Rep Power: 0  |  Cheap way of communicating? Hi, My family is in UK and I want a cheap way of communicating with my contacts in the UK. I am planning to spend a lot of time in Chennai and hope to visit UK 3-4 times a year. I know a bit about Skype. UK subscription gives me a Skypein number. I have broadband connection in Chennai. If I buy a skype phone which does not need a computer to connect and plug it into the modem/router, will I be able to receive calls in Chennai when the Skypein number is dialled from a mobile/landline in the UK? Obviously it should be a local call rate for the caller. Secondly, can I dial UK numbers or any other "free" numbers from my Skypephone in Chennai, depending on the subscription I take? Does Skype or India block such calls based on from where the Skypephone is situated? Advice appreciated. VeeCee |
