So I'm a month late! All I'm after is recommendations on good providers
(ones which will allow 0114 in bound numbers) and good desktop software.
I've tried ekiga but that seems to want to use a single dial in/out
provider who doesn't bill in pounds.

I want to play with voip a bit first before committing to it and getting
Asterisk up and running.
