Mobile VOIP in China

voip
You heard that news about Skype being blocked by China? It still faces the issue and recently we received an email from Skype that china is still on their "Not Suitable for Business" list.

However In this difficult time, it seems the newer voice 2.0 startups are making their way into the dragon nation. Starting from today, China will get its first taste of mobile VoIP and . Thanks to Rebtel.

More than 18 million people live in Shanghai. And that doesn’t include the city’s 6 million migrant workers, making Shanghai one of the most populous cities in the world. Rebtel’s low-cost calls from Shanghai to the United States, for example, will cost just $0.018 per minute; $0.019 per minute from the U.S. to Shanghai. By comparison, AT&T charges $3.50 per minute to call a mobile phone in China from a mobile phone in the U.S.

Rebtel scores over other service for its unique model of providing services. It works without downloading any special VOIP application. It works on any mobile phone, it doesnt require you to use high end mobile phones. Its a callback system + VOIP technology combined to provide you a free service.

Of course, the native SIP client based VOIP applications and handphones are more powerful but for all those old handset users Rebtel can be a good choice.

Rebtel also offers a free trial of 10 mins call. Besides that, they are running a festive offer. If you buy a $10 credit, you would get $30 in your account.

So if you haven't yet tried Rebtel,it might be a good chance to blab around :-)
