This is one of the best plans I have ever known about. I have previously recommended Vbuzzer, a Canadian company offering competitive pricing (and generally good quality). But nothing compares to Skype — for two simple reasons. Firstly, it is a decentralized peer-to-peer network, and secondly, they are more reputable (not to mention owned by eBay).
The offer you see above can’t be matched by Vbuzzer’s $2.26/month outgoing plan. The reliability is much better on Skype, and the destination can be anywhere in Canada or the US, which makes it particularly useful for Canadians with a large contact list in long-distance locations.
You don’t even need to be calling from the US or Canada; you could travel overseas and call your relatives in North America on the same plan. (Now, why wouldn’t they be using Skype?) Skype To Go is also included, which lets you use PSTN access numbers to make long distance calls on your Skype account, just like phone cards.
Now, there’s just one condition: “unlimited” is really “virtually unlimited”, because it would be somewhat unjust to be using Skype’s PC-to-phone calling 24/7/365. Thus, they’ve imposed a soft “fair usage” limitation of 10,000 minutes per month.
Don’t be disappointed. Look what 10,000 minutes really means:
Unless you’re replacing your landline with Skype and talking for hours on end, the “Unlimited US & Canada” plan is perfect for your long distance needs.




(No Ratings Yet)Everybody’s talking about Skype and on Skype. But there are things about Skype that we don’t necessary like: connection fees for outgoing landline calls, inflexible Skype Credit amounts ($14 CAD and $35 CAD), and the fact that often, other people’s calls are being routed through your computer.
Don’t get me wrong… I do like Skype.
However, I prefer and use Vbuzzer for truly inexpensive long-distance phone calls, definitely cheap BuzzMe Toronto phone numbers, and the flexibility to integrate with a PBX system like Asterisk or 3CX.
Vbuzzer’s PC-to-PSTN calls are only 1 cent per minute to China, 1.5 cents per minute to Canada and the US, and 1.7 cents per minute to Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, and the United Kingdom.
Vbuzzer also offers $2.26 USD / month landline phone numbers that can be forwarded to any other phone, ring multiple locations simultaneously, or simply for use with their downloadable software client (Windows only).
Currently, there is a $25 per year special offer to existing landline subscribers, for unlimited incoming AND outgoing phone calls to the Toronto area.
Vbuzzer is a Canadian company, so maybe there’s something nice about that. It’s run by a small business called Softroute Corporation. The $0.26 in the $2.26 / month plans comes from the 13% PST+GST applicable in Ontario.
They also offer other VoIP-based services including cell phone callback, calling cards, and easy-to-use PC faxing.
