Is there a difference between making a local and international call with your VoIP video phone? The difference may lie in the VoIP provider themselves. Some digital video service providers charge a flat rate for unlimited calling anywhere in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. Some providers charge additional fees for calls made outside your calling area. For a flat rate, some providers can allow you to call anywhere in the world for a fixed length of time. All these rates are minimal compared to standard phone rates. If you really want to maximize your savings, you can make phone calls for free to another Voip Video Phone having the same service provider that you have.
