Rebtel - globally local VOIP for your mobile

September 23rd, 2006 · 2 Comments · VOIP

I stumbled into Rebtel last night while scanning some feeds before bed and think it’s a very cool idea. They assign a local number to you and your calling party in each of your local countries and then you simply call that local number (using your unlimited local calling from your phone plan) and Rebtel flips the call to VOIP and then switches it back over in the respective local international market. While this is not for everyone, if you know someone overseas, this is a great way to still maintain the use of your existing phone system, but save massively on international calls. It’s much easier to explain to a parent or grandparent as well as you do not need a computer to make a call - you simply call a new number for your friend.

Andy notes they’ve just raised some serious cash …
