International Long Distance Company Starfone.net Announces New and Improved Stardial Service for One Touch International Calling

Sunday, December 11th, 2011


Long Beach, CA (PRWEB) May 13, 2011

Starfone.net, a long distance company that provides international rates for some of the cheapest international calls from the U.S., has announced its new and improved Stardial international speed-dialing service. The new service will make it possible for Starfone customers to call their international contacts by simply dialing a local number with a 2-digit speed dial code (NO PIN required). The new system is intended to make the international dialing process more convenient for callers. The service can be accessed through any US or Canadian-registered number, and is free. Users also get 100 free Stardials and can manage their speed-dial options online at any time from their accounts.

The Starfone online pinless long distance system has been very successful, in part because of the low international calling rates, zero hidden charges and the convenience and overall cost-effectiveness of the system. With the new and improved Stardial speed-dialing service from Starfone.net, Starfone customers stand to enjoy a new stress-free way of dialing international contacts.

How does Stardial work? With Stardial, callers simply go online to their Starfone accounts where they can configure and manage speed dial codes for their favorite international phone numbers. Callers can assign up to 100 free Stardials and they can call these numbers from any registered phone number in the US or Canada.

Configuring a Stardial is as easy as assigning a 2-digit code e.g. 04 to an international number. This is done online within a users account. Once assigned, a user can call that international number by simply dialing a local number (1-234-567-89) and suffixing the 2-digit code. For example the user can dial 1-234-567-8904 (last 2 digits being the speed dial code) directly without a PIN to call that international number.

Users can also save their Stardials to their home or mobile phones for one-touch dialing. For example, a user could save 1-234-567-8904 to their regular home, office or mobile phone as a speed-dial, and simply press the required key whenever they wish to make a call.

Using the Stardial service, users can dial a local number in order to call an international number. They can then call international cheap with low Starfone international calling rates instead of the heavy international call charges experienced when calling an international number directly from their regular phone.

In addition to being significantly cheaper, the system is also hassle-free. There is no PIN to dial, and no long international number to remember – simply dial a preconfigured number (which you can save on your phone as a speed dial) from your regular phone for one-touch access to your friends, family and associates abroad.

One of the key benefits of using a speed-dialing system is that it saves time; take a call center business that has to reach a specified number of international customers in different countries a certain number of times each day to market a product or service, for example.

If the callers had to manually dial each international number and then dial a PIN to connect the call, just imagine how slow and inefficient the business will be, and workers would end up tired and frustrated after short periods of time.

But with a speed-dialing service, they could easily assign a short code to each of these high priority numbers and simply dial the code as many times as necessary to make the required number of calls – everything would be stress-free for the workers and more productive for the business.

Another key benefit of a speed-dialing service is increased productivity, since more work can be completed in less time, and with fewer resources. Businesses possibly stand to profit the most from this truly effective service offering from Starfone.net.

For the ordinary caller, the chief benefit is the convenience of the system. A frequent international caller who has to dial a long international number and a PIN with every call will easily end up frustrated with the service in the long run, but a speed-dialing solution eliminates the hassle and introduces convenience and a higher degree of flexibility to the process.

It is clear that the new and improved Stardial service from Starfone presents a simplified calling solution that takes away the stress from frequent international dialing and introduces comfort and flexibility, while making the international calling process more suitable for business operations. The new Stardial one-touch international speed-dialing service promises to be a big success with Starfone customers worldwide, who will no doubt enjoy the convenient and time-saving features of the system.

Call your international favorites in over 300 countries worldwide with a one-touch Stardial, and experience the convenience and flexibility of this innovative long distance calling solution from Starfone.net. Also get the best international phone rates when you call Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Sudan, Iran, Morrocco, Jordan, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia and Iraq with Starfone.net.

Buzport.com A New One-Stop Shop for International Calling Services

Tuesday, December 6th, 2011


London, UK (PRWEB) June 02, 2011

In the rapidly evolving world of VoIP telecommunications, Buzport, a highly ambitious international calling service has stepped into the ring to provide a wide array of end to end mobile user services for the global population. With the growing need to communicate on a dizzying variety of mobile devices, landlines and instant messengers Buzport has developed the technology to allow to people to talk to each other regardless of how and where the call originates.

