First of all to the development team you guys rock bigsmile.png great software.
Up until recently I used callserve for my Canada to UK calls but Skype has the edge so I'm a convert.

For the computer challenge friends in the UK I have cut their calling costs to me using X-lite free world instead of them having to pay up to 15 UK pence a minute for a call to Canada they call a 0845 # and dial my user # and call into the pc for as low as 1 UK penny a minute. I have also set up a 0870 # at a slightly hight rate 1.5p that just calls me direct without the dialing of the user number. One program to do it all a true VOIP-PSTN WOULD BE AMAZING, and see off the competition. Just a though.

Have a great day

If I understand your request, you want others to be able to call you on Skype from PSTN, right?
If this is what you are requesting then you should search the forum for SkypeIn which will do exactly what you want though it is not released yet, and will probably cost some money.
I don't know if it will be one time payment, subscription or what.

Yes you got it. What I have at the moment for incomming calls is xlite this allows people to call me from the UK without international rates. Very cool. Will do the search thanks for the hint. Im new to Skype so reading all the posts is a hard long job!!!!! bigsmile.png

What I have found is that people do not notice that the call is PC to Normal telephone unlike callserve that I was using. This is a great program.
