Thanks to the UK's recent opening up of local phone numbers, it's possible to pick any number you want to be your incoming - you can even set up numbers abroad.
Does that mean anyone can choose a number?

If I start getting sales calls over skype I am going to be miffed beyond belief.

Imagine your VOIP phone ringing then "Would You Be Interested in Double Glazing?".

I also just looked around google to try and find news about this but couldn't. Any chance you can expand on it?

fev will become famous soon enough
it'd take all of an hour to set up the auto dialer and the synthesis software to deal with VOIP...

at work were upgrading our Voip dialer and its going to take hunderds of man hours of work.

and realy what new company has the venture capital for dialers of this kind?? espcaily if there having 100's if not thousands of seats on them.

considering its about £1000 per seat
