Just a quick one to say that we are delighted to announce a very competitive UK mobile price drop from 9.5p ex VAT to 7p ex VAT for calls to O2, 3, Orange, T-Mobile and Vodafone using SureVoIP.
Enjoy!

Those of you on Twitter would have seen the news first, but in case you didn’t:
The first one is cool and shows you how the social media sector can pay for itself when an app is released free. Instagram allows you to takes pics and automatically upload them up to Twitter, Facebook and do fancy effects on them. The native Facebook iPhone app was clunky to use with pics.
There are also 13 guys in Instagram now all worth almost $100m (CEO got most). The general comment is that the Android release last week had a big impact on the deal and also their powerful RESTful API and OAuth 2 (just like the SureVoIP API, but we weren’t first 
).
The scary news is that the newly owned Microsoft patents are so powerful. They just bought one for SSL, you know, the thing that allows you to go to https:// for your bank and the whole web.
There’s a lot of other mobile patents in that list too. Food for thought as to what damage they can do in the future like create a Microsoft tax for many things and kill a lot of mobile innovation and there’s even some in there about VoIP!
A quick update to say that following extensive testing SureVoIP have been short-listed as a finalist in the ITSPA Awards in the Best Business ITSP category
Business has been amazing here and 2012 is going to be fantastic. We’ve got some big PR coming out soon and some other technical announcements (API, mobile Apps). Our store is also being worked on to help streamline the signup process with better pricing on hardware too.
Anyway, we’ve now doubled our VoIP capacity with BT wholesale to meet this new and upcoming business and brought on a new location with them. Currently inbound and outbound calls go through BT wholesale in Reading and our other 3 carriers at different locations. We’ve now added Manchester to this which means we have another site for resilience. That’s London, Reading, Manchester and Edinburgh.
Thanks,
Gavin.
