I noticed that the so called China call back number has been changed without email notice from italk bb recently.

This morning I got a request from a ibbtalk user who is frustrating which is the real call back number 中国通用号码. He is in China now and need to use that number to contact his U.S. home. Here is the current up-to-date italkbb number as well as his request.

From http://galaxy3.com:

As of 8/4/2009, the verified italkbb China call back number 中国通用号码 is 4006-768-303.

“一到晚饭时就有各种骚扰电话过来，有中文的dish, italkbb, verizon的，也有英文mortgage ”… We have received such complaints many times and people believe it is the italkbb that harassing them, well, this is not true because those unwanted phone calls are made from “shan-zhai” italkbb - some bad italkbb dealers who fake them as official italkbb company sales representatives, made call to finish the sales make the commission.

As a legitimate voip service provider, i-talk-bb company respect all users privacy, any out-bound sales call will be verified against the “do not call list” (if you register your phone number at www.donotcall.gov) before it is made. However, shan-zhai italkbb dealer doesn’t care about this, they hire telemarketing representative at China, with the voip phone technology, some fake the caller id and will tell you they are calling from U.S. italkbb headquater… most likely, they mislead user with expired promotion.  

We understand it’s annoying when people are not ready but are talked (pushed) to buy something like talkbb phone and we only promote the italkbb phone on the net www.galaxy3.com

Now you may ask how to avoid those calls? Generally speaking, you first need to register your phone at donotcall.gov, then whenever you get the unwanted phone, say this to the one on the other side “I will file the complaint on donotcall website and will also call italkbb official site to report this call” - italkbb company will investigate this unwanted call because they don’t want to get involved into law issues or get fined by federal govenment, they will seriously retrieve the dealer’s authorizations for violations.

Any another ways to stop the annoying italkbb telemarketing calls? 群众是真正的英雄 Here are something funny from the web searching:

1)上周我在做饭，就交给不到四岁的儿子，就听见儿子跟那边有一搭没一搭的胡扯，估计两边谁都听不懂，那边的接线生哪能有这耐性，过了几分钟，我都听到话筒里短线了，儿子还在讲。现在再有电话找我，直接转给儿子，“你的电话“

2)ItalkBB 电话公司的疯女人光今晚就打了三次骚扰电话总数加起来足有上百次，刚开始还有耐心拒绝，到后来真是不胜其烦，请她们不要再打，她们却依然如故, 为什么有脸皮这么厚的女人？最后一次，我很严肃地说，哥们，再打的话我一定报FBI。另外，请把我的名字从你的数据库里移走。 

We suggest you don’t be fooled by any promising calls, take your time and you can turn off the phone “deals” first, then go to its official italkbb site, take a peek do some research and then google a promotion code, call official sales hot line 1-877-italkbb, clarify any questions such as cancel and return policy before you make decision, you don’t have to worry about to be misleaded with the real italkbb sales.

I always want to test iTalkbb outside U.S. since I first time learned that iTalkBB rely only on the internet, doesn’t matter where you are.

Last week, I had a mini vacation in China.

I brought the iTalkBB adaptor back with my luggage. I couldn’t wait to test it when I got my parents home. They have FIOS internet with download speed upto 2Mbit/s and upload speed up to 0.6Mbit/s.

I connected the iTalkbb box, powered on and booom…the green lights were on and it indeed worked for me! I then made several calls to U.S. and it sounded great without delay and echo. I could hear that friends in U.S. were watching CCTV4 …

Not enough though, I then also made my friends call me back…but…!@#$%^&…..could not get through…???

I was a bit disapointed. Next day, I called iTalkBB tech support and they finally figured out that I plugged the phone jack into “line2” which was not correct. After switching to “line1” on the iTalkBB box, the phone worked for both ways…I could received call from U.S. with same quality! (使用SPA2102 italkbb 盒子的用户,记得要把电话线连接在line1,不然电话只出不进).

So give it a try when you are out of town, many hotels room providing internet connection and iTalkbb can work for you anywhere.

If you don’t already have iTalk bb, I recommend you take a look at http://galaxy3.com for recent iTalkBB promotion, actually, to signup with promotion code you can save more dollars.

We have been asked many times for the same question: Are there any hidden cost for iTalk BB?

Let’s look at the advertised $299/year ibbtalk global unlimited plan. If one actually follows through the registration steps on www.italkbb.com, it would turn out like below:

There is a $9.99 shipping fee, a $zero device deposit for Linksys SPA-1001, and $35.4 applicable regulatory fees and taxes.

Using  promotion code “678710″ can save you $10 instantly, making the total $334.39, deposit would return to you upon service cancelation if you choose SPA-2102. 

There could be additional usage charge billed monthly if you make calls to countries that is not covered in the ibbtalk plan or to cellphone numbers in some countries like Taiwan.  We recommend you avoid calling mobile phones except for China, HongKong and Singapore.

Basically the hidden costs for i talk bb are $35.4 ($2.95/month), the italkbb tax and fees, which we have explained in previous post.

为什么iTalkBB以前不收取”APPLICABLE REGULATORY RECOVERY FEES, CHARGES AND TAXES”现在却要收取呢？

我们的猜测是, 以前ibbtalk的用户不多,政府机构没有过问税收问题,随着用户增加,这些税对政府来说每年达百万之巨,政府发现后当然不会放过你啦, 从italkbb公司立场出发,能为客户省钱当然能提升它的吸引力和竞争力,然而现在是必须面对现实的时候了, “出来混的,总有一天是要还的”, 所以知道了来龙去脉, 骂归骂,还要请各位理解.

官方解释是: iTalkBB一直致力于以最经济的价格为用户提供高品质的语音服务。但是，iTalkBB也需要遵守相关法律。因此，从2009年2月15日起，iTalkBB将根据规定开始收取每月$2.95的”APPLICABLE REGULATORY RECOVERY FEES, CHARGES AND TAXES”。

那么什么是”APPLICABLE REGULATORY RECOVERY FEES, CHARGES AND TAXES”?
“APPLICABLE REGULATORY RECOVERY FEES, CHARGES AND TAXES”用来支付政府规定的相关费用，包括税金、号码携带费，和相关规费，并不包含在基本月费内。

用户需要为”APPLICABLE REGULATORY RECOVERY FEES, CHARGES AND TAXES”支付多少钱？
每个电话或号码,意见不管年计划还是月计划,每月一律$2.95。

哪些税金包含在”APPLICABLE REGULATORY RECOVERY FEES, CHARGES AND TAXES”里？
不管您使用何种服务，当地及州政府都会向您征收税金、附加费，或服务费等费用。这些费用并不包含在您缴交给iTalkBB的费用之中，它们可能是个固定值，也有可能须按百分比从您账单中收取，费率或规则还会根据您的账单地址而有所不同。iTalkBB为了方便用户，向您收取每月$2.95的固定费用来支付相关法令所要求的所有费用。

我每月实际所需缴交的费用有哪些？
您每月实际所需缴交的费用包括了您所选iTalkBB计划的月费，以及包含了所有相关税金及附加费的固定金额$2.95。

“APPLICABLE REGULATORY RECOVERY FEES, CHARGES AND TAXES”将如何计算？
对于新客户：
