Re: Low Call costs from Spain to UK
If it is, they have given you some numbers like 1234.
Have you put in your countrycode in your phone number also ?
When you press validate, your phone will ring, pick it up and put the number in on the phone dial pad, the lady will then say "thank you your number has been validated".

Leave off the first 0 of your area code, like 0044(0)1206blahblah.

All I can suggest is click on help in the Voipcheap window then click on feed back and tell them you can`t validate the number.

Re: Low Call costs from Spain to UK
Hi i found a company called REDNETwifi, and got a sim card which gives me cheap calls to the UK from my mobile. They have some good information on the website. www.rednetwifi.com.
Hope this helps.
Hope this helps.
6.29 cents per min weekend calls, no mention of primetime ?
Spanish mobiles 27 cents per min, I can talk for 1 hour for the cost of 1 min on Vodafone Esp, talk 60 pay 1.
PS you don`t work for them do you ?

Re: Low Call costs from Spain to UK
Hello, thanks for that information on Vodafone ESP, and yes it is a friends company, i will forward your points to him as i think he would be intrested in this information?
Are the packages listed on Vodafones website? I looked at this page http://www.idiomas.vodafone.es/ingle...es_espana.html but could not see any tariffs.
VOIP programs are good, i have used most before i moved out to Spain, whats the main one people are using?
Any infromation would be great.
Thanks.

You will probably get them on the Vodafone es site, or in the booklets in the shops, page 16.

Well I said Id let you know how I got on,nothings simple when I do it what a bloody performance Iv had. I downloaded the voicecheap has you know,simple,they sent an e-mail to confirm,from this mail I had to follow the link ,straight foward ,then they said they would ring in 30 secs,NO NO NO NOTHING , I tried several times ,nothing. So then I checked Norton and all settings,everything fine,tried again and again,still would not work.I used it to phone Spain and it worked for the free minute,so I knew it was working. Then I sent them two mails to customer sevices,no response at all.
Next step I went on Andys sign on,took about 5 minutes to get it working ,paid some credit on and away it went,no problem.So I was certain it works, back to my sign on,tried again and again nothing.
So then I went into the file on the voipcheap,chose to swap users,so then Id got Andys account on my sign on ,went into file add user,added myself has user, took about five minutes ,set myself up with a new user name, got the flipping phone call in about two minuted flat ,entered the four digit number ,done.
have you fell off yer chair yet 
What should have taken less than 15 mins,took hours, anyway its all set up now,Iv just got to configure how to get rid of the original name I used.
