FirefoxRocks 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2006 Have you heard? For existing Skype members, you probably received a newsletter about this: Buy now, get more⌠Just US$14.95 * A full year of unlimited calls to any phone in the US and Canada - right from your computer. * More than an hour of international calls*. * Over $50 in coupons to get a Motorola headset, Netgear WiFi phone, and a Polycom speakerphone. And yes, this is a one-time price for an entire year!! I think this is an excellent deal for EVERYONE who calls long-distance to the Canada and US a lot. You can cancel your long-distance phone line (keep local telephone for local calls and emergency dialing). International calls for the popular countries for $0.021 USD/minute. That is an awesome deal! You also get 1 hour of free international calling for those countries! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nightfox1405241487 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2006 Haha... I think Skype feels threatened by AIM Phoneline which AOL released for the same price. The only difference is AIM Phoneline will let you receive calls & give you a number for FREE while Skype charges for that. AIM Phoneline costs $14.95 for UNLIMITED calls and whatnot but at least you get a number for free.[N]F Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FirefoxRocks 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2007 AIM PhoneLine gives you a number for free and more countries eligible for unlimited calling: Canada United States Hong Kong Singapore But read carefully, and you will notice that it is $14.95 USD/MONTH. Skype, on the other hand, is $14.95 USD/year.So one is 12x cheaper, but if you call to Hong Kong and Singapore quite a bit too then I would recommend AIM PhoneLine.
