Sir,
I am currently located in KSA (Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia) I recieve atleast 2 calls from my family/friends from India/Kerala in a day. I have noticed that when ever a call is originated from Airtel mobile provider It is always a local number on my phone (ie. a number in Saudi Arabia even though the call is from INDIA). I thought it was just a fluke incident. Then I learned about VOIP calls that are carried out with the help of internet rather than through satellite. If that is the case Airtel is making a heck of lot of money from all of out going international calls. They are cheating the India government and cheating the customers as all of us know the voip calls are much cheaper, cheaper than 1 rs/ min to GCC countries and they charge like 9 rs/min. I have also noticed a lag time while talking of about 2 seconds which only happens in VOIP calls when internet speed is low. This is a very serious issue and huge revenue drain for our government. Can anybody alert TRAI about this.
I might be wrong but can any body come up with a genuine answer or explanation. It would be greatly appreciated
