Making Free Calls With Jaxtr

Hate to admit it, but before today I have never even heard of Jaxtr at all. Clearly, VoIP comments on Twitter are still a work in progress for @Jaxtr, despite them maintaining a fair presence on the social networks otherwise.

The way the service works is as follows. The user dials into a toll free number from wherever (mobile/land line), then Jaxtr SMS’ a message to the people you wish to speak to. Apparently, from then on, you are able to speak to folks for free. Sounds like a bit confusing to me, but its a free phone call. Who is going to complain about that? Best of all, there is no need to visit the Jaxtr website. That is right, you can do the entire thing without ever visiting, according to the article linked above. No websites to visit, free phone calls, not too shabby!

Then there is the option where the same user can instead, choose to pay for a low cost connection as to connect with your contacts immediately. Still, it should be noted that this is hardly the only way to make free phone calls, as Chris points out below.
