Är Viber verkligen gratis?

Viber använder sina applikationer via internet. Den höga räkningen kanske beror på att Ni har surfat för x antal megabyte som i sin tur kostar mycket pengar.

Eller Wifi från en hotspot/trådlöst rauter hemma.

Tveksamt. Om de skulle göra något skulle de blockera Viber, inte lägga en kostnad på det.

Ts: kan din sambo inte beställa en samtalsspecifikatkion? Isåfall kan ni ju se när och till vem hon har ringt till när pengarna har dragits. Kanske kan hjälpa er att hitta problemet.

Varför inte bara be om detaljerad specifikation så ser du vad som kostar pengar på abonnemanget?

viber använder internet då om den andra har viber också, och för att ringa gratis då måste du har gratis internet.. så har du inte gratis internet blir det inget gratis viber

Använd skype istället är väl i princip samma sak. ( Tror de funkar )

Jag använder viber dagligen.

Nya versionen av Viber har integrerat telefonens funktioner. Förr va den renodlad iptele, nu funkar begge.

Väljer man en kontakt finns 4 alternativ
call viber (lila)
send messege (lila)
call mobile
send messege

om man tar de lila går det via iptele vilket är gratis. Men har motparten inte Viber finns inte dessa 2 lila alternativen och det blir ett vanligt samtal ist.
Ngt knepigt jag upptäckt var att ifall ett samtal bryts med gratis så kommer en ruta upp som frågar om jag vill ringa som vanligt samtal ist.

Hi,

This is a member of the Viber R&D Team!

Excuse me, my Swedish is not so good, so I will write in English

@Casper_83-Viber itself - the app and the service - is totally free, meaning we (Viber) don't charge anything from you.

Since Viber uses the internet to function, both sides of the conversation must be connected to either WiFi or 3G. If a user is connected to WiFi - that user is not paying anything for sure. If the user is connected to 3G, the user *may* be paying his cellular company for the data (Viber uses 0.25MB per minute of call), but that depends on the specific data plan that he has with his cellular company, and needs to be verified with them.

If you have any question about Viber - please feel free to ask.

Thank you,
Viber Team

awesome customer support. Keep it up

It's our pleasure to be here and help

By the way, we wanted to ask our Swedish users this:

We have recently heard reports of Viber being blocked in some 3G networks in Sweden. Is this true? Is Viber already blocked, or it's just a plan of the cellular operators?

Do you have any more information about this issue that can help us?

Thank you in advance

Hi,

The reports are true, basically all operators ranging from Telia to Tele2 have some kind of plans to block VoIP.
I don't think it's been implemented yet tho, it's still just a plan.

There are a couple of articles about it:

Cheers!

All,

Thank you so much for your kind responses!
So we understand that everything is still ok (for now...) and that Viber fully functions on all 3G networks in Sweden.

We would like to kindly ask you that if this changes - if the blocks are indeed implemented one day - then please let us know here in SweClockers.
The sooner we know about it, the sooner we'll be able to act The last thing we would want is to lose our Swedish users!

Of course, for any other question/suggestion for Viber, always feel free to contact me right here.

Have a great week,
the Viber Team

Thank you very much for the link!
This is indeed troubling news

We will try to stay updated on the news that come from Sweden in that regard and see if there is even anything that we can do to prevent this.
Meanwhile, may we ask that if you have any news, you will keep us informed through this forum? The sooner we know about it, the greater the chances that we could contact the operators..

Thank you, and feel free to contact me for any other question/suggestion you might have for Viber.

Har telia spärrat Viber nu ? Får fördröjningar på meddelanden, igår 12 timmar. Idag tog det 3 för ett meddelande att nå fram.
Edit: det var mottagarens iphone som behövde en omstart. Nu fungerar det igen

Finns det något sätt att slippa Viber på? Morsan blir uppringd av dem med jämna mellanrum.
