Im using Skype for nearly 2 years. I used SkypeOut to call my cousin Durgaa Vaishnavi in UK / Scotland, which was damn cheap, ie., it was less than Rs. 2 /min for a Landline number. Suddenly the university(Strathclyde) where she is doing her Ph.D., replaced the ordinary phone lines with a shared one, to which the call rated from SkypeOut was around Rs. 8 /min which was again equal to a call made from BSNL landline from here. As we used to talk for hours, I was looking for someways, where SkypeIn comes into picture.
"With SkypeIn, you can get your own, regular phone number. So if your friends who aren’t using Skype want to call you by dialing a regular number, you can still receive the call in Skype/SkypeIn. No matter where you are"
0141 416 0313 is my UK number(SkypeIn), so anyone in UK can call me from their Landline/mobile which is damn cheap for them. I have recd' calls from London, Warwick & Glasgow as of now, and the people who are calling me feels it very cheap. Note : Its not only a number for people to call from UK, from anywhere in the world I can receive call just by adding 0044 to the number
There is something like PhoneIn from Yahoo, similar to SkypeIn. There the UK numbers are sold out. So im just waiting for that to try....
