My 25-year-old pamangkin in Los Angeles, Gino, has found a way to
(1) communicate regularly with his brother Cram in the Philippines through unlimited calls and
(2) earn an additional revenue stream for their Internet shop in the Philippines.
Let me tell you how.
a.) Gino subscribes to a service via www.packet8.net . The service gives him some hardware which allows the user to make unlimited US and Canada calls via the Internet. Basically, the device is plugged into an ethernet (LAN) port, then a regular phone handset is plugged into the device. The device needs to be registered in the US for first time use. Subscription fee: $20 per month.
b.) Gino then sends the device to the Philippines where Cram plugs in the device to their local area network. Now Cram has a Voice-over-Internet telephone in the Philippines that has a US telephone number.
c.) Cram can make unlimited phone calls to any US and Canada number. Cram can also receive unlimited phone calls from any US/Canada number. That’s how Gino and Cram keep in touch over land and overseas …. (Vol – tes – payb!)
d.) Lastly, Cram provides calling services to patrons of their Internet shop. They charge Php5 per minute for calls to US and Canada. This is half the price of the common 20 US cents (around Php10) for IDD calls by telcos.
This saved Gino a lot of dollars! They used to spend as much as $300 per month on call cards with a limited number of hours on the phone. Now they get unlimited call hours, any time of the day for $20. Kewl, huh?
If you or some relatives are in the US or Canada, you can do the same. Visit www.packet8.net . I heard Vonage has a similar service too. Try them out.

It is illegal to charge money for international phone service. This is why VOIP is not commercially available in the Philippines. If NTC finds out you are doing this, they can close you down!
Hi Kmagg50,
hmmm…. I’ve heard this before. But I couldn’t reconcile how NTC plans to implement this. Do you have any reference links we can read?
I know of a company that charges for VOIP — Netopia http://www.netopia.ph/netphone/ — and they have an IDD service which appears to be commercially available in most of their branches around the Philippines.

hi there im angel from canada. my boyfriend is studying in the philippines and he’s living now in a dormnitory. there’s no internet and landline there. i can only reach him through his cellphone. is this service applicable to us?
Nope, this service is not applicable to you.
Your boyfriend needs to have an Internet connection to use this service.

Hello,
My boss sent me a Vonage equipment here in the phils and I couldnt seem to make it work. I am using SMARTBRO as my ISP and I was told that VOIP will not work with it bcoz its wireless broadband. Called Vonage but they said its fine but I have tried it and I am not able to find out what’s wrong. When my Smartbro was connected, they did not have a modem installed w/c from what I know is a requirement for the Vonage equipment to be attached on. I was told to buy a router so I can attach the equipment but others are telling me that I dont need to buy one. Im getting pretty desperate..PLEASE HELP!!!
Hi andy,
Ask a technical person to check-out your home/office setup. Show the technical person the Vonage equipment.
If the vonage device uses an ethernet cable (LAN cable) – you probably need to have a router / switch.

We carry all of the UNLIMITED packages that you need for long distance calling to the Philippines.
We issue a CELL PHONE or bag phone to your recipient or loved one in the Philippines. We assign a US, Canadian, or any international number that we can get. You dial the assigned number, the cellphone in the Philippines will ring.
Plans start at $60 per month. Your recipient is MOBILE or not tied to the internet.
With adaptors, there is also an added internet cost. We also have adaptors if your recipient is not covered by the signals in the Philippines. We can issue it in the Philippines and provide support for it. You don’t have to ship it to the Philippines because we already have it there.
We have 24×7 support (except Philippine holidays) in the Philippines.
Maraming Salamat.

In reference the previous questions;
SmartBro and Vonage access, Yes it works fine, however you will have to have a broadband router, you can not just unplug from the PC and plug into the Vonage device, SmartBro registers the MAC address of the device plugged into it and if you change devices you have to go back through the smart portal to log in and re register the above mentioned MAC address (different on each item plugged into it, i.e lan card, broadband router, vonage device) the rouoter circumvents the issue.
Angels issue; Yes it can be done but if there is no internet access available then you might have to consider upgrading his cp to one of the nokias that support SIP protocols and internet calls ( N80 up, and E65 up), from there the cp would connect via 3g through smart/globe and register the phone with the vonage/packet8/voip.com switch in the states. But enjoy that scenario while it lasts, i am sure the greedy bas%$^&*(rds at smart and globe will eventually block the ports needed to use the service in an effort to pad there already padded puckets.
God I love this country but it could be so much better without the corruption and greed…lol
Thanks for sharing, Lanrover! Please drop by every so often, I think many more readers can benefit from your advise.

