The present document describes a method and system for placing a VoIP call from a user using a user voice interface device in a given geographical area to a contact using a contact voice interface device in a distant geographical area. The method comprises: assigning an individual local access phone number per geographical area thereby resulting in a list of individual access phone numbers; the user placing a call from the user voice interface device to the individual local access phone number assigned to the given geographical area thereby initiating a first leg of the call from the user voice interface device to the bridge server through the PSTN; switching the call from the PSTN to a given URL which points to a bridge server accessible through the Internet; the user providing the identity of the contact to which the call must be completed, the identity of the contact corresponding to the contact voice interface to which a second leg of the call will be established; the bridge server establishing the second leg of the call from the bridge server to the contact voice interface device; and the bridge server bridging the first and second legs of the call thereby establishing the VoIP call from the user to the contact.
