Truphone-Free Mobile VOIP Service

Truphone,once a great Free Mobile VOIP Service lost the ground when they stopped offering free mobile voip calls to 40 countries. However they are now back in the VOIP market with a flat monthly billing Unlimited Calling Package which included 40 countries around the world including India,Pakistan, bangladesh and many more.

If you don't know what TruPhone is, its basically a Mobile VOIP Service that means you need to have a Mobile which supports Wifi and SIP. Truphone also works over GPRS, but the call quality could be poor due to lack of bandwidth. Most latest Mobile Phones supports SIP and Wifi, mostly all N and E series Nokia phones do support SIP and VOIP Calling.

TruPhone's TruUnlimited Landline package starts at $17, however it does not include all the countries and calls are restricted to Landlines only. Don't worry, They also have a TruUnlimited Mobile package which offers unlimited calls to landlines + Mobiles in all the countries including India and most other asian countries.

You have two options to choose from:

TruUnlimited Landlines ($17)

Unlimited calls to landlines* in 38 countries worldwide. Call any time of the day, any day of the week. No long-term contract. Also includes unlimited calls to mobiles in 9 countries including the USA and China as a bonus!

TruUnlimited Mobiles ($40)

Along with unlimited calls to landlines* this plan includes unlimited calls to mobiles* in 69 countries, including the USA, the UK, Germany and China. Call any time of the day, any day of the week. No long-term contract.

How can i use TruPhone in my country?

Well there are mainly 4 ways to use TruPhone:

1) Truphone over Wifi- If you are in USA, Singapore, UK or most part of europe, you would find ample number of Wifi hotspots to connect to. This should be your preferred choice. Wifi is often Free, if not then cheap.

2) Truphone over 3G- 3G would be almost equivalent in call quality as Wifi. However, 3g data usage can make you poor overnight. 3G data cost in many countries are way high, so unless you have a unlimited 3G data package don't go for this option.

3) Truphone over GPRS: GPRS is poor man's wifi, especially in India where Wifi and 3G is not existent. Truphone works over GPRS, but no guarantee than you would hear the other party clearly and vice versa :-)

4) Truphone Anywhere: You have no option to call, no wifi, no 3G, no GPRS, nada nothing. What will you do? you can use Truphone anywhere. it Works seamlessly in the background, If you dial an international number, the call is redirected at the handset to a Truphone access number in your country, which connects to truphone server which in turn automatically completes your call to the international destination.

What you pay for

* Domestic rate GSM call to Truphone server in your home country.
(Please note that data connections will be needed for iPhone and BlackBerry)

* Low cost Truphone call to your international destination.


Does truphone cap number of minutes or per month call usage?

Yes, like everyone else. Truphone has Fair usage policy. You can make maximum 3,000 minutes call per month and all calls are subject to 60 minute call duration. If you consider, paying $40 for 3000 minutes, it works out to 1.3 cents per minute which is a good rate for calling India, Pakistan or Bangladesh.

If you signup for this package, do let us know your feedback so it helps everyone to make a decision. We are really excited to see mainstream VOIP Companies offering rock bottom prices for asian countries and making VOIP cheaper than traditional phones lines.
