Callkeyone Card - "0044"

I used to use a product called Mint for years then found other cheaper roaming services like United Mobile. However none really gave me a service I could use to receive calls on, simply because giving out the number was too expensive. I then came across a product called Callblue Gsm (www.callblue.com ); they offer a UK Mobile number which was great as now I could give this out to everyone I needed to call me.

What I found about callblue is:

1. they offer a UK number which was great for me and was really cheap for people to call me. I noticed that if you have cross-network minutes available on your existing UK mobile phone, then you could call callblue and the call was free.
2. they have several plans to suit my needs, including plans to offer free incoming calls across Europe while I roam.
3. they have low roaming prices in many destination, I recently traveled to South Africa and used the service to place calls from there, it really saved me a bundle
4. they have good customer services, as I too was confused as to when the call gets billed, but I received a reply back within half hour of sending my email; they have an online support center which helped answer all my general questions

when using my existing Orange Mobile from the UK while roaming, I noticed my monthly bills were around ?500 per month, now they are a fraction of that. J

i also used to use skype out service to place calls from my computer, but noticed that they did not have great quality to mobile numbers, and then I used callblue and their quality was really good. I then signed onto callblue voip product, they have a pc to phone software that I can use from my computer to place calls when I don?t want to use my mobile. The rates are very reasonable and quality is good as well. A typical call of 10-mins to UK cost me; $0.325, which was around 17p.

I went to callkey?s website, but there is nothing there and did not seem that impressive. The rates are not straight forward and did not feel like I wanted to risk buying something where I have no idea what my costs are.

From France I paid $0.43 per minute which worked out to be around 22p per minute which was something compared to my existing Orange calls of ?1.50 per minute.

I?ve also found it very helpful to use an online voicemail service where I can forward my landline calls to and receive my voicemails as attachments to my voicemail. This way I can always be in touch. It?s like being in the UK, only not.

I think I will stick to this, as having a uk number really helps out.
