8×8 VOIP Service gives Free USA Calls
Do you have a Facebook account? Most likely you do. Well take advantage of your account and make free USA phone calls. 8×8, a VOIP service in the United States, has launched a service to allow to make calls for as long as you want for free. The calls get routed through the Facebook application and therefore your phone number will never show up in anyone’s caller ID. This keeps your phone number private from others.
You are also able to add a phone number that you would like to receive calls on from the 8×8 application. Its a great opportunity to make some free calls. Installing the application is very simple, follow the steps below:
- Login to Facebook
- Find the 8×8 Connect Application via Search
- Install it to Facebook and follow the setup instructions
- Now a “CALL ME” button will appear next to your friends names
All you have to do to make a call is click the ‘call me’ button and the call will be made and you may talk for free. That is just the easiest it will get! Also if you want to call any other USA number that is not on your friends list then you can do that as well by going to the application and entering the number in. 8×8 has started a revolutionary service and this will be a great tool to add to your VOIP services. Try and make free USA calls from Facebook.
JumperTel Unblocks VOIP Calls from UAE

Blocked VOIP Countries can make VOIP Calls
VOIP has been blocked in many countries such as UAE. There are many ways to get around that but it is difficult to setup for the non tech-savvy person. The best route for VOIP calls from UAE or other countries is through VPN connection. This is a pain to setup and hard to maintain. Therefore, a service has been introduced that will allow users to setup a VPN in seconds.
JumperTel allows for a VOIP call through VPN. Now JumperTel is a USB phone that hooks up to your PC’s USB port. It routes the calls through your computer and internet. It allows for JumperTel to JumperTel calls to any person in the world. This is not special for any other country that does not have VOIP blocked because it is just like PC to PC calls and Skype can be used for that. But Skype is blocked in many countries such as UAE. So purchasing a JumperTel phone will allow you to use the service.
This phone costs a one time fee of $21.99, and the service is $1/month or $12/year. The calls are unlimited and you need to have a friend or family member who uses the same service so you can make the calls to them. They do not allow calls to normal landlines or cell phones, its only Jumper to Jumper.
How does JumperTel unblock VOIP Calls
It is very easy to do this. When you get your USB phone, you plug it in to your computer and it will guide you through the best route. It will auto detect that you cannot make normal VOIP calls and it will set up a VPN network for you. This all takes a matter of 5 minutes and a few clicks on your side.
Once again, it needs to be stated that this is ONLY for those who do not want to worry about technology. If you know something about VOIP and SIP then you know that there are better and free alternatives such as Skype or any other kind of SIP service. Other than that this is a good service and pricing is not so bad. If you live in a VOIP blocked country, then JumperTel can help you in some ways.

AllVOI Unlimited Calls to India Review

Cheap Unlimited Call Provider, AllVOI Review
AllVOI is a cheapest voip calls provider to India. There new promotions include unlimited plans to India for very cheap monthly. AllVOI is a United States based service and it can only be used in the states. If you want a provider that will give you local and long distance calls in the US, plus cheap calls to India then AllVOI is for you. But they are not the best because there plans are not “unlimited”. If you want a try a true unlimited provider then Lingo is the best choice for calls to India and Bangladesh.
As for AllVOI, they have many plans to choose from for India. They have plans for about everyone from many minutes to low minutes. There service gives good voice quality and also have good customer service. There prices maybe a little bit high compared to Lingo but overall they are a provider that can be used. Lets see there unlimited India plans:
ALL India 750 – $14.99/month with 750 minutes to India
ALL India 1300 – $19.99/month with 1300 Minutes to India
ALL India 3000 – $29.99/moth with 3000 minutes to India
The last plan with 3000 minutes is a true 1 cent/minute to India. The rest are good deals but Lingo gives true UNLIMITED calls for only $23.95 and you can talk as much as you want! AllVOI also has a adapter fee. They charge you for there special adapter. This is another $20 deposit when signing up. It is a one time fee. But why pay this when Lingo gives this to you for free? AllVOI is a new provider that is till trying to get there roots while Lingo is competing for that #1 spot with Vonage.
Overall, AllVOI is a good provider but if you want a reliable service than most go with Lingo. Nonetheless, both services will give free VOIP phone calls to India. Test out the service for the cheapest VOIP Calls and sew how the AllVOI Unlimited India plans are.
