More countries for the overseas long distance plan?

By david | Posted June 9th, 2010

Thanks for all the comments around countries we should add to our overseas long distance plan. The suggestion list is long and includes countries like Sri Lanka, Lebanon, Bangladesh, Philippines, Pakistan, Laos, Mexico, Haiti, Turkey and Thailand. We’d love to add all these countries and more.

In building the plan we tried to balance the number of countries (taking into account that each country has a different connection charge, with some being significantly more expensive) against the price of providing the service to our customers. We think we’ve come up with a pretty good mix of both number of countries and cost, but there’s always an opportunity to change and add to the list if we get enough comments and suggestions.

    I think Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia would be a good deal. Lots of people from these countries in Montreal. And as an Algerian, I will definitely be signing in.

    I’m glad to switch and support public mobile and I request others to help grow this company so they can keep coming up with good plans and keep a healthy competition.

    You gotta include Pakistan in the list, if you actually want people to switch to Public Mobile from other networks.

    The list that has been posted for the Long Distance Countries is nothing. People will just keep using Skype for calling those countries (Skype provides unlimited long distance to similar countries for a lot cheaper). You’ve to include Pakistan in the list to see huge number of people joining Public Mobile. And when I say huge number of people, I’m sure you know what scale I’m talking about.

    Congratulations on this initiative, this company would rock even more if you expand it and the concept with it worldwide! The commercialism of contemporary cell phone companies disgusts me!
