SMS callback – this is one of our most asked about features and rightfully so. SMS callback allows you to make a call simply by sending an SMS. Why is this so useful you ask? First of all, it can save you huge amounts on roaming fees (meaning that you use your sim card when travelling overseas) because an incoming call is much cheaper than an outgoing call. Secondly, you can make a call at our super low rates anytime, without being near a computer. Before getting started just make sure that you have credit in your account and have set your mobile number in the SMS callback feature.

Scheduled calls – do you have a conference call for work tomorrow, or a special birthday wish you need to make, why not schedule the call now and forget about it ? This way you will receive the call exactly at the time you need to at the most efficiency. If the call will be from your mobile, then you will also receive an SMS 5 minutes before to remind you.

Local numbers -  our brightest feature allows you to make your calls directly from any phone, no need for a computer or accessing PokeTALK. You just need to login once and assign your destination number, then you will get a local number which forwards to the number you would like to be connected to. Also you need to make sure that you are calling from a phone that is already added into your ‘Registered Numbers’ and that your caller id is on so our system may recognize your Pro account.

Thank you and we are looking forward to reply to any questions you may have,

We recently sent out a survey asking users about their favorite PokeTALK services and how they can be improved. Surprisingly, the send sms feature was at the top of the list for favorite features since using a keyboard is so easy to type, and because you have the ability to add a name or a number to send as id to the receiver.

In light of the adoration for the send sms, we have made some upgrades.

You can now view the last 20 sms’s sent and can resend them by simply poking on them. This is very useful if you want to sms the same person since it adds their number into the senders list, as well as if you want to send the same sms again.

Another feature to make sending sms even easier, you can now add numbers directly from your address book. If you want to sms your entire contact list, there is also an icon to add them in 1-click. This is all built into the sms interface so if you are a big sms’er you will love it.

As always, your sms’s will be free with your bonuses so enjoy !
