Great to see a whole bunch of new features on Rebtel
One really caught my eye though.
Rebtel Call Collect
“Did you know that your contacts can call you collect? If they’re in a Rebtel country but don’t have a Rebtel account, they can call your Rebtel number and the call will be debited from your Rebtel account. This is a great way for people back home to get in touch with you if they’re for some reason unable to add credit.
If someone calls you collect, we’ll now ask your permission before connecting the call. We’ll also inform you of the per minute rate that will be debited from your account if you choose to accept the call. In your settings menu you can choose to always accept, always reject or if you to choose make that decision every time someone calls you collect. Now all of this is up to you”

What a fantastic idea for parents and kids or migrants with families at home. Its like giving your family overseas a virtual call card on your account.
Really like this new feature, well done guys
