Rebtel Review
Rebtel Overview
Rebtel is a mobile VoIP call back service. With Rebtel you give them the phone number of a friend in another country, and we give you a local number for them. You then save this number on your mobile so you can call your friend whenever you want, for a fraction of your normal international rate. Now, if your friend also has Rebtel, you can call each other for absolutely free. First, call your friend on their Rebtel number. Then, ask your friend to call you back. Tell them to use the number shown on their phone screen. From there, stay on the line. In a few seconds your friend will join you back on the call.

Their price is as low as most cheapest phonecards!! But beauty of Rebtel is that, their local number service is unique and wonderful! It’s so easy to use. Once you sign up on their website, you won’t need any additional device or computer to use their service. Double dial is amazing feature, you can call anywhere from your cell phone without your computer!! Best ip phone service I’ve ever used. Highly recommend!!!

Cannot get Rebtel customer service to address any of the problems I have sent via e-mail. Answers e-mailed to me do not answer the question. Phone calls to service get a useless phone menu loop. None of the choices will get a person to answer. (Have listed 4 phone numbers instead of the 5 allowed) but am unable to change preferred phone number as I travel. When it works Rebtel is great, but VERY FRUSTRATING to deal with problems or even questions. Website is not helpful, either.
