Review: Tesco Talk Wifi service

xxx

Tesco has, for some time, been bundling home handsets with an O2-partnered VoIP service, charging nothing for calls between subscribers, 2p a minute to landlines in the UK and other major countries, and 10p a minute to UK mobiles.

Its new Talk Wifi service extends the offer to Wifi-enabled mobile phones – currently only Nokia’s N95, N81, E65 and E51, either your own or bought from Tesco. In either case you send a premium-rate text to download an applet. The £1 cost is credited to your account.

The service uses the SIP standard, but calls to non-Tesco SIP users incur charges.

Talkwifi UK ( TESCO)

I?m using this service in Australia on a Nokia E51 - it is a great service and if there was more hotspots it would be perfect. At the moment it is for home,family places , work places and free Wifi areas. The calls are very clear and cheap as chips when calling the UK or USA ,wifi mobile to any mobile or landline - 1 cent per min. We also like the top-up and monitoring of accounts - very easy. All-in-all this is a great new capability, just neede more mobile phones for it to work on.
