Shiv writes about the Rebtel like service that Jajah launched recently. Jajah has made a great effort in bringing cheap calling to the masses. Loads of people have signed up via Jajah and been able to call their loved once much cheaper than with the normal operator. The fact that Jajah now follows the Rebtel lead by offering local numbers, shows that the Rebtel way of calling is the right way to go. Rebtel offers local numbers in 40 countries for your contacts abroad, compared to Jajah’s 6 countries. The quality Rebtel provides is great and the prices are highly competitive. In fact they are some of the lowest on the market. Check out an independent service comparison made by Luca Filigheddu.
Jajah claims that their service is “made for people who want to call anyone, anywhere in the world at anytime for free…” but I cannot understand what they’re driving at. In only a handful of countries you can make calls to mobile phones and landlines without paying anything. However, you are still tied to your computer since calls are not free from Jajah Mobile Web (mobile.jajah.com and play.jajah.com) and the Jajah Mobile Suite.
Rebtel’s view of free is different. You can make free international calls, i.e. you don’t pay anything to Rebtel, to mobile phones AND landlines in 39 countries WITHOUT having to get the other party to sign up AND you can do it from your mobile phone. Rebtel actually wants you to do it from your mobile phone!
The mobile phone is one to the things that has made a huge impact on peoples behavior and made the life easier for millions of women and men. Now it is time to take that liberation even further and start enjoying conversations with your friends and family abroad in other places than in front of the computer. Discuss Christmas gifts from the store for the cost of a local call or plan the holidays while commuting instead of spending precious time at home.
Join the new era and call someone abroad now! Send an SMS with your friends name and number, e.g. “'Benjamin +44879843098'” to +44 77 9780 0900, and your good to go!
