I would like to get some details about voip providers in local germany. I am moving to germany and looking for some unlimited land+mobile minutes from provider. I also need a german DID with unlimited inbound and flat monthly rate. If anyone know anything, please reply.
I've been quite successful with www.sipgate.de. You can access their English language site from www.sipgate.co.uk. If you're not in Germany, you can still get a 01801 number, which should cost the same as a local call anywhere in Germany. Sipgate's DIDs are completely FREE. Mine have been up for around two years, but occasionally they'll be out a for a few hours.
For calls to Germany, I use several of the US providers. Landlines are 1.2 cents/minute. For cellphones, some providers are cheaper than others. E+ (+49177) runs just under 20c/minute on one of the providers I'm using (it's running automated on a home-built LCR right now, so I don't have that info handy). Prices vary between VOIP providers as well as called network. Per-minute rates are so high because the cost of termination is carried by the caller and incoming calls to German cell-phones are free to the callee. I doubt there is a single plan in existence that allows for unlimited calling to German cellphones.
That said, for my needs, the prepaid per-minute plans are perfect -- I'm doing between 200-300 minutes to Germany each month for less than $5.
See what you *really* need, but don't expect to be able to cut cell-calls below 15c/minute. But since you're moving there, you may want to look at the landline plans available -- some are quite attractive, as I hear from family over there.