“We’re acting as your global VoIP mobile operator,” noted founder and CEO Igor Avdonin. “You can place a call from anywhere in the world to any other destination and the end cost will only depend on the price of local gateways between the Internet and your local telephone network, not on the distance of the call. Our goal is to get people used to the fact that calling overseas is as easy and probably as cheap as making a local call on the go.”

“With a single account Buzport customers can meet all of their international calling needs from a PC, mobile phone or landline, both at home and on the move.”

Once signed up customers have three options for initiating a call. They may choose to start a call with SMS texting on a mobile phone. Users may also use SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to make calls from PC’s or SIP-enabled hardware phones to mobile phones, landlines or any internet-based phones.

In addition to connecting mobile phones, landlines and softphones, Buzport can also be used to connect to and from internet messengers like Skype, MSN, GTalk, ICQ and Yahoo! Phone numbers and IDs used in messengers are treated in the same manner as regular phone numbers. As a result users can make calls between any combination of different terminal devices.

When SIP or internet messenging is used, the originating segment of the call is free and the customer will only pay for connecting to the destination phone. And if both sides are PC/internet based (SIP or messenger) the call is completely free. With Buzport customers only pay for airtime, no other fees are incurred.

Buzport has stated that it will be coming out with new features shortly including a pin-less calling card to facilitate calls from landlines, providing another way to initiate a call with a familiar calling card functionality for those customers who have grown accustomed to making cheap international calls in this way.

republic wireless Reinvents Wireless With Hybrid Calling

Saturday, August 13th, 2011


Research Triangle Park, NC (PRWEB) November 08, 2011

republic wireless , the countrys newest wireless provider, today began a revolution in wireless by launching nationwide Hybrid Calling unlimited talk, text, and Web with no contract for $ 19 a month.

republic wireless Hybrid Calling enables its smartphones to use Wi-Fi in the home, office or anywhere else as the primary network for calls. When outside of Wi-Fi coverage, the smartphone seamlessly uses the cellular network. The companys $ 19 per-month rate and low smartphone cost unlocks the value of widely available Wi-Fi networks, reducing costs typically charged by other US-based wireless carriers.

Wi-Fi is ubiquitous and cheap, said Brian Dally, GM of republic. Cellular spectrum, by contrast, is expensive and controlled by the few. So we inverted the status quo, routing everything over Wi-Fi whenever possible and relegating cellular to its proper place when we are outside of the home, office, or hotspots. The result is unparalleled consumer freedom and unbeatable value.

Traditional mobile network operators prevent their smartphones from dialing natively over Wi-Fi, restrict data usage, hike monthly rates, and charge additional fees. republic wireless is taking an exciting new approach. The company does not charge overages or roaming fees. In fact, republic wireless has eliminated contracts and termination fees altogether.

We hold this to be self-evident: that the best, fastest, and highest-value network is the Wi-Fi you already have in your home and office, said David Morken, co-founder and CEO of republic wireless parent company, Bandwidth.com. We believe that most smartphones should be communicating over Wi-Fi natively, and only using cellular spectrum if needed, not all the time, said Morken. The cellular emperor has no clothes smart consumers have been clamoring for someone to unlock the value of our home and office networks for years. republic wireless uniquely delivers what theyve been asking for. Our beta, launched today, ushers in a new era in wireless and is the beginning of our mission to bring customers unprecedented value.

The republic wireless community will leverage available Wi-Fi networks to minimize its cellular footprint. Each member will establish at least one Wi-Fi connection to maintain the communitys fair use policy. To help members keep tabs on how theyre doing, republic wireless provides them with regular feedback and usage data available online. The data includes comparative and trended metrics such as Wi-Fi percentage and cell network utilization for the individual and the community overall.

Membership at republic wireless includes an LG Optimus Android smartphone running Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) without a contract. The service comes complete with Hybrid Calling and unlimited talk, text and Web. When members are outside the range of Wi-Fi, republic wireless smartphones utilize cellular networks with nationwide coverage.

Membership at republic wireless, which costs $ 199 for an initial start up fee plus $ 19 per month thereafter, includes:
