astral Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Check out http://www.poketalk.com/. You have to register first, but then you can get a free 10 minute call from your phone to many countries in the world. It was mentioned on the BBC Click TV programme today.

neverdie Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) You're FULL OF IT astral! (Good information that is). THANKYOU! I wonder if registering with them makes you subject to their spamming of your phone & email accounts? Just a thought.

Moonrakers Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Cool, cheers astral. I think that maybe a few more mum's will be getting Western Union requests now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsetBkk Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Ah! Thanks Astral - now I remember why I have "poketalk.com" scribbled on a piece of paper next to my PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkkmick Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Ha...obviously they make money from ads. I clicked the link and got this message: Whoops - there seems to be a problem...PokeTalk is an Ad-Supported service, and we have detected that you may have plugins in your browser which disable the display of advertisements. Please disable these plugsins and try again. It's a bit daft. They won't let me do anything on their site until I switch off my ad blocker.

sbk Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Wow, a site offering free phone calls that makes money from ads and its daft that they want you to see their ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkmick Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 No, daft that they won't let me use their site unless I see their ads. I run an ecommerce website and I do think that it's daft they won't let a potential customer look at their site unless their ads are being displayed. I'm always looking at cheap ways to phone back to Ireland and followed the link. I actually left the site when they would allow me access due to adblock being active. I could disable adblock and view the site or they could just let me use their site with AdBlock active. We had our choice I chose to leave, they lost a potential customer. Anyway Ireland/France in on (6 Nations). I'm off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you DTAC> And don't forget to top up on your birthday with the biggest value card you can find. They'll give you double the money! (500 baht max, I think).

triffid Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) Their website lists the countries from which free calls are available and Thailand is NOT on the list. Edited February 9, 2009 by triffid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davyboy Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Their website lists the countries from which free calls are available and Thailand is NOT on the list. Yes, only 13 countries and as you say not LOS!! HMMM!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syd barrett Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 On the face of it, it looks like free phone calls from a UK landline to a Thai landline or mobile. But what happens AFTER the 10 minute call? Do you have to re-register with a new email address and password? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
