    I have a sister in Grenada. Ten minute phone call costs about $30. Ten minute skype session and the headset has saved me 75% of its cost.

    Sometimes the audio signal gets 'pixelated' or cuts out but with a free service I'm not complaining.

    I love it.

    Is there a monthly bill? How much if so?

    If you use Skype between two computers - the call is free.

    The computerprogram can also call a real phone in.. say.. italy.
    But then it go by internet from your computer, to the nearest Skype-connected gateway to the phone-network - and that's when you pay a fee for calling.


    I often call friends and family in Greenland, Denmark, Australia, Hong Kong and many other places with Skype - never paid anything, as the receiver of the call is also logged onto the network.
