Cheap phone call providers...
Globe7
• Use This Service To Call: Internationally.
Globe7 is a VoIP application that lets you make free internet calls from your computer to other computers (with Globe7 also installed) and access cheap international call rates when phoning landlines and mobile (cell) phones. You have to register, download the software and purchase credit. You have to use Moneybookers in order to buy credit or send money to Globe7 through a wire transfer (which does seem a bit long-winded in these days of online purchasing).
Globe7 do boast the world’s lowest call rates, but I’m afraid this is a little bit of an exaggeration, as comparing a call from the UK to Australia (Adelaide) they are beaten marginally on price by 18185.co.uk (although you can only use 18185 if you live in the UK).
You can accumulate free minutes to use when phoning from Globe7 by signing up to offers from their advertisers.
It’s a little difficult to find the calling rates on the Globe7’s website, in fact, they’re under the system specifications for downloading their software.
The Globe7 software comes with extra widgets for live TV, live radio, games and breaking news and sms, etc. It is Windows, Mac and Linux compatible.
Globe7 Mobile
The Globe7 Mobile application works with WiFi, 3G, GPRS and WiMax and with the Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0/6.0/6.1 operating system. You can make free calls to other Globe7 mobile users and access the Globe7 cheap calling rates when ringing landline and mobile phones.
