Kokonet launches Seychelles’ first VoIP service.


Kokotalk is the new telephone service on offer in Seychelles, driving international phone rate as low as Rs3.

The new service uses Voice over Internet Protocol, VoIP technology and will benefit all Kokonetwireless broadband customers. They will be able to make phone calls and send fax worldwide via the Internet. Telephone calls between Kokotalk subscribers, are free of charge.

Since it is wireless, there’s no risk of interruption in the service, a problem which normally occurs when cable telephone lines are down,” explains Kokonet’s General Manager Peter Durup.

Clients will however need a kokotalk device that is connected via the broadband wireless system to be able to benefit from the service.

For existing wireless broadband customer, the installation fee will be Rs, 500 and Rs1, 500 to those who do not have the service (which include the wireless setup package + the kokotalk device). The service carries a monthly subscription fee of Rs50.

All equipment will remain the property of Kokonet and is returnable to Kokonet should the service be discontinued,” says Durup.

The company says negotiations with the two local telecoms are underway to allow its Kokotalk customers to make and receive calls locally, without being seen as an international number.
Kokotalk subscribers are allocated a six-digit numbers starting with 47.
