Well, a thing like bellster is illegal in any country with a telecomm law (to
be read:
all countries).
If you do it in a low volume fashion, it's very difficult for the telco or the
regulators
to catch up, also you can argue that you are not doing any economic profit of
that. Let's
say, even if bellster uses +240 min/day of your phone, that hardly is
noticeable for
them.
To the private intra-company VoIP, you can make a VoIP call from one office to
another
and then hop to the PSTN without any problem, it's company only traffic. I do
that, and
the telco or the regulators will never come up. Also, if they come they will
have an
incredibly hard time proving you that.
BUT, if you start making economic profit (selling) a toll bypassing service
without a
gov't permit, the regulators will come to nock your door in a very short time,
and you
WILL have a very big fat problem. As example, in Mexico, last month the
goverment closed
and seized the equipment of (the major -almost a monopoly- telco complained
about having
competition, and the gov't quickly served them as allways) 13 of 14 established
VoIP biz
for not having the legal permits in place (the only left already had a permit).
