After the last offer where they offered 1 second billing now Airtel is back with another plan named no rental plan to make cheap calls to India. Airtel is infamous for advertising their 1 cent plan which actually costs you 1.67 cents per minute.
With this new offer to make cheap calls to India, they are offering something that can potentially compete with other VOIP service providers. With this new offer you get 938 minutes for $15. That makes call rate to India a decent 1.6 cents per minute. Validity of this offer is 2 months. If those minutes are not sufficient for you or that time is too less to spend that many minutes you can consider buying 1563 minutes for $25 again at 1.6 cents per minute.
Most of the users are using Airtel because of many reasons, one being that Airtel is a familiar name and therefore it is the fist cheap international call provider that comes to your mind when you have to recharge. Second is that their call quality is at par with any other provider. Third main reason, disappointingly is their malpractice of advertising lower rates than actual rates. 600 minutes for $6 sounds good but then you end up paying $10, which they claim is because of $3.99 admin fee. The other issue with Airtel is that you have to call their local access number which will cost you your cell phone minutes.
To conclude this offer is good if you are somehow tied to Airtel and want to continue with it. Otherwise, we recommend Yupeephone and Dial91 as cheaper and better alternatives to Airtel. We wish you a great free calling this new year. Stay tuned with us while we will keep posting about great latest offers.
