How Sonetel Compares to Skype
If you’re a long-time Skype user, you know that Skype recently stopped selling new phone numbers and credits. Before that change, a US Skype number typically cost $50/year. In contrast, you can get a US virtual number from Sonetel starting at just $1.79/month—a significant saving over what Skype was charging.
On top of that, Sonetel offers:
