After ending agreement with Skype, Transit creates competing service


Skype users who contracted the service number online did not know until last week, it was a Brazilian company called Transit Telecom that provided these numbers. As Skype can not legally produce the phones, it partnered in order to sell subscriptions Number Online in Brazil. The partnership ended, the divorce happened and now Transit decided that it wants to meet  users who had the Number Online  But through its own service.


That's saying an official announcement this week of Transit, which conveniently omitted the name of the service they plan to launch. Several readers of TB, however, warned in an internal memo that asked the company to promote it in their social networks, but notice that the service would have been created "in an emergency." It does not take much effort to guess the last detail after opening the page of that service, he would be called Call Me, and is available at this link.

The page now makes it clear that Call Me will be free for those who already have a subscription to the Online Number, but he says price or when it is available. Apparently those who decide to use it will have to pre-register by sending your SkypeIn number used in, then have their registration approved by the company, download a program and only then can use the same number again contracted with Skype.