Hi Jen,
Why?
ka edong
hi. i just signed up for packet8 yesterday and watched the demo video as to how setup works on the site.
i have alot of questions that i hope can get answered. i am sending this phone to my boyfriend in the philippines because we usually spend more than 300/mos. on phone cards with very poor quality/line disruptions thus leading to wasted dinero.
here are my questions.
1. my boyfriend is staying at a dorm which already supplies an internet service that is included in the monthly rent. as far as i know, with packet8, all you need is a modem for the internet,the packet8 box and the LAN cable.you plug the LAN cable into the modem and packet8 box and disconnect the PC line and attach it to the box as well and voila–it works? anyway… what if the modem is not supplied? i’m not familiar on how internet works in the philippines.. so if the dorm includes internet service,does that mean that each room should have their own modem? and if not..what can i do to substitute for that? will a router be required?
2. it says that, when you finally plug-in the packet8 device, you would have to go on a certain site to activate it and for this you must acquire internet access and pass code from local service provider. i’m assuming that, it should be provided by the internet provider there? or should it be done here? because regarding from your blog, it says that you registered the device herE? not unless..you were reffering to “acquiring the local telephone number” here. so whose access pass code should be taken? mine here in the US or there’s in the philippines?
hope someone can get back to me regarding this and it will truly be appreciated!
Hi Chelle,
1.)
You’ll need to ask your boyfriend how he accesses the Internet at his dorm. If they have a LAN cable, he can connect the packet8 device to the LAN cable. If they use WiFi (more likely), he will need to use some additional hardware to pick-up the WiFi signal and connect it to the packet8 device via LAN. I don’t know the details, but your boyfriend’s neighborhood techie might be able to figure it out.
Here’s a caveat, though. Voice quality is affected by the type of Internet connection. If your boyfriend is using a public internet connection, there’s a good chance that the voice quality will be low. Over here at my brother’s office, they attempted two different VOIP services and each service was affecting the other on his private Internet connection. This is more likely to happen with a public internet connection.
2.)
I believe activation needs to be done in the US. And I think it’s better that way so that you have access to the packet8 customer support to answer your questions before you send over the hardware to the PHilippines.
Hope this helps.
ka edong
so, how do i activate it? do i connect it over my own internet connection here in the U.S., and enter that activation code that is demonstrated on packet 8′s site and will require my local service’s access code/pass code?
because in the first place, i was just planning to send him the phone and not even deal with it myself here because i’m not familiar with all this technical stuff.
bear with me, i’m a noob at this =)
Hi Chelle,
You’re in a better position to get help from packet8 from the US than I here in the Philippines .
I’m sure their customer support can answer your inquiries.

oh ok, so it is ok if i inquire with packet 8? because i thought that this kind of action was not suitable with them (sending the item to the philippines when it is under contract for U.S use) so i hesitated about asking them.
thanks anyway! =)
[...] Unlimited calls with a US telephone in the Philippines [...]
please, don’t even try to get packet8, horrible customer service, would charge you for something that you haven’t even used. i’m also a filipino and having my service canceled is way too complicated. i have to file a complaint with better business bureau for them to cancel the service or they would charge you for $60. call quality sucks! your better off with vonage or if your contact in the philippines doesn’t have internet connection then calleasy.com is the best one. second is rebtel.
please stay away from that company. look it up for yourself the reviews packet8 has and you’ll be amazed how their reputation is.
aspen would be nice too. haven’t tried it though. but i’m taking a look at americacalls service for the unlimited service. they just act as a mobile landline. btw, the $60 cancellation that i mentioned earlier is that if you try to cancel your service before 1 year. it’s on the terms and conditions.
just subscribe to unlimited us and canada calling with vonage, assign a local number to the device and send it in the philippines so you won’t be charged for us local long distance when calling your brother who would be in the philippines.
Aspen is expensive and there cell phone signal sucks! I have the most expensive plan and I am not satisfied. That why I am on this page looking for an alternative solution that would be easy to use by my mom who is technologically challenge.
as i said, i haven’t tried aspen. if it sucks then there would be no sense for me trying it. thanks for the info by the way. currently i’m looking at ianmoreno.com which have a $50 two-way unlimited mobile(sun cellular) calling and $35 for one-way (abroad to philippines). there’s a couple services that they offer but these are the only ones that i’m interested. another would be http://dabarkada.org/telepinas/ in which they have CDN $45.95 for the two-way mobile unlimited calling (sun cellular still). does anybody know a cheaper way to text unlimited in the philppines? for now, i’m currently subscribed to cricket due to the fact that they are the only one offering unlimited international texting for $5 on top of your existing plan.
I am Pinay working in Canada.I recently tried the Suncell unlimited call to Philippines with $49/month charge and it sucks…wahhhhhhhhh I waited on the other line for 30 mins. but nothing happens just those crazy buzzing sounds.I’t doesn’t work. I hate it!
Guys is there any Idea how to call philippines unlimited just me having internet connection.ty
i don’t know why it didn’t work for you but i was having a good time with it. calls are clear. everything’s perfect. that if you’re talking about telepinas.
i’ll take it back, ianmoreno.com simply doesn’t work or perhaps doesn’t exist. they have somebody that is constantly on ym offering new product and services. i gave them my contact number and email address but i haven’t receive any calls nor messages from them since then. it has been 2weeks already.
Hi! For Kristina Cassandra, you can try telepinas. (like what 1769 said)….it works for me! im here in toronto canada and my family is back in philippines. they are not charging 49, but only 45. ianmoreno is the one charging 49.. (right?) telepinas service is great and the line is clear! hope this helps.

