I think OP's talking about making free outbound calls to UK cells.

He probably hasn't thought about whether the recipient's paying or not.

As for free incoming calls, I haven't been to too many countries (yet), so not sure if US is the only country that charges both the caller and recipient using cell phones (meaning answering your cell is using your "paid free" minutes as well). Certain Asia countries, such as Japan and Taiwan, incoming calls to cell are free. That's why some budget-conscious cellphone users ask you to call them instead of them calling you.

Voipbuster is one of the "low-budget" European VoIPs. There are quite some offsprings from the same mother "company" (Voipstunt, for example). I tried their earlier product from the States when unlimited outbound calls were offered. Not sure if they had evolved like Skype (Skypeout, Skype Mobile) though.
