Add International Capability To Your Cell Phone

The move from landlines to wireless phones is picking up steam. That offers an opportunity for mobile professionals to always be able to connect with prospects, customers and suppliers. One limitation, though, is that cell phone plans tend to exclude international calls or impose rates that make international long distance service impractical. Is there a solution?

There is a terrific solution in the form of a third party add-on service that integrates seamlessly with whatever cellular service you have now. Technically, it’s called international dial-around. You are not changing providers. Instead, you use the dial-around service to literally “dial around” your current cellular service when you need to make overseas calls from the US and Canada.

TEL3Advantage is a leader in the international dial-around space. Take one look at the per minute rates to the destination of your choice and you’ll see why. Let’s just choose to call China, for instance. The Flex Plan rate is 1.32 cents per minute. You read that correctly. It’s cheaper to call your contacts in China using Tel3Advantage than it is to call another city with most landline long distance services. Actually, this service will work just as well from a landline as a cell phone, so it makes sense to get Tel3Advantage and use it from all your phones.

By the way, you can call China for 30 days at just a penny a minute using the special Promo Plan when you sign up for Tel3Advantage service. Compare quality and service with your current long distance service or the calling cards you get at the convenience store. You’ll be so impressed by the calling rates, connection quality and customer service that you’ll gladly continue after the 30 day introductory period is over.

Give it a fair test. The stated rates are impressive enough. But note that there are no hidden fees involved like you run into with prepaid calling cards. Did you know that you almost never get the stated rate from a calling card? There are connection fees, inactivity fees and so on that reduce the number of actual minutes you get for your dollar. The true rate is often several times what’s printed on the face of the card when you actually start making calls. With Tel3Advantage you’ll pay the stated per-minute rates. You only get charged extra for calls from a payphone, if you can even find one anymore, or if you call from Alaska, Hawaii or US territories beyond the 48 continuous states.

Also note that your cellular provider will probably charge you minutes for the time spent calling through Tel3Advantage unless you are making calls during the free nights or weekends provision of your plan. That’s probably not important for most users, since you are paying for a bundle of minutes per month anyway. It can be a consideration for pre-paid cellular plans. Even so, just where are you going to get cheaper international rates even including the per minute charges of a pre-paid cell plan?

So, how does this service actually work? It’s pretty easy. You dial a local or toll free access number to reach the Tel3Advantage platform. Then you dial the international number you want to reach. There are no long PIN numbers to remember. You register your phone numbers with Tel3 and the system recognizes your phone when you call. You can avoid even dialing the access number yourself by downloading a TEL3App for your iPhone or smartphone. Then it’s no harder to make an international call than to place a call to a business across town.

Add International Calling To Your Cell Phone

The reality of telephone conversations today is that at least one of the phones is a mobile. Yet, many US cell phone plans limit you to domestic USA calls. Those that let you call out of the country can make you sorry you did when the bill arrives. Doesn’t anyone offer a way to call Mexico, Europe, China or even Canada at a decent rate?

Click to check out the low calling rates.There is such a deal and you’ll love it. What you need is a special add-on plan to the service you have now. There is no need and, frankly, no advantage to switching carriers mid-plan. Instead, you keep your current US calling plan and add an international calling service to it. It’s fast, it’s easy and, best of all, it’s cheap.

The service I’m talking about is TEL3Advantage
. What kind of rates are we talking about? Right now, TEL3Advantage is offering discounted international rates that include calls to China for 1 cent per minute, Berlin Germany for 1.4 cents per minute and calls to Canada for 0.9 cents per minute. You saw that right. You can call numbers in Canada for less than a penny a minute. I’ll bet you can’t do that on your landline!

Actually, now you can. The same TEL3Advantage account that works on your cell phone also works on your home phone or your office phone. You can use it on any private touch-tone phone.

OK, now back to those incredibly low rates. They’re for real as part of a special 30 day discount. After that they go up to the regular rates that aren’t much higher. China, for instance, is 1.32 cents per minute instead of an even 1 cent. Calls to Canada cost 1.6 cents per minute. Calls to Berlin Germany are 2 cents per minute for the regular rate. Bet you still can’t beat these rates on your regular landline service. Calls to other locations worldwide are also available at eye-popping low rates.

So how does this work? You sign up for TEL3Advantage with a valid credit card or PayPal account. You order a package of minutes for $10, $25, $50 or $100. What you are doing is pre-paying for your international calls. There’s an extra bonus involved. You get extra free minutes with all but the $10 package. How about 900 free minutes to China on sign-up with the $100 plan. Astounding, but true.

Now you are ready to place your call. Simply dial the local access number for the TEL3Advantage service on any phone you have registered. When the service answers, you dial the international number you want to call. Your call goes through just like on any other phone and you enjoy a nice long conversation. At these rates, it can really be a long conversation. When you run low on minutes, the system will recharge you so won’t be left hanging without service like happens on those prepaid calling cards.

Do you have a smartphone? Your life gets even easier when you download a TEL3 app. It is smart enough to know all the local access numbers, so you can just place your international call with no fuss whatsoever.

