subsidised calling to UK mobile

Hi all,

Does anyone know of an inexpensive way to call the UK (mobile) from India? - current rates are ~Rs 9/min.

I'm open to voip programs like skype etc. Any good calling cards? It would be ideal to have one cell phone option and one computer calling option. Thanks!

Skype's free. I thought that Airtel prepay mobiles were Rs 6.4 per minute?

Try out a Sify i-Way or an e-port as it is now called. They offer the cheapest ISP calling and uses VoIP for the same.
