People who need to make international calls but are wary of the costs of doing so can now use something that is less expensive. The app is the TEL3Dialer app for the iPhone, which allows any user to dial direct to the person they are calling at low rates and superior call quality.

Once a customer downloads TEL3Dialer on the App Store, users can expect a lot of savings while enjoying the flexibility and the convenience of their iPhone. With this application, they will be able to make International calls for pennies that will be debited from their prepaid TEL3 balance while using only regular domestic airtime with their existing wireless provider.

TEL3 is an International prepaid calling service that is available from any phone in the US and Canada. The Company last year introduced software for Blackberry and over 450 other smart phone models to enable its users to make direct International calls that will be charged again only with low rates of TEL3 instead of very expensive cell phone provider rates.
