

Yes I use the same - it works perfectly.

Hi, I meant VOIP services wherein you can have a regular phone connection (overlapping lines, hold button, etc.

Great. Thank you

Skype does that.
My dear old mum has no technology past her basic phone, but I can happily call her using skype, just as she can use my skype UK local number to call me.
I can add other calls to the call, making a three way call, and everything else you can do on normal land lines, including voicemail.

You mean Skype which we pay for right?

Skype to skype is free.
Skype to land lines is a charged service, but you can get extremely cheap deals on calls to given countries or areas.
It's very easy to set up, and works very well.
