Pros & Cons:
Pros
- Detects and intercepts International calls to offer savings
- Low cost International calling rate
- Lookup International call rates before calling
Cons
- Convoluted route in making International calls
Features:
RebTel Android App allows you to make low-cost international calls by connecting local toll numbers with or without dependency on WiFi or data connections. Something different in the race for free long distance calling. Within the app you can see RebTel credits, call history of outgoing and incoming calls, phone numbers used, payment details and notifications. A very convenient feature allows you to look up International call rates before calling. Unlike Google Voice, you have to search Google Voice website and look up countries to see rates.
Gripe Alert: The call experience can be a bit convoluted as the first time you make a call to an International number you are instructed to hang up, repeat the call again then you’re connected.
