Yahoo! Messenger is In (and Out)!

Dashken · Mar 23, 2006

We reported back in December that Yahoo! would be rolling out Phone In and Phone Out services with its Yahoo! Messenger service; the wait is finally over for those in the U.S. (it has been tested in limited international markets for some time now). To use the new services you'll need to download the new client (available at http://messenger.yahoo.com).

Using the new Phone In service, subscribers get a personal phone number for receiving incoming calls to their PC from regular phone lines and mobile phones. Those signing up can receive unlimited domestic calls for $2.99 a month or $29.90 a year. You can also purchase prepaid voice credit in $10 and $25 increments.

With the Yahoo! Phone Out service, subscribers can make PC-to-phone calls within the U.S. and to 30 other countries for two cents a minute. You can also make international calls to 180 countries; though rates weren't available at press time, we're told they will be posted at http://voice.yahoo.com.

These services are also available with Yahoo! in Español (http://espanol.yahoo.com).

Yahoo! Messenger PC-to-PC calls remain free and there are a couple of other interesting free enhancements to these services, including a new Contact Search Bar within the interface and free voicemail (for both PC-to-PC calls and Phone In calls).
