Happy New Year to all Free PC to Phone Calls Readers

We would like to take this opportunity and wish all our blog readers a very Happy New Year !
Last year 2010 was a great year in terms of calling rates. Large number of voip providers have lowered their international calling rates. For example, lets take the case of India. Calls to India were in the range of 5-6 cents in 2008, in 2009 voip providers dropped charges to 2-3 cents and now we have seen many voip providers offering calls to India at as low as 1 cent per min.

Talking about free calling promotions, free trial credit with launch of new calling cards, and voip services, this year was full of events. If I would have to rate the best free calls promotion, then it would certainly be Pennytel Free 10 Million Minutes promotion which offered calls to many destinations including India. This was a big move by Pennytel. This year in 2010, we also saw the launch of some new providers like uvoipit, offering some good trial promotions.

Wishing you all once again a very happy new year 2011.

As we step into 2011, we promise that we will keep you updated with the latest information in the voip market. We will keep on posting exclusive promotional offers, great discounts and best deals!
We will also try to connect with the voip providers and bring exclusive offers for our blog readers. You just have to keep following our posts, and trust us we will help you save a lot of money. You will surely see huge drops in your phone bills.

In turn what we require from you is your constant feedback. Please share with us which country are you looking for cheap/free calls, any other voip provider offering you a good deal. Please share your problems with certain voip providers or any other information which you feel worth sharing.

We have seen voip providers offering excellent support to our blog readers, specially when they see that users have complained (or provided feedback) in the comment section. We expect the same this year as well.
 

Free Calls from Gmail extended in 2011

Google launched its voip service Google Voice, soon it started offering free calls from your gmail account. That is Google allowed its users to make calls to USA & Canada phones directly from their gmail account. Actually this offer was made only for rest of 2010 (from Aug 2010).

In the spirit of holiday giving and to help people keep in touch in the new year, Google is extending free calling for all of 2011. You can directly make calls to USA & Canada mobile phones from your Gmail account, just check the “Call phone” at the top of your Gmail chat list and dial a number or enter a contact’s name.

Please note that Calling in Gmail is currently only available to U.S. based Gmail users.
If you are from USA and still have not configured calling from Gmail, then try out Gmail Call feature.

Viber For PC : How to Downalod and Install Viber on Computer | Viber PC App

Why don't we have any official Viber for PC application yet. Why is there any need for such tutorial on Viber PC application. These questions certainly need to be answered by the Viber team. We talked about their mobile voip application for iPhone, how you can use Viber to make free mobile calls. Since it has only launched its iPhone application, Android Application and Blackberry App (with some limited features), the wait for viber app for computer is getting longer!

Viber is certainly one cool application that everyone should have in their iPhone. Almost all those having a smartphone, use internet on their mobile phones. So, what if everyone start using 3G and thus, Viber on their smartphones. Then you can easily talk to each other for free and make free calls. That's certainly possible now :)

But what about those not having a smartphone, but still want to talk to their friends (on their iPhone) using Viber. I think it should soon launch their PC app. Please share your views on this. Do you really require Viber PC application or are you satisfied using viber only on your mobile!

Also a lot of people while on their computer, want to access everything from pc only. Who doesn't like to do the job of mobile from their laptop itself (off course vice versa is also true). I guess Viber should soon officially launch its PC application. But till the time it launches its official app for PC, lets see a way by which you can use Viber on your PC.

Viber for Android Mobiles

Viber has launched its Android app as well, however its computer application is still not officially out. Viber people keep on saying that it is still under works and will officially be out very soon. I would rather figure out a way to use Viber on my PC then to wait for it! 

Download and Install Viber for PC using Android Emulator

For Non Tata Docomo - new interested subscribers :
1. Ensure that Tata Docomo service is available in your area.
2. Get 3G Tata Docomo sim card from nearest dealer, and enjoy 3g services.

docomo 3g plans in indiaThe time Docomo entered India and started its services with Tata : Tata Docomo it started creating a buzz with such low calling rates and unique offers. This indeed resulted in a mobile calling price wars between telecom providers. And now since Docomo has become first private network to start 3G service in India, we could soon see price wars in 3G plans. NTT Docomo is the initiators of the 3G in Japan, and is a major player in 3G services.

For those who are not much aware about the benefits of using 3G, you can use docomo 3g service to make video calls, video streaming online, play online games, download documents, email and Fax , browse internet at very high speed (broadband speeds). Tata Docomo 3G plans are very cheap and offer a good internet speed of upto 2.4 Mbps.

Please note that if you want to enjoy 3G services, first you need a 3G enabled mobile phones. Now many 3G phones are available in India at cheap rates. So before you apply for Tata Docomo 3G Plan in India, make sure you have 3G mobile handset.

Tata Docomo 3G Plans availability in India

Tata Docomo 3G services are available in nine cities in India.
Docomo 3G plans are available for both pre-paid and post-paid customers in all nine circles, Karnataka, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh-Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, UP (West), Punjab, Haryana and Maharashtra-Goa.