To 17679 and paula712 thanks for giving me an idea for calling unlimited in Pinas.I will try it as soon as posible because my phone bill is killing me.Im getting married on January that’s why I’m calling a lot to my fiancee and my family for the wedding.I hope it will work for me this time.By the way I was talking about SunCellular unlimited call but it doesn’t work good.The worst thing was I had to call the operator first before making a call then she told me to wait on the other line or “Maam u can try it tomorrow or Maam ur recipient has to call u back tell them to put load on thier cell.Sometimes the call goes through but it only lasted 10-15 minutes and most of the time I have to wait 10-20 mins. for nothing.

Among all VOIP service providers I tried, I can recommend Telepinas to all OFWs in US and Canada. I’ve been using this service for almost two years already to talk to my husband in Canada and I really get my money’s worth. The quality of calls is excellent! Of course, the are minor glitzes that happen once in a while like when the sun signal in the philippines is weak or when the PLDT DSL connection becomes unstable. These are inevitable hurdles in a VOIP service provider. However, Telepinas is the most efficient in providing technical support. They have excellent customer service. They make sure your concern gets fixed right away. They are also the most convenient for me because I do not need to install internet connection in my home. Check this out – http://www.telepinas.com
I have also been using Telepinas to call my mother in Bacolod City from Toronto. It’s very reliable! It has so far met my very strict standards in terms of call quality. You can never go wrong with it. http://www.telepinas.com
I’m using telipinas now and everything is good especially the voice quality parang nasa Toronto lang ang kausap ko at madali pang i dial wala ng pin or whatsoever.I can recommend it to anyone na lagi natawag sa PINas.

My husband, just recently married
, introduced me to ALLTimeTawag.com; we’ve been using it for about 1 year – we’re on the phone everyday for atleast 3 hours. The sound quality is terrific, he could even hear birds humming from the outside when I am inside my room with the music playing. The customer service is great, they know tagalog and ilocano. I don’t even pay anything here in the Philippines, ALLTimeTawag takes care of it all. Thank you ALLTimeTawag for helping me and my husband keep in touch and making long distance sound so near! Hope they can be as helpful to others out there.
i’m not sure what some of these other companies are like ,but I have had much experience with voipinoy.com and sun cellular. Wow oh wow! What a unreliable service it is .If you like to sit on hold indefinitly, waiting to connect( most of the time for hours trying and trying) If you like to not have simple questions answered and then to be hung up on or told silly lies. If you like to talk to young women sitting in front of a computer with no idea what they are doing and irritate you to the point that you just want to scream? If so , then this service is great.
If you actualyy want to be able to communicate with the person who you want to call then I would never reccomend these guys to any one. Their customer service is terrible at best. They give you good service for the free trial and then the party begins after you give them your money.Worst company by far that I have EVER dealt with!
Oh my God, Please don’t ever ever try the international unlimited . com (www.intl.unlimited.com) I tried it , the service sucks, you have to wait hours and hourse before you can go through then the stranger from other provinces who speak different dialect would answer me..Finally sent an email to international unlimited asking to cancel my account.. Guess what? I cannot contact them, they never respond to my emails the telephone nos, that they used only the machine answered it, and it’s now 2 months that I’m not using this shit but still getting bills from them every freaking cycle.Oh gosh for $49.95 a month it say unlimited but it isnt anyway, they give you a max of 256 minutes talking to the strangers inluded if ever your call would go through.
So if you want to pay every month for the service that you don’t use gosh go ahead click this link http://www.intl.unlimited.com and be miserable with your bills.. Can’t trust these people. I already canceled my credit card and hopefully I will get my money back after all the trouble of calling the card company, they are not helping either.. Gosh why there’s so many assholes in this world..
for Smart Bro users who are interested with using VOIP try nyo ‘to might work
http://voipinthephilippins.blogspot.com/
i use telepinas.net at the moment now. they have pretty good customer service and good pricing. They are connected with sun cellular,so thats not really a good thing. It is a very good service untill sun starts blocking calls. You never know when that will happen ,or for how long they will do it. I reccomend telepinas.net above all of the others that i’ve dealt with unlss you have the cash for the startup from some of these other companies. In the end they are just as unreliable,just alot more expensive
Sad story. This must be a lesson to everyone. Consumers should not be hype on the company marketing strategy without after sales support.
Tips on what consumers should do before committing to their products / services:
1. Know about the company
2. Investigate company legalities including office location, employees, credentials, accreditations, business permit or registration
3. Must know how they can technically support their customers
4. Their business operations
5. Check their product / services if reliable
6. Finally choose your VOIP provider
“OpenTone Communications Philippines Inc.”
http://www.otcbeyond.com
otcbeyond.com? way too expensive. you’re way off better with telepinas. quarter of opentone’s price.
Clients / subscriber of OpenTone Communications Inc.(otcbeyond.com) are highly satisfied with our products and services.
7 days of trial for Philippine residents. Try us!
Telepinas, ian madrid, ian moreno are not connected with SUN Cellular. Please beware, I have a friend working in Sun Cellular, he said that all are illegals. I was one of the victims of Ian Moreno, the service sucks….
Beware of scams. Learn from mistakes. Choose only reliable VOIP company.

