vTalkers - Cheapest rate to call Pakistan from S'pore!

The current rates are as follows:

1. Starhub's 018 @ $1.00/min. Per second (instead of per minute block) billing
2. Phoenix Comm @ $0.40/min
3. Skype @ $0.20/min. From computer only

And now i've truly found the cheapest rate to call the faraway Hub!

vTalker's rate starts from a mere $0.09/min to Pakistan and $0.12/min to India!! There are other plans too that you can see at their website

Pros:

1. CHEAPEST
2. PORTABLE - any phone line or even from computer. Just need to sign in or key in ur a/c no
3. Prompt reply to queries.
4. Flexible

Cons:

1. Sometimes down...
2. Might get crossed lines or call drops

but who cares as long as it's cheap right? Only when they're down, then i resort to Starhub or Skype IF it's urgent. Otherwise, i just wait till they're back UP again or i conveniently email them to notify of the problem.

The first time around when i applied, I cldnt see my a/c nor password, so i emailed to them. Apparently its bcos i didnt return to their website after payment was approved.


Just two days ago, i tried to recharge my account but it says something like "Merchant cant receive funds right now" or something and i emailed to them yet again... and you know what? They creditted to me $10 to use first and pay later while they sort out the problem! =) Very nice and flexible. Not rigid like the big companies.


So, overall: 4 out of 5 stars! Way to go, vTalkers!
