Facts about betamax VoIP calling services

All the betamax VoIP company’s strategy is to first attract customers by offering very cheap call rates (for a specific or a list of targeted countries) and later when lot of customers buy credit then they start to increase their call rate. It can be applicable from voipwise.com to intervoip.com to smsdiscount.com to freecall.com and so on……. You see, few days ago freecall.com started to offer 0.5 euro cent call to both mobiles and landlines in Bangladesh but just after one week they increased the charge to 1.0 euro cent (for mobile), then within another week it has come to 1.5 euro cent (but still landline charge is 0.5 euro cent). Actually there is no other VoIP provider who can offer more cheaply as well as a fixed call rate to Bangladesh, India and Pakistan and that’s why there is no other alternative without using betamax services.  

So, my suggestion is that don’t rely on a single VoIP company. Suppose, at this moment if you need frequent call to Bangladesh (both landline and mobile) then you can use the cheapest two/three VoIP services so that you can call in very convenient rate. For example:

For landline: it is currently free at lowratevoip.com

For mobile: both freecall.com and poivy.com has 1.5 euro cent

  1. If you want to call Bangladesh (landlines and mobile) , the best way to go is by FizzCall.com
    for £0.25 you can make calls to anywhere in Bangladesh (60 minute).

    Think of this in the long run, £0.25 x 4 = £1.00 for up to 240 minutes. A £1.00 Phone card you can get up to 45 minutes.

  2. It is a good move and will help all expats make calls to their home countries. Hope the internet cafes can get this service so that they will not opt for any illegal VOIPs in future.I just want to inform everyone to a new web site called VoIP Spear (www.voipspear.com) to measure your QoS. It's the Internet's best and most accessible QoS testing service.
