Pulse Telecom - any reviews?
« on: January 19, 2010, 11:56:50 AM »
Hi guys.
I was recently relocated from Europe to the USA and I’m looking for a long distance phone company to call my relatives and my friends in Romania and Serbia. Someone told me that Pulse Telecom could be an option. Any reviews for this long distance phone calls provider?
Thanks.

Nah, it totally sucks. We just use AT&T. You should as well, comrade.

I am with AT&T right now, but I pay 35 cents/min to call Romania and 50 c/min to call Serbia. It's an extortion!!!   >:(

By the way, what countries do you call and how about the rates?

I recommend just using a VoIP provider for international calling.

Skype is about 12 cents per minute for Romania and Serbia.
ZenoFon is just 2 cents for Romania. I don't see Serbia listed on the rates page, though.

I recommend becoming a purse snatcher and using the cell phone you find inside to make your calls for free.  Or plugging in your own phone into the grey box on the outside of other people's homes and businesses.

He's in AMERICA now, he doesn't need to be stealing, he needs to be overcharged by our incumbent telecoms. Fool.

 :) Pulse Telecom is the best company ever in USA- I use them for Long Distance for 4 years,before I use to use PNG,NET,Primo,but now I am stick with this and I dont belive that I will change them ever- I can update service with them because they are keeping up- to be on top with their services-I use to have them only as a long distance provider on home phone ,after this I took them as a international long distance on my cell (because they can give you the lowest rates so you can call from your home and your cell internationaly)now they introduced me a new service that they have LOCAL and long distance as a boundle,but they dont want me to cancel my exting local provider because with them I still have contract so to avoid cancalation fee I"ll wait and after contract I will take Pulse as a Local plus long distance provider.
Check them on :https://www.pulsetele.com/Main/,or call them I have Serbian number 1-800-218-8173 to find out ,if you are not good with english they have different community,they can help you in many languages.

I am confused as to why the first post for a user is a poorly punctuated lovefest for a company.

MattGSX smells self-promotion?

Not to sound like Skunkworks, but Google Voice has cheap outbound rates for international calling. Romania is .09 a minute to call a landline in Romania and .21 a minute to a mobile. I do not know how that compares to Pulse, but I have compared the rates to other voip calling providers and they are pretty cheap.

Well, looks like Pulse may be cheaper. Check out all the fine print.

You know, sometimes if a phone service is too cheap it might have a bad connection or something is wrong with it.
That's why I'm asking for a review from customers who use the service.
Thanks, Miliana. I appreciate.
I'll take a look.

You should edit their posts to make it sound like they're huge AT&T fans.
Then delete this one so I don't ruin it.

I dunno if Miljana and Pandelo have the same account or IP cuz I'm not the admin and I don't have access to their private registration, but I can tell you that Pulse Telecom is my long distance provider and I'm happy with it. Low rates, good connection and no hide fees. I recomend this company to all Bosnians to call our country for cheap.
