Hi all,

I am visiting Europe and need a VOIP system, that gives me an Australian number I can call other Australian numbers from.

I looked at Teams, and they bundle with Telstra (Australian local provider), but the cost is high, and the checklist / setup list MS sent me was something that you’d almost need a certificate in infrastructure just to setup. They are living in a dreamland.

I then tried a company called Krispcall. It’s IDEAL in every situation, except a bit pricey, and it just Does. Not. Work. Firefox, Android, Chrome, etc. Fail after fail after fail. What a shame, it looked so good.

Does anyone have any recommendations? I’d really appreciate a nod in a proven directly.

Another called Callhippo caught my eye. I’m just not sure, after being burned by Krispcall.

UPDATE! Solved!

I can use WiFi calling on my normal phone, and it’s used as though it’s in Australia, incurring no extra costs. How easy is that!

    I know the OP is using wifi calling as a solution. But since we’re talking voip providers.

    I use voxbeam. But they’re wholesale, you need a fixed IP for incoming calls, their support are good. But they’re probably not going to want to help you with end-user type questions. They only support SIP. But, pricing is generally good and plenty of reasonably priced DID options.
