New Canadian VoIP Provider

I came across a new Canadian VoIP service provider (in its infancy?) aptly named "BabyTEL" that is announcing unlimited Canada-U.S. calling for $29.95. This news comes after Bell Canada's announced VoIP plans for a very expensively priced $45/month announced this past March. Their Canadian $29.95/month pricing is roughly U.S.$23 so it is competitvely priced versus other competing VoIP service providers which now all seem to be offering VoIP pricing plans under $30. Since I wasn't aware of this company, I figured I'd share their news release since I'm sure many of my blog readers hadn't heard of them either.



babyTEL™ Aims to Eliminate Long Distance, Announces Comprehensive New Internet Phone Service Pricing

babyTEL, the leading independent Canadian-owned provider of high-speed Internet phone service, is pleased to announce the Canada-U.S. Village, a new pricing plan offering unlimited calling anywhere in Canada and the United States for $29.95 per month.

“There is no question that 2005 is shaping up as the watershed year for the mass adoption of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) services,” said Stephen Dorsey, babyTEL President and CEO. “By expanding the babyTEL Village™ to include the U.S., babyTEL and our partners are leading the way to eliminate long distance charges and provide choices for consumers and business.”

In March, Bell Canada unveiled its first VoIP service to some customers in Quebec offering unlimited calling across Canada and the U.S. for $45 per month.

babyTEL’s $29.95 Canada-U.S. Village package includes a vast array of features, including: call waiting, call forwarding, conference calling, voice mail, voice-to-e-mail integration, online account management and more.

Another first in the marketplace is babyTEL’s new multiple devices for a single line. This means customers can have a telephone handset at home, a handset at a recreational property and a so-called “soft phone” for laptop computers with all tied to the same number. This unique premium service is $4.95 a month more.

Canadians can access babyTEL’s VoIP service directly at babyTEL.ca or through many independent Internet Service Providers and cable companies.

“babyTEL has been the backbone of our VoIP service since its launch in 2004 and this is another bold step in the evolution of Internet phone service,” said Jacques Perron, General Manager of CCAP, a Quebec City based ISP and Cable TV cooperative. “You don’t even have to be in the Village to get unlimited calls because your phone travels with you to Paris, London, Hong Kong or wherever.”

“We are thrilled to offer our loyal customers leading-edge voice over IP service at such competitive prices,” said Dave Berzins, President of Calgary-based Nucleus Information Service Inc., the largest independent ISP in Western Canada.
Beyond the Canada-U.S. Village, babyTEL offers customers plans from as little a $10.95 per month.

Dear Sirs,
First of all let me show my respect to your esteemed company.
We are Pilyov’s Marketing Agency from Uzbeistan. We provide representative services, marketing researches, direct mail etc.
Since April 2004 we have been working with 1CellNet Company which was renamed by CellWireless Corporation www.cellwireless.com
We have been promoting their services – international calls by law rates. For that period we gathered big team of service consumers but that company always has some problems and we are looking for better provider for our region.
We got rich experience in that business and we know how to arrange everything. IP telephony is very interesting alternative for calls from Central Asia and customers ready to purchase prepaid phone cards.
Only in such country like Uzbekistan each year people spend about 45-50 millions US$ for long distance calls to EUROPE, USA, RUSSIA and ASIA even by very high rates offered by our big domestic operator Uzbektelekom. For example, call from Uzbekistan to USA - 1 minute costs 1.20 US$; call from Uzbekistan to Europe - 1 minute costs 1.10 US$; call from Uzbekistan to Asia - 1 minute costs 1.20-1.45 US$; call from Uzbekistan to Russia - 1 minute costs 0.40 US$. Upon request we can provide you with more information about competitors and market share.
Our Agency works since March 2001 and we know that the only acceptable way of doing telecommunications business in our region is to have official representative office with branches in big cities where customers can make payments in cash (electronic payments especially via Internet are not so popular here).
If you are interested in our market and can provide better services and rates, we are ready to cooperate with your company.

We would be grateful to you for prompt reply to our offer.

Kindest regards,
Denis Pilyov

Dear Sir,

I would like to ask you that do you provide VoIP a call from PC to any land line or mobile phone in Bangladesh? Or any incoming call like from land line or mobile phone to PC via internet? As you know now most of the large provider has this service. i.e. Yahoo.com/Net 2 Phone/Skype/Vecton etc. But the problem is with these providers you have no facilities for Bangladesh. What we really do need call out from our PC to land or mobile phone via internet and by having a incoming number, call receiving from a land line or mobile phone to PC.
If you let us know regarding this matter will be very much appreciated. If you come with a negative answer please let us know if any one does provide this felicities in Bangladesh.
Thanks & Kind regards.
