Nymgo Bangladesh, Sri Lanka Unlimited Calling plan expried

As we all know, Nymgo is the world's leading voip provider offering unlimited calling plan. Apart from that Nymgo is also known for offering very low rates to various destination in world. Specially calling to India, Nymgo provides very cheap rates (1.3 cents per minute).

Sometime back, Nymgo stopped its unlimited plan for India, Pakistan. However it slashed its Pay as you go rates so that people can still enjoy cheap rates to these destinations.

Now, Nymgo's unlimited plan for Bangladesh and Sri Lanka has expired. And to keep its low rates promise Nymgo has again lowered its Pay as you go rates for calling these destination.

Present Nymgo rate for calling Bangladesh : 4.9 cents per minute.
Present Nymgo rate for calling Sri Lanka : 7.4 cents per minute.

But this time I guess Nymgo is not offering a good deal for these countries. Specially for calling Bangladesh. With the recent changes in Bangladesh Voip rules, many other voip providersare offering very cheap rates. Recently Vopian decreased its rate to just 2.1 cents per minute. SmartVoip is also offering low rate of just 2 cents per minute.

Well Nymgo this time you are not the cheapest and you need to lower your rate a bit further if you want to keep your promise.

Guys, if you know a better deal for calling these countries ( Bangladesh and Sri Lanka) then do let us know, so that we all can make cheap voip phone calls.

Hi,

Voip is growing and so are the calling rates falling. Apart from cheaper calling rates, what does it offer...? Lets today talk about getting a free incoming number from another country. Suppose if you are living in India and doing your business in USA, what number will you give to your customers (a Indian number....lol..no ways..). Its better to give them a number of their country so that they can connect to you free...!!

Apart from that, many a times while registering at some websites you require to give your phone number. Then too, its better to give them your virtual phone number (just give them your free incoming phone number). Now comes the major point, many trial voip offers can be completed with this number. I mean you can receive the verification call on this number, and get the free voip credit. I guess many voip websites are offering such voip trial offers (surf this blog and you will find many).

RingoMax : Working Voip in UAE, Offers cheap calls to India

A large part of Free Pc to Phone calls readers are from UAE. And because not many voip providers work from UAE, peopl from UAE pay a lot of money for making international calls.

Voip is blocked in UAE, so people aint able to make cheap voip calls. Some people do use VPN like Hotspotshield but there were complaints that it is not legal to use it in UAE.

So, while searching for a voip solution to work from UAE and let people make cheap calls to India, Pakistan and other countries we came across Ringomax.com

What Ringomax offers -:

The Killer application to bypass ISP blockage -: Ringomax offers you a Pc application that is the Dialer or softphone. Ringomax Dialer will not work on any VPN connection or on Hotspot Shield. Its designed to work without VPN connection & Hotspot Shield. Only use Ringomax Dialer on a Normal internet Connection.

Money back garunteed to work in UAE: Ringomax promises that their Voip software work in UAE, and they offer money back garuntee for voice quality.

Download the dialer and register a user name and password. Recharge your account through credit card or by a Reseller.


Now talking about the call rates offered by Ringomax. (Now you already know that these are Pc to Phone rates as the service is Pc to Phone calling).

Ringomax is charging 1.7 cents per minute to India. Considering that if it works from UAE, it will save you lot of bucks.

The only problem is that Ringomax is in beta stage, the website is not preperly updated, no Contact phone number etc. Another thing being the legal issues. Its better to confirm it first with these guys that their service is legal, if it aint then better use it at your own risk. It will be better to buy less credit first (buy minimum), test Ringomax service and if it works for you then you can buy more credit.

Tuitalk not working for making free calls to India ?

In the month of February '09 we posted about making absolutely free calls to India using Tuitalk. This was the first free calling offer to India (i mean the unlimited one) and we were the first to blog about it.

A lot of people from all over the world made free calls to India, and the blogpost was a big hit. However within a month, the Tuitalk service started giving problems such as "incorrect username/password", some people were not able to login into their Tuitalk account, and many other similar problems.

Tuitalk still worked for many but the call duration (tuitalk offers free talktime minutes every day varied for some). Recently some of my friends in US told me that they are again able to make free calls to India using Tuitalk. Well, I visited the tuitalk website and saw some change in their country list (policy you can say), which answers many of our questions.

To remind people about Tuitalk, it is an advertisement based Voip provider. You need to download their Voip PC application (softphone), watch some ads after which you can call your destination for free.

People from all over the world except (India and Turkey) can use Tuitalk for making free calls. This means you can make free calls from UK, USA to India but you cannot make free calls from India to India. (I guess Tuitalk tracks your IP address to know that you are using Tuitalk software from India).

Apart from India, you can use Tuitalk for maing free calls to other 40 countries.

Please fill your extened profile to get more limit of free talktime. With extented profile I guess you should get about 10 free minutes daily.

Well this is totally free calling offer to India, and should work for you guys. So, please let us know if you are able to make free calls to India or not. If not, please post the problem you are facing so that we can help you correct it. Enjoy the power of Voip.

Free calls from UK (BT landlines) to India and worldwide

A large part of Free Pc to Phone calls blog readers are from UK (actually a large part of indians are settled in UK). Telecom companies earn a good money when these NRI's connect to their loved ones in India. But we have found some solution using which people from UK can connect to India for free (they can make free calls to India).

Firstl lets see how can you make free calls to India and other countries. (No need to register, no credit cards required. )

1. Simply dial the access number 0870 494 52522.
2. When connected, at the dial tone, dial the international number you want to call
3 E.g. for a call to Delhi India, you dial: 0870 494 5252 wait for dial tone and then dial 0091 11 2731 XXXX … it’s that easy!

Now where the catch...?
hmmn..this service is quite similar to what many Australian companies offer. (They also give a local mobil access number dialing which you can connect to India for free).
Now you only pay for connecting to this local UK number (0870 494 5252 ). BT announced that from 16th January calls to numbers starting 0870 will be included in Calling Plans and therefore free to dial from BT landlines at certain times. So, if you are using BT landlines then you can make free calls to India (first just check with BT if you can call this local UK number for free, you may end up paying high if it aint free, so better to check the call rate first).

Others, too may check with their respective telecom provider if this number of eligible for free cap minutes. If its include then voilla, you can make free calls to India, Pakistan or just any other country.

However, if dialing this number aint free for you, just check the call rate to this number and make cheap calls.

For international users, I was wondering if we can found some way to connect to this number for free (using VOIP), then we too can make free calls to anywhere in world. I am too finding a solution.

Not only India, Pakistan, USA, Canada, Nepal, African countries, using this way you can call mist arts of the world for free. I guess this works only on weekdays and not on weekends ( I am not too sure of it, so better to check this too.)

PS: I found this local number and this method posted in some forum, so thought of sharing on this blog. It may no work but still worth trying. So, are you able to make free calls to India using this way..? Have to confirmed the rates to this local number with BT. Please share your views in the comment section...!
