Calling UK has never been so cheap

Hello guys! This is Piyush from Bradford. Me, an Indian from Punjab, having shifted to Bradford last February for my postgraduate studies. Well, I have posted several queries in the blog forum, asking if anyone here in UK could tell me about cost effective india phone cards for UK india calling. I have got few response to my queries regarding the UK calling cards. I bought one, but the call rates are high and every time I get connected, unclear voice and poor network hardly lets me talk at ease.

Two weeks back, I came across the news that Airtel has launched UK calling cards here in UK under the banner of Airtel call home. Like me many of you must be looking for cheap india phone cards, so I am sharing my exciting experience here. What prompted me to sign up for is the call rate as well as the introductory launch offer. 25 minutes of free talk time as well as an additional 50 per cent extra talk time over and above what is purchased made me sign up for the Airtel call home. I have subscribed to toll free access for which the call rates are 4.5 pence per minute otherwise it is 3.5 pence a minute for toll access. The Refer-a-Friend programme entitles one to up to 100 minutes of free talk-time, for each successful referral but unfortunately no one has yet accepted my reference.

Well the process of signing up is so easy. It takes only one hour for the first signing up and for the consecutive recharging it hardly takes a minute. I am using my Indian credit card to pay the denomination online. You just need to create an Account Id with password and a PIN (which you need to disable will making a call).

My brother in California is already enjoying its benefits since long and he had this wish that the same be introduced in UK. Earlier I was taking the services of several other india phone cards one after the other but these nearly emptied my pockets.With the toll access, I am now calling India at 3.5 pence per minute only. I have been offered 25 minutes of free talk time and got 50 per cent extra talk time over what the amount I have signed up, thus making it 2.3 pence per minute. Moreover I have referred a friend who accepted and I got 100 minutes of free talk-time. The service quality is just wow!Of all UK calling cards, Airtel call home is the best for UK india calling; this is what I feel personally and so I am sharing with you all guys. The signing up process is very easy. The first time you sign up, it takes nearly and hour and for the consecutive recharging, it hardly takes a minute. You have to open an account and if you are a newcomer, you can use your Indian credit card to pay online, which is secured. After you create your Account ID, Password, and a 4-digit PIN to safeguard your account against any misuse, which you can disable at the time of calling, you will get a confirmation. You can assign a short code to the Indian destination number you want to dial. To start calling, dial the stored toll free no, disable the 4-digit PIN and punch in the short code.

INTERNATIONAL CALLING CARD

A postpaid or a prepaid Calling card usually resembles a credit card. Such cards can either employ prepaid credit system or credit card style system of credit. The exact system for payment, and the way in which the card is used to place a telephone call, depend on the overall telecommunication system. Currently, the most common types of telephone cards involve Prepaid Phone Cards in which the card is purchased with a specific balance, from which the cost of calls made is deducted. Pre-paid phone cards are disposable. When the balance is exhausted you simply buy a new phone card. Cards purchased can often be refilled. The international prepaid SIM card gives cardholders the convenience of global roaming and one phone number. Both types are also available in a non prepaid variety; here, phone calls are billed to clients in much the same way that a regular telephone service provider bills clients placing long-distance telephone calls. In recent times, calling card service providers have gone one step ahead in reducing the costs and increasing convenience by introducing calling accounts. Calling accounts eliminate the need for printing of a physical card; accounts are available only in electronic form. Calling accounts can be purchased over the Internet using credit cards and are instantly delivered to the customer via e-mail. This e-mail contains the PIN and instructions for using the service.

Do you carry calling cards while travelling?

The trend of using prepaid calling cards, or global / world calling cards, while travelling is catching on. While buying the local SIM after reaching the destination may seem to be the ideal option, global calling cards could have an edge as you needn’t have to wait to get your card activated. Telecom companies claim such cards could help users save 80-90% over international roaming But, there are certain points that you need to keep in mind. These cards cannot be recharged. Besides, some operators do not allow domestic calls within certain destination countries. You also need to go through the list of countries you can make calls to. If you happen to lose your card, it will neither be replaced nor will the unused balanced be refunded. It is very important to memories the PIN provided to you as there is no way of retrieving the same. You also need to check for any surcharge that may be levied if calls are made from payphones, hotel/hospital and so on. Thus, you could very well opt for such calling cards for the sheer convenience that they offer, but it would be worth your while to study the features carefully to get the most out of your calling card.
