Source: asteriskblog.com
Raketu, the known P2P VOIP provider has announced their promo that will allow users to make free international calls to over 40 countries.
Raketu is not your ordinary VOIP provider. On its website, it’s stated that Raketu is where social networking meets communication meets media services in one application. It does not only offer VOIP services - Raketu also has video on demand, IM, SMS, multi-media player, podcasting, slide show, info feeds and other features. And to add to that, they’re offering these features both on their desktop client and as web services through their Rakweb site - a way to use RakeTu services without downloading anything. RakWeb also has a mobile-friendly version that can be found in www.raketu.mobi.
The promotion, which started last August 20, will run for 3 months after a user has made a payment of either $9.95 or $24.95. The three-month counter will start after the user has made the payments. This will allow the user to make up to 1200 minutes per month free calling to locations in 40 countries. Any usage that exceeds this free 1200 minutes will be charged with the regular rate. The promo is not cumulative though, so one user cannot have more than the 1200 alloted free call minutes, even if he makes another payment. This will only extend his original 3-month timer
This promo will only be available to RakOut users: for RakWeb users, regular VOIP rates will apply. Also, all current paying customers will be automatically signed up for this promo from the day the offer started last monday, August 20.
The 40 countries included in the promo are: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea South, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States, US Virgin Islands, Vatican City State, Venezuela
