Line2, a popular VoIP calling app for Android and Apple (News - Alert) devices, and its developer, Toktumi Inc, have announced that live phone support is now available for all paying customers. With this announcement, Line2 (News - Alert) becomes the first and only mobile communication app provider to offer live phone support.
The launch of this new service will make phone support available for paid customers Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. PST. The app provider already offers 24/7 e-mail support, as well as a growing online Knowledge Vase to assist all trial customers. This phone support offering will deliver greater customer service, helping Line to differentiate itself in the market.
Line2 is positioned as the first and only tri-mode VoIP/Cell calling app in the world. To date, no other app offers the features and functionality that is found in Line2. The app provider’s tri-mode calling capabilities ensure that iPhone and Android users can place and receive calls over WiFi (News
- Alert), 3G/4G data, or cellular voice networks using the same number. This approach ensures calls will always get through.
As the only VoIP app provider to also feature carrier-grade SMS texting combined with feature-rich calling functionality, Line2 also now allows customers to use one number for both communication channels. This capability extends the value of the solution, while users also get more out of their mobile devices.
