Forum Tel Cuts Cost of Using Mobile Phones Abroad

Forum Tel is now making it more convenient and affordable to use a mobile phone during international travel. Forum Tel is a global mobile communications provider for the travel, tourism and hospitality industries and their customers. The company is dedicated to alleviating the high costs and hidden fees associated with traditional international phone usage by offering travelers access to a low cost, reliable cellular voice and data service delivered on a high-quality, quad-band world phone. With Forum Tel, travelers save as much as 80 percent on roaming and long distance charges while earning distribution partners a robust commission.

Forum Tel is now available through participating distributors in the travel, tourism and hospitality industries. For distributors, Forum Tel offers the unique opportunity to stay in touch with customers while they are traveling. With Forum Tel’s SMS Blast! capability, distributors can reach out to customers mid-trip for things like service updates and revenue-generating marketing offers.

Use of the phone is provided for free and, unlike pre-paid calling cards, customers pay post-usage for only the calls and texts made and received. Travel service providers can simply integrate Forum Tel into their tours, cruises, vacation rentals, travel insurance, study abroad programs or any international travel program. Forum Tel distributors can brand the service as desired and are commissioned for the usage of every phone ordered.

Forum Tel users can either pick up their call-ready phone on site at participating hotel and retail locations, or U.S. travelers can have phones shipped to them three days before their trip. When travelers return home, phones are shipped back to Forum Tel or purchased for a small fee.
