NMS & WITCOM-developed ringback service helps SK Telecom customers save up to 50 percent
I may not be a huge fan of ringback tones or ringback videos, but I do like ringtones. However, today, a partnership between telecommunications services platform provider NMS Communications and Korean mobile services developer WITCOM Co. Ltd., SK Telecom, has launched a new ringback tone service, called T-Ring, which allows its subscribers to know when they are making in-network calls.
SK Telecom’s new service automatically sends a special ringback tone that lets the caller know that the call is in-network, meaning that the charges will be lower than an out-of-network call.
This way, for the truly "cheap", they can let the call go to voicemail or answer the call and only stay on for a short while, since they know it’s a more expensive call. Personally, I think you already have a bucket of minutes that are "free" as part of your plan, so it doesn’t matter if it’s in-network or out-of-network. If you’re going over your bucket of minutes it’s time to change your plan anyway.
Nevertheless, after the jump is the news release which explains it all.
