Our Fantastic New Rate for Calls to Thailand

Monday, September 28th, 2009

Over the weekend we slashed our rates for all calls to Thailand landlines and mobiles by up to 25%!

Now, for just 0.6p GBP / 0.8¢ USD / 0.7c EUR per minute we’ll give you a high quality, reliable connection to Thailand with no connection charges, monthly fees, or other hidden costs.

Don’t forget that you can also call Thailand for free by recommending Localphone to your friends and family. It’s really easy to get started and you could be earning free calls within minutes. Find out more on our recommend page.

Thanks to your ongoing support we can continue to negotiate better rates with our suppliers, passing the savings on to you. The longer you call, and the more friends you recommend, the stronger position we’ll be in to negotiate in the future.

I’d like to thank you once again on behalf of everybody at Localphone for your continued loyalty and support.

Best wishes,
Paul Cusack, CEO.
