Callback World & United Mobile - Changes

kupe · 15-06-2007, 17:33

Sadly, it is now cheaper to call the US direct using United Mobile than to go through CBW. Total CBW rate now is $.56/minute, whereas UM rate Europe to US is $.49/minute.

CBW might still have an advantage on a very short call, since UM always tacks on the $.30 setup charge. And of course UM is full-minute billing, which can bite you too.

All in all, sad to see CBW fall by the wayside. ;(

Bummer, I was just about to use this on my trip to china, but at .56$ a minute, it makes no sense.
What about enlinea? Where are they at now?