Tata Docomo 3G Plans in India : Tariff Details

With Docomo entering the 3G market, and other private telecom companies are expected to enter very soon, we expect that the price of 3G service will decrease with time. Till now, BSNL was the only one offering 3G service in India. The penetration was very less and the prices were also high.

Docomo 3G services are now started in these nine cities and as a promotion offer it is offering 100MB free 3G ( your 2G data plan applicable after 100MB) for the first seven days. The HSPA+ capable network of Tata Docomo supports 3G speed up-to 21.1 mbps. I think that BSNL has also lowered the rates of its 3G plans.

  1. The basic 3G plan starts with Rs 90, which gives 100MB usage at 21Mbps with one week validity.
  2. Rs 200 - 200MB usage at 21Mbps for 30 days
  3. Rs 500 - 650 MB usage at 21Mbps for 30 days
  4. Rs 2000 - 15 GB usage at 21Mbps (if the limit go beyond 15 GB, speed drops to 256Kbps)
  5. Rs 350 - 500 minutes talktime + 150 MB of 3G Data for 30 days
  6. Rs 500 - 750 minutes talktime + 250 MB of 3G Data for 30 days
  7. Rs 750 - 1250 minutes talktime + 500 MB of 3G Data for 30 days
  8. Rs 1000 - 2000 minutes talktime + 1 GB of 3G Data for 30 days
  9. Rs 2000 - 5000 minutes talktime + 2 GB of 3G Data for 30 days
Unlimited 3G plans (postpaid/prepaid):

  1. Rs 1000 - 5 GB at 3.6 Mbps speed for 30 days
  2. Rs 1250 - 10 GB at 3.6 Mbps speed for 30 days
  3. Rs 1275 - 5 GB at 7.2 Mbps speed for 30 days
  4. Rs 1500 - 10 GB at 7.2 Mbps speed for 30 days
These plans are already live (effective 10th November). The best part : Video call will cost you just 0.66 paisa per second. My 2G phone call (voice call) cost me 1 paisa per second. With Docomo 3G plans (in India), you can enjoy video calls at less price than voice calls.

So, with Tata Docomo 3G Plans you can make video calls at a cheaper rate than your voice call. I am amazed that why were these companies charging so high for voice calls.

The launch of Docomo 3G plans in India is indeed a great 3G start in India. I just hope other telecom providers as well come up with such plans, encourage people to try 3G services.

Regarding Voip over 3G network : With already high speed internet offered by Tata Docomo 3G service, you can enjoy very high quality voice/video calls. With Voip over 3G network you can soon enjoy free video calls. We will soon cover a post on making Voice/Video calls using Voip (3G network). Tata Docomo 3G plans rock! Sadly Docomo 3G services are not available in Delhi !!

Free international calls : Calls to India (FreePhone2Phone)

A lot many people have been asking me "How can we make free calls to India ?", " How can we make free international calls ?", "How can we make free phone to phone calls ?", "How can we make free pc to phone calls ?"

Now we have answers to all these questions. A new voip provider has been launched which is offering free unlimited international calls to about 50 countries. Yes you heard me correct, freephone2phone is offering free voip calls which includes free calls to India. FreePhone2Phone offers free phone to phone calls from USA to 50 countries, but with our workaround you can make free calls from anywhere in the world to these 50 countries. Yes, free calls to India from anywhere in the world. The best part is that you don't even have to register in order to use this service. Directly use freephone2phone !

First let me tell a few things about FreePhone2Phone :
1. It is offering free calls in lieu of advertisement - you will heard a short 10 sec ad whenever you make calls.
2. The call recipient receives a normal call from you (no ad on their side).
3. Call duration : 5 minutes to any phone number anytime.
4. Listen for short beeps at 5 minutes, then enjoy 30 seconds extra to wind up your conversation.
5. Freephone2phonehas a strict privacy policy, does not listen to your calls and will not divulge your personal information to third parties.

Now coming to how to make free international calls, free calls to India :

If you are living in USA, and want to make calls from USA.

1. Dial a local access number, FreePhone2Phone offers local numbers in many cities. Visit FreePhone2Phone to find your local access number.
2. You will hear a short ad 10 secs.
3. Dial the destination number :
US, Canada -- dial 1 + area code + number
Other international destinations -- dial 011 + country code + number.

Now making calls to India/International from outside USA.

Basically you need to first make free voip call to USA number (access number) using any voip service and then the international number.

1. Use webcalldirect, icall, mediaringtalk etc to dial any local access number :
# BAKERSFIELD, CA
1 (661) 843-6141
# BALTIMORE, MD
1 (443) 692-6450
# BATON ROUGE, LA
1 (225) 330-6254

You may try other numbers if the above ones does not work for you. Actually these ones worked for me.
2. You will hear a short ad 10 secs.
3. Dial the destination number :
US, Canada -- dial 1 + area code + number
