Pingo Launches Anywhere in the World Calling

Source: www.voip-news.com

Prepaid VoIP calling service Pingo now allows callers to make low-cost international calls using personal computers from anywhere in the world with Internet access. Customers can call any fixed or mobile phone number, avoiding access charges and roaming fees.

“Pingo offers the best of all calling worlds: low rates, no hidden fees or extended contracts, and you buy only what you need,” said Jayesh Patel, vice president of business development and strategy for iBasis. “Now, with Pingo SoftPhone, customers have an opportunity to use the service anywhere and enjoy our lowest rates. For those living or traveling abroad, that also means avoiding access and roaming charges, saving mobile minutes, and not paying those exorbitant premiums that hotels charge for international phone calls.”

According to Pingo:

Unlike traditional calling plans, prepaid calling cards, international calling cards and other VoIP services, Pingo (www.pingo.com) allows consumers to purchase minutes on an as-needed basis. The service has no hidden fees, surcharges or further contractual obligation. Pingo Business (www.pingobusiness.com) provides small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) with service for up to 999 employees, allowing administrators to easily set individual spending limits, monitor use and manage balances through a single, centralized account.
