Full Review:
Lingo is a great all-around value but is a particularly good choice for those that want to call internationally often. Lingo has been around longer than any of the other VoIP providers that we recommend, so you know you can rely on them. Their World Max plan includes calls to over 80 countries throughout the world, including mobile phone numbers in several locations (see below for a complete list). The World Max plan comes in at $23.95 per month and also includes unlimited calling throughout the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Even if you never or rarely call internationally, Lingo's price, functionality and reliability make it a great choice.

If you only plan to make calls within the US, Canada, and Puerto Rico, their America Unlimited plan, at $19.95 per month, is a better choice, though you'll miss out on some shipping and activation discounts.

Lingo is currently offering its new World Max subscribers over $100 in savings with a discounted rate of $4.95 per month for the first month, free activation ($29.95 value), free shipping (a $14.95 value) and a free Linksys adapter ($50 value), plus a no risk 30-day money back guarantee. The America Unlimited plan gets you free equipment, the discounted first month, and the 30-day guarantee, but you will pay shipping and activation. You should note that for both plans they will charge a $99.95 fee if you cancel after 30 days.

It's very close in price to Vonage's monthly world rate (Lingo is $1.00 less) and includes more countries, though Vonage's cancellation fee is considerably less. Here's a complete list of the countries covered by the World Max plan:
