Can I use callback if I am staying in a hotel?

Yes you can - If the telephone at which you wish to be called back is in a hotel, or connects through a manual switchboard, you can record a message asking the switchboard operator to connect the call to your room or office. Click here for instructions on how to set this up.

How do I pay for my calls?
United World Telecom will debit your Visa, MasterCard, American Express or JCB card on a monthly basis. Invoices may be sent by airmail or email (but we recommend email as there is a USD 2 charge for airmail). Monthly invoices include a detailed breakdown of all calls made during the period. You can also prepay your UWT account - see below for details.

Can I prepay my account and not use a credit card?
You can prepay your account - click here for details.

Can I use this system from my mobile phone?

Yes - just set your mobile phone number as the callback number. Please note that calls to mobile phones are generally more than calls to a landline in the same country. However, UWT's rates are likely to be significantly less than the international rates offered by your mobile phone provider.