Thousands of satisfied customers love this service, and why wouldn’t they? There are no monthly fees or taxes, no contracts, no expiration and no obligation. Just fast and easy access combined with extraordinarily low calling rates. Does this sound like a service that will work for you? If so, learn more, take advantage of the introductory specials, note the 30 day satisfaction guarantee and order your TEL3Advantage service now.

Special Triple Savings To Call International

If you make calls to other countries from the USA or Canada, there's a special offer available that you absolutely must know about. It's the triple savings special from TEL3Advantage.

How does this triple play work? You get 30% off their already rock bottom international calling rates. You'll enjoy those rates for 30 days. Plus you get up to $9 free talk time worth up to 900 international minutes. Some people don't even talk that much in 30 days. But you will. In fact, it's highly likely you'll be calling all over the world on a whim with rates as low as 1 cent per minute to China, 1.4 cents per minute to Canada and 1.4 cents per minute to Berlin, Germany.

A penny a minute to call China? Yeah, it's hard to believe this is even legal. But it is. The rates are cheap, the service is easy to use, and call quality is high.

So, how does TEL3Advantage work? Is it a calling card? Actually, it is a technology upgrade from common prepaid calling cards. You simply sign up online or call a toll free number to place your order. You'll get set up quickly. Whenever you want to make a really low cost international phone call, you simply dial the TEL3Advantage access number to connect with the system. From there you dial your destination number and enjoy your conversation.

It's important to note that you don't have to dial any of those incredibly long PIN numbers like you do with calling cards. This system doesn't need them. There are also no connection fees, no hidden charges and no contracts. That's what you don't have to put up with.

What you DO get are free minutes when you sign up, ability to make calls directly from an address book, high call quality, fast connections, auto-recharge from your credit card so you don't run out of available minutes, online account management, ability to use the service from any phone (including cell phones), and a service that works in both the U.S. and Canada.

By the way, when you dial into TEL3Advantage you will use one of 4,000 local numbers throughout the U.S. and Canada. Otherwise you have the option to call a toll free number for a penny per minute more. But go ahead and download the TEL3 Smartplug software for your phone and you won't have to remember any access numbers. The Smartplug will take care of that for you.

If you've been thinking about purchasing a prepaid calling card to make out of country calls... don't do it. Not until you check out the triple savings special from TEL3Advantage. I'll be you'll find the regular rates and service features superior to that calling card. Plus don't forget the limited time special offer!

International Cell Phone Calls for Pennies

How would you like to be able to call the world from your cell phone for rates as low as 2 cents per minute?

What? Impossible! No, it USED to be impossible. Now there's a new add-on service for cell phone users that enable you to make calls from the USA and Canada to overseas locations and pay international rates as low as 2 cents a minute.

Here are some actual per minute rates for calls placed right now. Calls to China are 2.36 cents per minute. That's right, China. Remember when you shelled out a buck a minute or more for those calls. Oh, you still do? Well, then get the TEL3AdvantageMobile Plan right now before you make another call. Are you paying more than 10.49 cents a minute to call India? 2.64 cents a minute to call Mexico City? 2.4 cents a minute to call Paris? How about 6 cents a minute to call Tokyo? If so, don't you dare spend another penny on phone calls until you sign up for the TEL3AdvantageMobile Plan.

But what about your current wireless service plan? For local and domestic long distance calls just keep using it the way you have been. It's those international rates from the cellular carriers that will kill your budget. This service doesn't interfere with your wireless services. It adds to them. You only use TEL3AdvantageMobile when you want to make international phone calls and save up to 80% of the cost. Now, isn't that EVERY time you make an international call?

But can't you just get one of those cheapo pre-paid calling cards and do the same thing? Cheapo? That's what they want you to think. There's nothing cheap about their rates once you've factored in all the usage and inactivity fees they hit you with. You might see some cheap rate printed on the front of the card to entice you buy it. But then you find you don't get nearly the advertised number of minutes that you think you are paying for. There's all sorts of hidden gotchas in print so small you need a magnifying glass to read.

The TEL3AdvantageMobile plan is genuinely low cost. Plus it's a lot more convenient than using a calling card. This advanced service offers a free software download for your cell phone. With it, you can quickly make calls without having to search for access numbers or enter those incredibly long access codes. What a pain! TEL3AdvantageMobile automates all that so all you have to do is make your calls and save a bundle in the process.

If this sounds like the kind of rates you get with a VoIP service but on your mobile phone, you're partially right. But TEL3AdvantageMobile doesn't suffer from the voice quality problems that plague many VoIP services, especially when your broadband service bogs down. Call quality is excellent and there's no cord or broadband connection needed with TEL3AdvantageMobile.

Did I happen to mention the bonus minutes for signing up? Yes, you can get up to $10 in free minutes added to your account when you sign up for a TEL3AdvantageMobile account. This special offer may not last forever, so take advantage of the free minutes special to learn more and sign up for TEL3AdvantageMobile now.
