This service is run by Finarea SA like VoipBuster and NetAppel but they have targetted it to attract UK custommers and thus they have different FREE countries (mainly around Europe, Australia, New Zealand and United States) you can call with their application, I have not tested this service as to use it with asterisk, but I think they'll suffer from the problems that have been commented for NetAppel.

Now they are also offering dial-in (voip-in) numbers to some of the accounts, so that you can get calls from regular phone lines into your voip line.



You can configure VoipCheap to work with SIP using the same parameters as in VoipBuster:
Domain/realm: sip1.voipbuter.com
SIP Proxy: sip1.voipbuter.com

use your voipcheap's username and password

I tried to call my cellphone and it worked. I also have VoipCheap's VOIP-IN number, so I tried to call it from my cell. It also works fine.

Comments from testers or editions to the entry are welcome.
--
It is expensive to the user to receive calls to the voipcheap number and until recently not many phones have been compatablile with the service.
You can find drivers for your voip phone on usb phones


For voipcheap.com you can configure your sip peer as this:

[voipcheap]
type=peer
username=voipcheap_username
fromuser=voipcheap_username
fromdomain=sip.voipcheap.com
realm=sip.voipcheap.com
secret=voipcheap_password
host=sip.voipcheap.com
canreinvite=no
qualify=no
disallow=all
allow=g729

333No Support

As a customer of theirs I'm disappointed, I emailed their support three times over three weeks with a question that should be simple for them to answer and not even an acknowledgment. I'll pay a little more if I have to but I'm going to take my custom somewhere else.

I tried this, but it was disconnected a soon as the phone was picked up. I removed a few linies from the script, and then it worked OK.
Here is what I use:

voipcheap
realm=sip.voipcheap.com
host=sip.voipcheap.com
username=<myname>
secret= <mypassword>
type=peer
qualify=no


Enjoy !
