SMS Call Back

This is another clever way of reducing your mobile call bills and is particularly useful if you have chosen one of Voipfone’s SMS message packages.

With this Call Back service you send an SMS message to the Voipfone Call Centre which contains the number you want to call. Voipfone then connects you to that number at a much lower cost than a normal Pay As You Go mobile call.

You can call any telephone, fixed or mobile, anywhere in the world and you will only be charged at our standard low prices.


The advantage of SMS Call Back over ordinary Call Back is that you can pre-programme the whole call (SMS number and calling number) into your mobile phone. You then only have to call the pre-programmed name to make the call. Perfect for when you call a few people a lot or for when you’re in the car and can’t struggle to make a call.

How Much Does It Cost?

Because Voipfone is calling you back, the call is much cheaper than a standard mobile call. Apart from saving you a lot of money (up to £1.90 per minute for International calls while abroad, and 18p per minute for calls to other UK mobiles, depending on your plan.) you no longer need to top-up your mobile phone; you just keep credit in your Voipfone account.

The way this works is that Voipfone makes a call to you, then one to the person you’re calling; then connects both together. So you will be charged for two calls. But because our prices are so much lower than your mobile provider even with two calls we are much cheaper. You will also have a one-off charge for the SMS call at 8p. If you use our inclusive SMS service this charge can be reduced to 4.5p.

So to find out how much a call from your mobile to a land line in the UK would cost, look up calls to UK mobile (this is Voipfone calling you back); 11p/min (or less), then calls to UK (this is the number you want to call in the UK; 1.1p/min. That’s just 12.1p/min. (Don’t forget to add whatever you pay for an SMS message add what you pay for an SMS message onto the final total).

Have a look how cheap international calls are using Call Back – you’ll be surprised. (eg USA 12.4p/min; France 12.5, India 19.3p/min)

People are communicators. They talk to express happiness, they talk to educate, they talk to say how much they love and they talk to create laughter.

The human condition in all its diversity moves and progresses on the ability to communicate freely and easily.

But good communication across the world is still the preserve of the few. In most countries monopoly operators charge extortionate rates for sub standard quality lines and even the rapid spread of Voice over IP providers such as Skype are legislated against, suffer from quality problems due to bandwidth and are only available to those with computers and broadband.

By providing a low cost high quality telephone service that can be used in any country in the world from any phone we have strived over the past 14 years to facilitate the ability to communicate to anybody that can get to a phone.
