Vonage Launches V-Access

Vonage has launched a new service today called V-Access. The service is pretty interesting. Say you are in the UK and need to call your sister (who is a Vonage customer) in the U.S. You could use a calling card, Skype, etc. And now you can use a local number in the UK to call your sister in the U.S. This service is currently available in the United States, Canada, France, Italy, Mexico, Spain, and the UK. I think even better is the fact that you can call 800#'s which you can't easily do from overseas.

V-Access provides an access number to make calls to any Vonage phone number (or an 800-number) without paying long distance or international fees. With V-Access, callers do not need to have a Vonage line to call a Vonage number (or an 800-number) for the price of a local call.

Best part? You don't even need to be a Vonage customer to use the service.
