    Any good alternatives? I'm with Goldfish and they have great pricing, but I don't think they have full control of their operations, they come across very much like an MVNO.

    Goldfish is using Digiweb trunk + another 2 UK trunks.

    Goldfish use Digiweb, so to a certain extent they are very much like a MVNO in the sense that the numbers they allocate to you are resold. They do not have an operations centre as such since they do not physically control their network or their infrastructure or their physical connections to the PSTN. They would probably not have full control to the physical side of things.

    Digiweb is probably the best alternative I'm afraid to say, some may think I rave about them all the time but there really is no other provider offering IP telephony backed by their own network in Ireland. You would probably find that they are cheaper then Goldfish, however Goldfish do provide you with PBX capabilities.

    However, Goldfish do have their advantages. They provide a pbx service, based on their own custom made software, and use Digiweb's numbers. It just means you have one extra person to have to rely on to keep your phones working, which is obviously not a good thing.

    Digiweb had problems but now it seems to be fully working. What kind of service digiweb is selling? It is only trunk or hosted PBX as well?

    Going a bit OT but do you have any more information on that outage domeld?

    I know Digiweb sell sip trunks but they also sell regular sip accounts for residential, usually used for the voice service with their Metro broadband service. I enquired about this when I had no static ip and they had no problem setting up a regular sip account that would register instead of a sip trunk. I am not sure if they offer a hosted pbx service however.

    According to their website they do:

    http://www.digiweb.ie/wholesale/products/hosted-voice

    I think their main business in VoIP is Metro and sip trunks though
