Default What are some good SIP providers?

So with Gingerbread incorporating SIP I was curious if anyone had any preferences in SIP providers.

I've tried sipgate, which seems to work pretty well and i bought a gizmo5 account from ebay, but i don't think they are letting you purchase credits. I tried to put money on the account, but it's been pending for quite some time now and there is no way to contact anyone.

Any other preferences that seem to work well?

Check the gizmo5 forums - you aren't alone there. One post is speculating on how they are no longer adding credit pending an integration with google voice.

I added 10$ worth of credit to my gizmo5 account on Saturday and it finally showed up this morning just wait. If you read their faqs it shows they ask for 12 business hours before they will update your account.

I'm using Sipgate completely free to place AND receive calls -not using up/buying any minutes/credits. I'm using it with Google Voice AND the "Google Voice Callback FREE" app.... thus it's 100% FREE
