If you are using hotlink prepaid or maxis value first postpaid, then Nitetone is cheaper.
FnF and Activa5 same rates as Nitetone.

thanks!

What Nitetone needs is a dialer for phones.
Then no need to append 800 number for new numbers.

We have auto dialer for fixed line phones but not the mobile phone because you can't attach dialer to mobile phones. For mobile phone devices, Simply add 1800 gateway with pause in front of the phone number is already a form of auto dialing method and it is simple, competible to all phone models and easy to communicate to users at large.
Perhaps you know something latest in the market ? Mind to share what kind of dialer you are referring to ? Thank you for your input.

Try doing that for all the numbers in your contacts.
What is needed is a program to load into your phone to automatically append the gateway number to the numbers in your contact list.

Maybe something like this?
Calling Card Dialler

Thank you for sharing.

Gee ! you are not going to do that to all your hundreds of phone contacts in one go are you ? It is absolutely unnecessary to key in the 1800 gateway to ALL your contacts. The most frequently called numbers perhaps already registered in your FnF or Activ10 list. Usually Nitetone users will only save 1800 nitetone gateway to remaining balance of frequently called numbers which are not listed under FnF or Activ5 plan due to it's limitation. As for less frequently called numbers, Nitetone user can use "send DTMF from phone contacts" method as described in call options 3 in the 1st post. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1707511 . Another way is you only add in the 1800 gateway to one contact at a time only when you want to call that number.

When you mentioned a program to be installed in the phone, that's the end of it. It is not going to work on mass scale. First of all, you can't have one universal soft dialer that caters to all the phone's OS in the market ie iOS, Android, RIM, Symbian, WM, W7, etc etc. The soft dialer link you provided is limited to Symbian s60 3rd edition only and iPhone and android phone can't use it. Secondly, majority of phone users are still not tech savvy enough to self install the program into their phone even if we do have the app for all phone models.
For your information, there was one calling card company came out with "auto dialer sim sticker" that promised single click calling directly from phone book but received little response from the market because the auto dialer sim sticker requires an initial installation set up.
We need solution that can cater for all phone models, easy for every one and simple to understand by all. Therefore the current 3 calling methods adopted by Nitetone are the closest we can get to simplicity and ease of use for public at large.

True! True!

The auto-dialler software for symbian was just an example.
Didn't have time to google further for other os.
But you've got a point about installing it.
Personally, it wouldn't be a problem for me but I get it about other users.

italk also hv their own dialer for symbian
http://202.71.108.103/personal/card-servic...r_uguides60.asp

if nitetone serious abt biz then shoudl consider create at least 3 platform to cater for three different OS

symbian
iOS
android
bb

I'm no programmer, but a dialler seems to be a simple program and should not be too difficult to implement.

Aeiou,why is the call rates alway fluctuating? sometimes 15 sen sometimes 17sen ?

The call rate for domestic calls are still 14sen and 15sen. NO CHANGE. 17sen is impossible. Nitetone provides online 1 day delay itemised bill at http://login.redtone.com/ where you can verify it yourself. Every calls are recorded and itemised for crystal clear transparency.

If you forgot your card ID (for login purposes), please call CS 1800877790 for it.

Is it just me or can't we sms the contact after we insert the 1800... in front of the number? Can call but can't sms thus I have to delete the 1800 after I make the phone call.

Other tips
1) Please save the 1800112860 toll free access no. in your phone contacts and assign one touch speed dial for speedier calling to ad hoc phone numbers .
2) You can add/register up to a total of 10 phone numbers to share your one Nitetone credit. Call 1800112860 -> press * -> press 4.
4) When saving phone contact 1800112860p016xxxxxxx, please don't override the original contact number. Just create a new contact name ie. MR XXX NT. The original contact number is needed for sending sms.

For less frequently called numbers, you can opt for send DTMF method.

Just bought RM10 - and got the sms within 5 minutes. Started using it immediately and below are my comments :

1. International IDD mobile - somehow could not go through
2. International IDD home phone - EXCELLENT!!!!

Will definitely buy more. I am a mega heavy user of IDD calls. Definitely much cheaper than my postpaid IDD rates and much better call quality from the other IDD prepaids I have used.

Question : Lets say in the middle of the night I run out of credit and need to top up... How? Transfer and sms you like normal? What if you are asleep?

Can we purchase the top up at 7eleven?

Thank you for the feedback.
Kindly provide me the IDD mobile number you are having problem with. We will do a comparison Nitetone test call and a direct telco test call. You should be able to call any IDD mobile number.

My top up service is from 8am to 11.30pm 24/7. You can get a free membership with a upfront purchase of RM60 stored value (e-Account) then do a self top up (min RM10) at any time you like and enjoy 10% discount.
