I have lost my password. What should I do?^ top

Use our password retrieval module on the Buy Credits page.

Can I link a DID number to my FreeCall account?^ top

Yes you can, if you use a DID-number supplier you have to forward your DID to: username@sip.FreeCall.com

I have registered but haven't received a confirmation email^ top

Should you not receive our subscription email due to spam filters for example your registration may still have been successful. Please try an hour after registration if you can make calls using FreeCall.

What kind of payment methods do you offer?^ top

FreeCall offers various ways to pay, including major credit/debit cards, banktransfers, PayPal, Moneybookers and depending on where you live various local payment methods. Login to your account and select "buy credits" to see which payment method suits you best. Should your preferred method of payment not be included you can also check Moneybookers or Paypal as they offer even more local payment methods.

I have just bought some credit but my account balance is not updated?^ top

Account balances are updated centrally, so you may need to wait a couple of minutes in order to get the most accurate update.

If you have just placed a new order please ensure you check your payment status by signing in to your account and checking your purchases. Only orders that are listed as "Completed" will appear in your balance.

One suggestion is that you place a call even if the purchased credit isn't showing yet. Often the balance shown can take longer to update but calls can still be made. If your call goes through successfully the balance will be updated immediately.

My order status shows "COMPLETED" but no credits are added to my account?^ top

In some cases customers have experienced longer than expected delays in between orders being processed and credits appearing in balances. Generally it should only take minutes, but in a small number of cases customers may have to wait longer for their balance to reflect the purchase.

You can always check your order status in the My Purchases section of your personal pages. We suggest you attempt to place a call even if the purchased credits have not appeared yet. In some cases the shown balance may take some time to update and placing a VoIP-Out call can often trigger an immediate update. If your order is listed as "Completed" you WILL receive your credits.

How long does my credit last for calls?^ top

At FreeCall, your credit will NOT expire.

Are there any other charges to pay?^ top

I want to change the country in my invoice address.^ top
