VoipBlast.com, Cheapest calls and free calls with new dellmont service

VoipBlast is offering “cheap or free VOIP calls” to various countries. VoipBlast is another new service by dellmont. The call rate offered is 0.7 cent to INDIA landline phone and one cent to mobile phone. This rate is probably the cheapest right now. But there is a cache, unlike other Betamax or Dellmont services this service has a connection fee for each pc2phone call, which is 3.9 cents/call. However the same charge is applied for the phone2phone calls, which makes is less than other services where you were paying 5 cents as connection fee.

Lets review VoipBlast service in aspects of economy, quality of service and features

(+) Cheap Calling rates
(+) Minimum Recharge Amount is only 1Euro through any reseller
(+) 35 Free Calling destinations worldwide including Malaysia, EU, USA etc
(+) Features Like SIP, VOIP-in, SMS and Both PC to Phone, Phone to Phone
(+) Reduced connection fee of 3.9 cents for Phone 2 phone calls
(-) Connection Fee applicable 3.9 cents per PC 2 Phone call
(-) Poor Customer Support , No Live Support

We have reviewed every aspect of their services and compared with other Betamax service. In our opinion Voip Blast is good to use Phone to Phone calling facility because for phone2phone service other providers are charging arround 5 cents/call as connection fee. Apart from this connection fee rates are lowest as of today. Another best part is that you can try this service in by recharging for only 1EURO through any VOIP reseller. I request readers to share their experience with us on FreeVcalls Comments.

Check Details about VoipBlast http://www.voipblast.com/

We recommend this service to the phone 2 phone users, however paying 3.9 cents as connection fee of PC to Phone calls to India landline makes it cheapest in the world if you are talking for more than 13 minutes.


You can also use voip blast with your SIP device or phone,

SMS GupShup to Provide Facebook on SMS in India

SMS GupShup, India's largest social messaging platform recently announced their connectivity with Facebook, which is world`s largest Social Community. I know that Orkut and Facebook both have mobile portals but that will also limit access to GPRS users. Giving Social Community access on SMS and that too with a SMS community like SMS GupShup will definitely give more accessibility and reach to Facebook users.SMS GupShup's messaging platform will enable Indian users to take Facebook with them, wherever they go, using SMS.

Let`s see what are the things we can do with SMS GupShup Facebook Facility –

** Update your status updates
** Send Message to friends
** Receive status updates, messages and wall posts instantly in their SMS inbox.

As we have previously discussed in about SMS GupShup, there servers a good enough to handle high amount of SMS traffic. So you will not feel any delay in delivery of SMS.

Here are the comments from CEO of SMS GupShup and Director of Mobile, Facebook.

Beerud Sheth, CEO, SMS GupShup said “SMS GupShup has built the largest SMS-based mobile community in India, on the foundation of a high-performance messaging platform that supports nearly 6% of India’s SMS traffic”. He added, “We are excited to enable mobilizing the Facebook service in India and look forward to delivering a great mobile experience to their users.”

“We are very excited to work with SMS GupShup, given their experience with both mobile messaging and social media in India”, said Henri Moissinac, Director of Mobile, Facebook. He added, “We realize how important it is to work with great companies in the mobile space in countries like India, and by enabling Facebook on SMS, users can now use it even when they’re not near a computer.”

As of today, according to Facebook Mobile, the social networking site has a tie-up with Tata Indicom, which uses the number 9232232665 (92FACEBOOK). To use Facebook on SMS GupShup right now we don’t have proper instructions neither from Facebook nor from SMS GupShup. I think these will be available soon.

TATA DOCOMO is TATA Teleservices new GSM services

TATA Teleservices Ltd has now launched its GSM services with brand name of DOCOMO. By launching GSM service TATA has join the list of dual technology service provider after Reliance. We have waited a long to get a chance to review their services and present to you.

As always Big Brands always come with a Big Offer. TATA has come with almost similar offer which they have offered during launch of there CDMA service. “Now second is your new minute”. Yes this is the offer. TATA DOCOMO has launched their services in almost all parts of South India Tamilnadu, Orrisa, Karnataka, Kerala, and Andhra Pradesh.

I have just thought to have a comparative study of two latest GSM launches – One is Reliance GSM Service and other one is TATA DOCOMO.

The main difference is Reliance GSM has only launch basic phone services i.e. Caliing and SMS whereas TATA DOCOMO has came with fully fledged mobile service including Calling, SMS, Mobile internet, GPRS, Voice portals, and Caller Tunes. Now let’s review services offered by TATA DOCOMO –

Network Quality
I have not got a proper network signal in all parts of city if you consider Bangalore in particular. But as it is a new network player, obviously it will take some time to give proper coverage. With the brand name of TATA, I think it will be reliable and robust.

Mobile Internet/ GPRS
There is no information whether the network is 3G ready or not. As far as common GPRS/EDGE is concerned, yes it is available in fair priced manner.

For Prepaid :: Browsing on TATA portal is Free, 1p/1KB on TATA Home Network.
Rental pack on Post Paid: Rs.99/ month (100 MB free internet usage in TATA DOCOMO Home & National Roaming Network).

Voice and SMS Based Services
These services includes news, jokes, horoscope and music services. Nothing to discuss more about it. The only point worth noting is the charges for Voice based services, in some cases these charges are based on second pulse and very low compare to other carriers.

National and International Roaming Coverage
TATA DOCOMO has physical existence only in southern part of India as of now, but they are promising seamless network coverage partnered with other operators. There is no roaming monthly rental and calls will be charged on minute pulse basis. Incoming will be charged at Rs1/min and outgoing is Rs1/min and Rs1.5/min for Local and STD respectively.

Offers
TATA DOCOMO has launched its services with a great offer in which all calls will be charged at 1 paisa/sec to any mobile or landline with lots of Free local and National SMS.
