Do you know if all the operators will leave you to make VoIP calls with WhatsApp?

We have some very busy weeks with WhatsApp calls, that keep coming to Android little by little, dropper, as the company a medida que la compania va is closing and opening the doors of their servers to allow the entry of new users. But although many want the implementation either total to start saving money on mobile calls, would have you wondered if the operators are putting coto this revolution that is coming?

Many have said times operators will not sit idly watching how the only business that is left untapped, the GSM voice calls, is going to pique by the same application which ended with SMS and MMS, WhatsApp, and so will try to losing that hand pay on the other. So I believe your data rate ‘ has permission ‘ to perform those VoIP calls?

The lowest fares can’t do it

Today already are majority carriers that have changed the conditions of use in recent times to adapt to this new reality, which is why we will not find obstacles to this kind of data calls with most of the rates that are on the market. If you go to the page of your operator and download fair use ‘conditions’, you will see the VoIP… permitted except in three exceptions.

He is MoviStar, Vodafone and Yoigo, although they allow trouble-free to make calls through WhatsApp (when active at all) in most of their contracts, their rates are prohibited to do so. It’s the rates lives first, Mini or Smart in the case of the second and the zero 1.2 GB on the third.

There is solution paying…

Anyway there is a possibility to activate these calls on our rate, if it is that we don’t want to change it, which is resorting to a series of extra bonuses for Vodafone can be activated via SMS and covering two periods of time: 24 hours for 2.42 euros or an entire month by 7.26. In the case of Telstra has a product called Bono VoIP that allows us to consume 100MB for 3 euros.

What seems clear is that the market is moving and upcoming dates we will see how the operators are facing this challenge also lose business from the minutes and establishments called GSM. Although you only have to look abroad, to other countries, to see how you are solving it is, precisely, offering flat rates for truth, both calls and data, which makes options such as call through WhatsApp lost much of its importance. By that knowing that every month we draw what we call and whom to call to pay the same, who will need VoIP applications and their metal sound?
