i've been using them for years and never really had any issues. comes in very handy if you have to call customer support when you're abroad or someone who isn't connected to internet and is abroad.

Waste money!

It only works locally. International (ex. Vietnam) call is not working (even not ringing the number) but it deducts money immediately. I DO NOT recommend!

HotVoip is the worst service

HotVoip is the worst service, the network is too poor, there is no customer service at all if you need support. sometimes as soon it starts ringing, it will deduct you balance and there is no place to compain. I do not recommend to anyone.

I was using it since years, now THIS!

I was using it since yeats. but now. i charged up with paypal 10 € and my money was not charged on the account! After contacting the service i didnt get respond. I had to do a call immidiately, so i charge up with klarna banc transfer. this money arrived at my hotvoip account so i was able to do a call.

I ask paypal to solve this problem with payment. after seconds i ve got a mail from hotvoip, why i have done this.

after this case the support empty my hotvoip account and now i have lost 20€ and they deny to give me this back. i hope paypal will take my money back so i will lose 10€.

hotvoip (betamax) became the worst company.

Worse I connection I ever had

Worse connection I ever had. Please stay away from these provider. Cheaters. If any one wants to try, best pay through pay-pal, at least you can claim the money back if you are not happy.

Stay away: Bad service and non existent tech support

Stay away! I created an account with 10 Euros. I was never able to use it to make a call on my IPhone. When I submitted a ticket, I got a standard response - this is a very cheap service and sometimes calls do not go through. No attempt to resolve my issue. I asked for a refund to which I got a reply - choose another of our VoIP brands. To me this means more wasted time and $$ because I no longer trust their brands. Their web interface is also terrible - takes a long time to find out how to reach the customer "service" and log in a ticket.

fake and scam. I paid credit and cannot call

fake and scam. I paid credit, filled money into account and cannot call international. I can make only national calls which is pointless and useless. I can call only from Australia to Australia. I cannot call international to other country, for example Bulgaria or any number outside. It is scam! You can dial only phones into your own country!