I’ve used this, ALLTimeTawag.webs.com, for few months now and I really like it, so does my brother in New York, my aunt in California, because we could all contact our family house in the Philippines with unlimited hours everyday for very low price. Even my cousin in Japan said she’s definitely will get one too for her fiance, after I’ve told her about it.
ianmoreno.com is a reliable voip provider ive been using their service for about 2 years
ianmoreno.com is a good service provider Ive been using their service and their CSR is very Accomodative for ronnelpapa ianmoreno.com is not a scammer
To Rebellion:
My question is am i pointing here that you are a scammer? I choose to say beware of “SCAMS” bcoz, there are lots of unreliable company, unreliable service, unreliable customer support, or unreliable technical support that is what i mean. Again, i am not pointing that you’re scammer. The biggest challenge today here is how reliable service does company have?
And thats the lesson before clients make a commitment to the services.
That’s why i advice customers/clients to have background check for the company stability, company legality, company’s products services and to the people behind the company before making commitments to services they are offering.
God Bless…
sorry folks but i have to agree with ronnelpapa. ianmoreno.com might not be a scam but their CSR is definitely horrible and perhaps their service might suck too, i’m not sure though, but to all the filipino people looking for a cheaper way to communicate to their love ones in our country, a good thorough research, reviews and a bit of being a PIA with their customer service reps, asking a bunch of questions might help you land in a good service provider. for me, i’ll probably stick to my rebtel or calleasy, they may not be the cheapest but they are definitely reliable.
p.s. telepinas might be a good provider to try too, i had a week of free unlimited trial call with them.
ALLTimeTawag.webs.com, for a low monthly fee, ables me and my family to call my sister in Hawaii and my other sister in Israel. My neighbors come over and make calls too to their love ones abroad, ofcourse I charge them per minute, hahaha!
ian moreno is indeed a scammer. I have dealt with them and their horrible sister company. rebellion and wisnet work for them i”m sure and they are trying to damage control because they are losing money with all of the negative publicity. I ‘ve dealt extensively with both of them and they ARE connected and partnered with sun cellular. If anyone wants to try either of these companies and has a good experience, go ahead lol . waste your hard earned money. can”t say i did not warn you
travis elling im not working with them “FOR YOUR INFORMATION” and im paying for their service and i ask your record from them and they didn’t see your record or contact number number meaning to say they didn’t know you, their service is reliable infact i am their pioneer client 3 years ago and now i have my good wife, thanks to you ianmoreno
GOD BLESS!!!!!
I won”t even pay any attention to someone that does not know who I am, tell me what service that I have availed of lol. obviously I have struck a sore spot with rebellious because he is trying to do damage control on his company, or his friends company,Whichever one it is. If you are indeed having a good experience with that company ,then you are the first one that I have heard of so far. I don’t like companies like that ,voipinoy and ian moreno (one in the same) taking peoples money and not providing the service that they have been paid for.I am just alerting everyone that i can, that these two companies are BAD .Hopefully all the negative publicity will save people the hassle of losing thier money ,and or force these companies to provide the service they promise or force them out of business. Whichever. Telepinas is a very good company, but at the moment they are having issues with sun cellular. thier customer service is very good though and they care about whatever concern that you have ,and if they do have a problem they make sure you know what is going on.
Again however, if anyone wants to test voipinoy or ian moreno. Go right ahead and good luck lol…
travis elling ian moreno and ian madrid is not the same bcoz you have no record from ian moreno, ian moreno ia reliable provider I Repeat and im paying for their service 3 years ago and now im still using their service
Lol .sounds like someone is defensive. Don’t like the negative publicity? I told you guys that I will not be one of the customers who you will take advantage of and just go away.You guys caused me alot of aggravation and now( as i promised), am returning the favor. The more it irritates you and the more your business suffers , i will continue lol. I have a good service now since leaving yours. no aggravation, cheaper, and i don’t get lied to on a continual basis.
Thanks 17679 for your support. Always and Always check the Company before making commitments to the services they are offering. Coz nowadays some company are after only to MONEY! After that bye. bye..
That’s why OpenTone Communications is one of my best reliable VOIP Service Provider and one of the leading VoIP company in the Philippines. Tax Free. No hidden charges. Money Back Guarantee. Free 1 week trial offer for subscribers.
Not sure of what point you’ll trying to make to one another up there. I agree with ronnelpapa about checking out the options well. But what I share is what I’ve been using, ALLTIMETAWAG, which is awesome, I save a lot and I can talk a lot to my dad, sisters, in-laws, relatives and even other guests who visit our house in the Philippines. Highly recommended.
i was happy with Telepinas..but they’re having problems with SunCellular right now..
i wonder if its gonna be fixed or not..

