Goal

To call from country A into country B at a price of a local call in country B (no mistake, country B!)

Conditions

Open a MANI-Line account online on the MANIFONE website, and have access to a traditional telephone line and broadband internet in country B.

Usage

You install your MANI-BOX in country B, and connect it to a phone line and to the Internet.

Usage 1: We provide you a set of local phone numbers in country A, that you can point to any number you like, in this case to a number in country B. When you call this local number in country A, MANIFONE will automatically connect you to your MANI-BOX in country B which completes the call at the tariffs of the landline that the MANI-BOX is connected to. All you have to do is to save the new local numbers of your correspondents into your mobile phonebook.

Usage 2: From an IP-phone, a WIFI PDA or a softphone (XLite) configured with your MANI-Line account parameters, you can directly call in the local format as though you were located in country B, while you can be actually anywhere in the world.

Real-life example

Laura is a student in London and her parents live in Milan. She opened a MANI-Line account and installed the MANI-BOX at her parents' house in Milan, where they have the "Voce flat" plan for 19 Euros a month from Tiscali with unlimited calling to all landlines in Italy.

When Laura wants to call her parents or friends in Italy using her mobile phone in London, it's enough that she dials the local UK number assigned to her Italian contacts. It is the unlimited phone line at Laura's parents in Milan that completes the call. If the number she wants to reach is not save in Laura's phonebook, she can just dial the local MANIFONE Access Number in London, and at the prompt enter the number she wants to reach.

This way, Laura can call all over Italy unlimited for just 10 Euros a month.
