recently they changed their pricing and their rates ! They added a connection fee to every landline call ! The cost are much higher now and people seem to complain about it !
"Everybody can talk for free" was Skype motto ! It seem that the company isn't respecting those words anymore !

Did you try gizmo? They are similar to skype but allows you to make calls to landlines and mobiles to about 60 countries. It is really cool software and provides good clarity. Try it out at www.gizmoproject.com

I missed out one thing. The calls to landlines and mobiles are free to over 60 countries. You just need to get the person whom you want to call get registered with that site. You can get more details regarding that at http://www.gizmoproject.com/learnmore-allcallsfree.html.
