DialAbroad launches free international calling service

DialAbroad MobilePlus (http://www.dialabroad.co.uk/mobileplus) is a new service enabling pay-monthly mobile phone users to make international calls using their cross-network inclusive minutes to over 300 destinations around the world.

To use the service, the customer simply dials 07744 788 888, waits for our recorded announcement to begin and then dials their full international number. There are no accounts to open and no separate bills.

“DialAbroad now offers a complete, high-quality, hassle-free suite of international calling services in the UK. Whether you are calling from a landline, a pay-monthly mobile or a pay as you go mobile, DialAbroad can supply you with a highly competitive service to suit your requirements,” says Co-Founder Alistair Gates.

“It’s a very exciting period in the development of our business - everybody thought our 1p/min mobile service was ground-breaking. Now you can make calls for free,” adds fellow Co-Founder, Chris Smith.


How it works

1. Dial 07744 788 888 from your pay-monthly mobile phone
2. Wait for the recorded announcement to begin
3. Dial your full international number (do not press green/send again)

The cost of the call will come out of your monthly inclusive “free” minutes package. If you run out of inclusive minutes, the call will be charged at standard cross-network rates. At time of publication, O2 and Orange are including calls as part of inclusive minutes. Some networks do not include this number within inclusive minutes. Full information and updates on this service can be found at http://www.dialabroad.co.uk/mobileplus.


How is it free?

The service utilises pay-monthly inclusive minutes (the customer has paid a monthly fee to their network and receives some “free” minutes in return). When our access numbers are called, we receive revenue from the networks which covers the cost of the international element of the call and a margin for us.

Notes to editors

- For the call to be free, the customer must have a pay monthly package with cross-network inclusive minutes with a network supporting inclusive calls to our access number. If in doubt, check with network in advance.