Every1, u gotta check out ALLTimeTawag.webs.com or ATT for short. Been using them for almost a month, and best thing I’ve done – you know the feeling when you cant wait you tax return but better; hope that makes sense. Anyways, this year’s valentines went really great since I got to talk to my fiance and my kid for few hours that day. And the best part is that I could talk to them for few hours EVERYDAY for NO additional charge. On top of that, ATT taught me how to do it on my tmobile cellphone for unlimited airtime minutes. Thank you and GOD Bless ATT!
does anyone know about pinoy tawag here?
http://www.pinoytawagunlimited.com/PTUCoveragePlus.html

anybody in Phils that has broadband connection to be able to connect to internet can also try Ooma voip service. Compared to vonage and packet8, this company only charges 1 time about USD200 for the price of the equipment. After that, that’s it. meaning you can call to any US number (don’t know if Canada is included) for free as long as your broadband connection is up and running.
for details go to ooma.com, just sharing this since I’ve been using it. if my relatives in PH only had broadband connection, I would’ve sent one already.

Based on what I can read from the forum, TELEPINAS seems to be the favorite. I tried calling them to see their offerings and they gave me a free trial for me to try. My free trial was activated within 24 hours. The line was clear and the connection was good. I will subscribe to their 1-way plan as soon as my paycheck arrives next week. I recommend TELEPINAS. I hope my short review helps anyone finding a calling plan to the Philippines.

hi,
I want to ask if you have vonage product here in manila, philippines,because im interesting in your product,If you have contact number and the exact place here in philippines please e-mail of this account: tinaching_28@yahoo.com.ph
i tried packet8 too before. Had it and visited Manila back in 2008, hooked it up to internet at my folks house, and was able to make/receive call with clarity.
vonage is the same as packet8 service. get the modem, hook it to internet and start makin calls after you activate it. and just like packet8, you have to pay monthly fees.
the best i would say is ooma. you buy the modem for $250, hook it to internet, activate it, and start making calls. the only difference is, no monthly fees as long as yo don’t get the premiere subscription. I maybe wrong so check ooma.com for details.
from packet8 i swicthed to ooma which i’ve been using for more than a year. so, I already broke even the money I spent on it after 10 months and after on, just simply getting free landline service.
gamit ko po telepinas pag tawag sa pilipinas. malinaw ang mga tawag pag kausap ko yung nanay ko sa manila. sinubukan ko muna ang free trial nila tapos nag subscribe ako sa 1 month direct plan. ok naman so far. susubukan ko mag subscribe sa mobile plan nila next month para matawagan din ako ng nanay ko sa pilipinas.
