Travelling international. Here is how to keep your bill low
Are you traveling make and you want to make an international call from your mobile ? It may soon cost high
The solution
Some voice over Internet (VoIP) services now works via mobile phone and uses Wi-Fi, local GSM minutes or a combination of both.
1) Ideally, you should use a mobile with Wi-Fi, so you can use VoIP like Vopium, truphone whenever you are near a wireless connection - bars, cafes etc.
2) Install a mobile app, such as Vopium, truphone . This service either routes your call through the Internet from a Wi-Fi access points until it reaches a mobile, or using local minutes on your home network for your mobile signal on the network.
3) If you use Skype, you might want to install Skype Mobile on a compatible mobile. It will let you call Skype contacts at local rates or overseas numbers for your local rate plus Skype's standard rate.
Note: Try not to make VoIP calls over a 3G data connection when you are roaming. It will ruin you.
