The First International Homesickness Day Celebrated by Expats with A Facebook Contest and Touching Expat Videos
Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) September 28, 2016 -- KeepCalling.com, the platform dedicated to expats worldwide, launches a touching Facebook contest on the first International Homesickness Day in history, September 27, 2016. The contest will bring the winner $10 Voice Credit for international calls, which for many calling destinations means a large amount of minutes. All Facebook fans and visitors who want to participate are welcome in the KeepCalling community on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/iamhomesick/
The $10 Voice Credit prize never expires. It can be used to call more than one destination in the world and is the most time-saving and most economical alternative to calling cards. Those who enter the race starting September 27 will only have to leave an honest and personal comment to the video post on Homesickness Day, saying what they miss most about home. The winner will be selected randomly using an online tool.
$10 Voice Credit brings plenty of calling minutes with KeepCalling.com. To have an idea, that means 515 minutes to call India landlines or mobiles, up to 384 minutes to call Nigeria, or 1250 minutes to call Romania. The minimum purchase, though, is only $2 Voice Credit.
Voice Credit on KeepCalling.com allows customers to make international calls in 3 different ways, at the same low rates available on the Rates page:
- from KeepCalling app for iOS and Android devices.
- using access numbers from any phone, which requires no 3G, 4G, WiFi (no Internet connection at all)
- from one's laptop or PC to any phone in the world, using Web Call app, which is available in customers’ online account and requires no download.
The International Homesickness Day is powered by KeepCalling.com thanks to fans' feedback. Most of KeepCalling.com customers are expats from all over the world and what they have in common is homesickness. The campaign introduced Homesickness Day to the world few weeks ago by sharing timeline videos received from expats who confessed what they were missing most about home. Eastern Europeans, a Filipinos, a Vietnamese, some Bolivians and a Mexican took the floor first.
The message of the campaign on Homesickness Day is an optimistic and revelatory one: "It's OK to be homesick!" It is a natural side effect for someone who lives away from the root culture. Everyone in the diaspora feels the same for their origin culture, people and motherland.
Besides the Voice Credit service, expats, travellers or residents, who use KeepCalling.com, can also benefit from other flexible services like Monthly Plan, Mobile Recharge and Virtual Number. There is no need for a Contract. The Mobile Recharge tool facilitates international top ups of mobiles in other countries in less than 1 minute, at the lowest processing rate on the global market. Most people use it to send airtime to families and friends in their origin countries and thus support local communication or even offer them international calls.

Virtual Numbers allow one to get a number in his or her motherland and help relatives who still live there, to call him/her at their local rates, as if he/she were two streets away.
