Not everyone in
world has sufficient internet access capability to take advantage of benefits from VoIP. Shoot....most folks are lucky to have 1 phone line for that matter. This dose of reality kinda puts dampers on "VoIP will take over world" conspiracy theory.But hold on there Junior....the little guy may just have found a hero.
Mail2speak, a US-based company, is offering users cut-throat rates to place international calls. But wait until you learn how they do it....read on.
For example......
* You can call US and UK from South Africa for R1.35 a minute. Telkom charges between double and triple price for these calls. Calls to Australia from SA are also about 50% cheaper.
* You can call anywhere in United States and most of Europe from Malaysia for just 45 sen per minute compared to 98 sen per minute at present charged by a local company using land lines. For mobile phones, calls will be 68 sen per minute as opposed to 98 sen. A call to China costs 50 sen per minute on a fixed line compared to 1.98 RM by fixed line charged by a local company.
* You can call anywhere in United States and much of Europe from Brazil for around 0.33 BRL.
* You can call Japan from Italy for 0.11 EUR......the US for 0.08 EUR.
* You can call India from UAE for 2.63 AED.......the UK for 1.74 AED.
Those are just a small sample of what is available.
How?
What makes service unique is that unlike other Internet telephony applications, mail2speak does not require a microphone, a software download or a dedicated broadband connection with special equipment. All that is required to use service is access to website and an open phone line or cellphone to receive a call. You can place an international call from any phone or mobile/PDA at super low rates.
