Magrathea are pretty much the industry standard for volume. Depending on your requirements, there are many others such as SipGate and Gradwell. There are also people from at least 3 UK trunk providers in this list, including SureVoip, NumberGroup and PowerTel.

Hi Richard,
This topic was discussed a few months back, you can read the thread here;

Since my last post, our chosen UK providers are Magrathea and Simwood.
This inter-op was over a period of 6 months but based on low traffic (<=500 calls a month), so others with higher throughput may wish to chime in.
Magrathea - Over a period of one month, I've not had a single problematic call, routing/quality is always good, and they seem to have almost every dialing code possible for DIDs. I have not dealt with their technical staff yet, but their sales people were friendly and knowledgeable.
Simwood - Over a period of two months, I had 2 call routing issues to international destinations and they are missing at least one number range (Bournemouth). However it's worth noting that Simwood were very quick to help, they identified the routing problem within 5 minutes of me reporting it, and despite being a low profit customer they treated us as a high priority. I've also spoken to numerous staff there, they always come across as friendly and, more importantly, competent. I would have no problem recommending Simwood to others.
For international routing - I'm still in the process of reviewing TelServ and Flowroute, I'd like to use Voxbone but their min spend is too high for us.
I cannot choose between Sim/Mag, they are both extremely good companies - use both (redundancy is a good thing anyway!)
