Yes I tried it and it works fine. But you have the same limitations as any other SIP provider, you won't have a local phone number.

what kind of number i will get then
-
what number can i call?? US only or international ??

You'll have to look at the list they have available. SIPStation is just another SIP provider. They have numbers in areas where they can acquire them.
Your telephone system in your country is super locked down, so you've said. This prevents SIP providers from being able to provide phone numbers in your local area, and allows them to maintain their monopoly.
You'll be able to call anywhere in the world using a SIPStation phone number, you'll just have to pay the associated long distance charges that go along with it.
That said, you might not be able to make long distance calls on a free account.

ok i see
thank you -
When I try to find a number it only offers me USA or Canada.
When you try it might offer you more based on your location.
-
i hope so, but i think the only number you can get is US or canadian phone number, and you can only call US or Canadian phone nubers

Calling elsewhere would cost a fortune to the provider. Easily tens or hundreds of thousdands of dollars even for a since line.
