  1. [R3] Rebtel 3/5 · US Buena pero tiene sus problemas: La verdad la aplicación es muy buena, y comparada con otras, es económica, qué problema veo, que hay días que se traba y no salen llamadas, el saldo no se refleja algunas veces bien sino que sale 0$ teniendo saldo, y hay países que de plano no salen llamadas como es El Salvador. Trabajo con la aplicación y algunas veces me ha tocado recurrir a otras aplicaciones
  2. [R6] Rebtel 3/5 · US The sound quality was fine until it simply cut off. I: Although I am happy with the rates, every call I have made to date has abruptly cut off. This waste immense time and cost extra money.
  3. [R16] Rebtel 1/5 · US Bad service now: I have been a RebTel customer for 10 years. Their Service used to be good. Now calls drop after 2 mins of being on the phone with people in Dubai or Kerala. The support process is very difficult. There's no simple way to get in touch with a human. They create and innundate with support tickets but nothing every happens. They close the support ticket saying I didnt respond. but
  4. [R19] Rebtel 1/5 · US Call dropped: After only 10 mins
  5. [R4] Rebtel 1/5 · US Do not give your credit card information to them.: Bunch of scammers out of the USA. Do not give your credit card information to them. They are going to charge you regardless of cancellation request until you ask your bank to stop them.
  6. [R13] Rebtel 1/5 · US Charging for just ringing: This app charges a min per ringtone!
  7. [R25] Rebtel 5/5 · US Charged after cancellation: Getting charged after subscription has been cancelled and payment information has been removed! No help available besides their useless bot…
  8. [R32] Rebtel 2/5 · US Charges for nothing: I lost more than 30 minutes of my credits to unsuccessful calls that ended up charging me a minute or two. This is the worse.
  9. [R10] Rebtel 1/5 · US No resolution from customer service!: This used to be my favorite app to use for years! Especially the customer service even if it is relatively pricey. Now they stop actually trying to resolve the problem and just beat around the bush.
  10. [R28] Rebtel 1/5 · US Ladrones: Eh realizado un pago en la app y nunca llegó una recarga que eh echo !
  11. [R30] Rebtel 1/5 · US Credits: I am trying to use my credit to pay for top-ups. I have sent messages for help and i have never being able to use it. It is a shame.
  12. [R15] Rebtel 3/5 · GB OTP failure: Unfortunately often the one time password feature often doesn’t arrive in your phone. Once it’s set up it’s ok, but the support takes time to get back to you and if you need to revalidate, you could be waiting a little while. But when it’s installed it works very well.
  13. [R18] Rebtel 3/5 · GB Not as promised: Downloaded the app and at start registering verification code never received even after trying 5 times.
  14. [R21] Rebtel 3/5 · GB Can’t signup: Can’t signup. Initially, received the code, but it wasn’t accepted for some reason. Then, tried getting a new code, no success
  15. [R7] Rebtel 1/5 · US Insanely low rates: They bring you in with discount then their price go up insanely high.

  18. [R22] Rebtel 1/5 · US Value for money: $8 and cents for a 60ghs mobile top up is cheating
  19. [R52] BOSS Revolution 5/5 · US 😻: Muy bueno todo es muy rápido me encanta
  20. [R53] BOSS Revolution 1/5 · US Money grab harassment: The app is on every step defaulting to monthly subscriptions. You are automatically opted in. I have had to cancel subscriptions I was tricked into multiple times. then when you go to cancel they also play tricks to obfuscate the cancellation process. @apple support can do a better review of this behavior.
  21. [R57] BOSS Revolution 2/5 · US Ghanaians don’t use this app: If you send money it is gonna delay and I’m not talking about minutes. It takes hours, sometimes a day, and a series of calls to perform a transaction. And they’re gonna narrate a thousand stories to explain delay and none of it is gonna make any sense. This is by far the worst money transfer app I’ve used
  22. [R62] BOSS Revolution 5/5 · US Excelente: La mejor App de envíos a RD y al mundo.

  27. [R79] International Calling－Talk360 1/5 · US Terrible interference: Person in other end cannot hear me. Close to impossible to hear them. Calling from Helsinki Finland on US cell phone to a Finnish land line number for airline. Don’t waste your money. If this service does not work when it really counts it’s worthless

  31. [R94] International Calling 5/5 · US Great Honest App: Good quality voice Your balance never disappears and easy top off
  32. [R95] International Calling 1/5 · US Waste of time. Usless: To sign up you need a working phone number that can receive texts. I'm currently traveling and just need to call a usa number. My phone doesn't work cause I'm out of the usa. This is totally useless! Like how about another form of verification? Imessage? Whatsapp? Upload and id? Nope, they don't offer any other option. If I had a working phone number I would just use that in
