LocalPhone is surely one of those startups which stands out in today's competitive cheap international calls market. The only reason is they have access numbers which makes it one of the most easiest cheap international call service to use today.
Finally they added my country, Singapore to the list and that's not all, In total LocalPhone has added over 41 countries to their service. In USA, they have added 80 new location and access numbers across 21 states
What this means is you can now get local access numbers to make cheap VOIP Calls on the go. With over 66000 access numbers all across the world, Local Phone is perhaps the biggest access number based VOIP service in the world.
We wrote a post on Local Phone a few days back, which should get you started.
Local Phone has a sleek interface and the best part is if you switch countries you can change your access number on the fly from your dashboard, which will immediately let you make calls locally in that country. For e.g If you’re travelling, work in a different area code, or just want to share your account with friends and family in a different city or country it’s easy to get a new list of local access numbers at any time. Just log in to your Localphone account and update “Your Location” in the dashboard sidebar.
I am sure most of you have difficulty to understand how Local Phone actually works.
1) You have a friend in India whom you want to call but you live in London
2) You signup at Local Phone
3)Now go to dashboard, Add your landline/Mobile phone from where you will be calling Local Phone Access number. That means, they won't ask your for PIN code each time.
4)Now add your friend's number, Local Phone will immediately assign a local UK (London) number for you to call.
5) Now Pickup your phone and dial that london access number.
6) Your friend's phone will start to ring and now start talking.
Local Phone offers very competitive rates if not the most cheapest. India is at around 5 cents per minute, not bad.
We received a lot of good feedback about this service and now since it's available for me in Singapore, am going to use it more often. If you are a existing user, please let us know your comments on the overall Quality/Service and reliability of LocalPhone.

@Anonymous - make sure you have selected your VoIP account using the “Currently viewing:” option just below the main menu.
Once switched you can select "Settings" from the main menu to view all of your details. If you’re viewing your VoIP account and browse to our device guides all of your details will be filled in there too.
Hey Localphone, community, i live in Rwanda found in Central Africa, can i be able to use Localphone?, i need your answer please
@Gigabyte - we don’t have local access numbers in Rwanda yet, but you can still get the same great rates if you have a broadband Internet connection by signing up and then upgrading to a free Localphone VoIP Account.
Once upgraded we have a number of device guides to help you get started. If calling from your computer I recommend the excellent, free X-Lite softphone (our guide).
I use Localphone from Switzerland. However, the quality of service stinks. It worked fine calling Swidish numbers but not Swiss ones. This has been true both using the local access numbers and SIP/VoIP.
I won't to reduce my calling rates above all for Swiss mobile phones. Can anyone recommend such a service?
@Martin - sorry to hear you’ve been having trouble calling Switzerland. Whenever quality issues come up we encourage customers to fill out a fault report which goes direct to our engineers.
We’re usually pretty quick to fix issues and get back to you with a positive result. I’ve forwarded your concerns but please still fill out a report as these problems are usually local, and so we can let you know when we’ve fixed the issue.

inbound sip is free
calling into PSTN gateway is free
why would anyone sane pay to receive inbound SIP calls via PSTN gateway????
I have recently learnt that just voip and smart voip they have same parent company, Betamax.
Why they are charging two different rates and cheating with the people instead of offering genuinly same rates to both service users.
I am very disappointed after learning that I was paying twice using just voip for india as compared to smart voip..
Could u please explain!!
