Not sure why you're linking to 4 month old news, but FreedomPop has started taking beta customers in the past few days - see

So that those subscribed to this thread see the news that a Beta is now being rolled out.

Duh.

VOIP service, uses app to make calls & text , never got 4g signals even though i get 4g on three network, Rubbish sound quality, probably still under beta testing. But not happy to use APP in order to use this service.. I tested few calls and sound breaks both side. I need to confirm if anyone got 4g signals on the sim yet ?

If you after only 200 mb data then its worth.

You forgot to mention that Calls and text are done over Data so you have to download an app i think it's a bit like skype so the call quality won't be all that i would think.

Another thing is your data protection Freepop will be giving it to other companies so you may get loads of junk mail and spam.:mad:

I'll be giving it a miss.

All calls and texts on all networks surely are done over data of some sort?

Anyone know whether calls to the FreedomPop mobile number will be treated as premium rate?

For example, calls to some networks (Lyca?) are charged at premium rates and may not be included in call allowances.

It appears to be using the 07400 prefix, which is a normal Three UK prefix.
