[asterisk-biz] Looking for cheap DDI VOIP trunking in India and Pakistan.

[Jonathan H]

Thank you Eric,

That is disappointing, but I just want to confirm or clarify something: Are
you saying that it is almost impossible to provide a DDI number, which will
then trunk to my Asterisk server?

In which case, would I be right in thinking my only other option would be
to find the cheapest country that Indians can dial, which also DOES allow
DDI -> SIP and then do it that way round?

It's all starting to feel like a bit of a headache!
