Free Calls to and From Dominican Republic

STOCKHOLM, July 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Dominicans are again able to call any phone, anywhere in the world for just pennies per minute, and make free calls to loved ones in 50 countries – including the U.S. – now that Rebtel service has been restored.

The international calling service provided by Rebtel http://www.rebtel.com, the world's largest independent mobile VoIP company, can be used with any phone, just the way it is, and without any modification to the customer's current phone plan.

There is no charge to set up a Rebtel account. Everyone gets a free five minute call to test the service. Thereafter, subscribers only pay for the minutes they use, and on average realize savings of up to 95 percent compared to traditional long-distance rates.  

Rebtel's low-cost calls from the DR to any phone in the United States, where Dominicans now represent the fifth largest Hispanic group, cost just $0.015 USD per minute

Smart Calls between the Dominican Republic and the 50 other counties served by Rebtel are always free, and only one of the two people on a call must be a Rebtel subscriber.

"With more than 1 million Dominicans living and working in the U.S., Rebtel is the cheapest, easiest way to keep in touch with your loved ones and now you can even make that international call for free," said Andreas Bernstrom, Rebtel CEO.

Rebel with a cause

Founded in 2006, Stockholm-based Rebtel took its name from its rebel stance in the telecom industry. Its vision was to replace fraudulent calling cards, cumbersome computer calling, and operators' expensive international calling plans with the world's first genuinely good, honest, trustworthy, and easy-to-use global international calling service.

The company's mission was equally simple and straightforward: Make reliable, high-quality international calling extremely cheap or free worldwide.

Unlike Skype, which requires international calls to be made over Wi-Fi, a fixed Internet connection, or a $99 per month Verizon plan, Rebtel works with any phone – landline, feature phone, or smart phone – for just the low price of the call.

"Four million Rebtel customers pay only for the minutes they use – or make free calls – and you can too," said Bernstrom. "It's time to join the Rebtel revolution like millions have done worldwide, and just say, no, to fraudulent calling cards, fiddly computer calling, and carriers' expensive international calling plans."

How Rebtel works

Rebtel gives people local phone numbers where they're living that connect them directly with their loved ones or work colleagues abroad.

By making all calls local, people can call each other as often as they like and talk as long as they want, for little or nothing more than the cost of the local calls.

Getting started is fast and easy:

1. Go to http://www.rebtel.com and enter your phone number and your loved one's phone number.
2. Rebtel creates local numbers for each of you to use instead of long international numbers.
3. Save the number and use it any time, anywhere to call your loved one abroad.

"If you can make a local phone call, you can use Rebtel to stay in touch with loved ones abroad," said Bernstrom.
