28TEL, with its advanced technologies, provides mobile international calling services. Compared with standard mobile international call rates, 28TEL is at least 70% cheaper. The rate for dialing from China to US is a mere RMB 0.095/minute. The mobile “roaming free” service is also recommendable. Through the mobile phone’s call forwarding setup, during roaming, the subscriber can be exempt from international roaming fees and receive all calls directly with local mobile phones. It is quite cost-effective for people on international business or pleasure trips. For now, this “roaming free” service has been offered to subscribers in mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, U.S.A., Japan, Korea and Brazil. More European and American subscribers will also enjoy the exemption from international roaming fees in the near future.
In addition to super-low costs, 28TEL also boasts a friendly MUI (multiple-user interface). The phone numbers of overseas contacts can be quickly mapped through three different methods: text short message, IVR(Interactive Voice Response)system and website. The system will assign corresponding local numbers for users to make direct calls. The mapped local number can be saved into the mobile phone contact list to facilitate the one-touch service. It means that you can make an international call through 28TEL no matter where you are. Furthermore, you can conduct contact management any time. As a result, 28TEL thrives commercially and received good market responses immediately after the service was launched.
Today, it is common to make internet phone calls via a computer or ip-phone with the extremely low call fees. However, the internet telephony has obvious disadvantages: the mobility of the user is limited, and the necessity of internet access makes it impossible to dial anytime from anywhere in any desired way. Therefore, since the birth of VoIP technology, industry experts consider the application of this technology to mobile phones as an extreme goal. Compared with traditional VoIP services, 28TEL service can be easily enrolled and operated. Unlike traditional Internet call services, 28TEL requires no installation of any hardware; unlike other cell phone VoIP services, 28TEL needs no downloading or installation of any handset client software; 28TEL can work on any mobile phone, and no high-end handset is necessary. As long as you can dial through a local number, the connection to an overseas phone can be immediately enabled.
28TEL offers very cheap direct global dialing, roaming free and free calls, which is a blessing for expatriates, for people with frequent calls to relatives and friends living abroad and for those planning overseas holiday trips. It will also benefit business travelers with broad international operations.It is expected that cost-effective services and gigantic target markets will turn 28TEL into a major industry player.
