Following his recent attendance at the Scottish Tele-Healthcare summit, held within Aldourie Castle in Inverness and hosted by Highlands & the Islands Enterprise, Tom Morton, CEO of Argyll, realised that whilst there was a clear appetite within clinicians and care providers for the exploration and possible adoption of new mobile technology to improve and extend the quality and levels of care being delivered to service users, there was no real appetite for the risks associated in trialling such equipment.

Consequently Tom decided to conduct a trial himself by travelling the length of the new Hadrians Wall National Trail that runs from Wallsend in North Tyneside and Bowness-on-Solway in Cumbria, a distance of approximately 84 miles and that follows the original path of the Roman wall built between AD100 and AD160 through city streets, suburban residential areas, small rural villages and the open countryside.

Tom (46) was accompanied on the trip by Michael Johnson (60), a long-standing family friend. The duo set off at 2pm on Friday 6th August with an aim to complete the trail within 4 days. A Smartcare GPS device, containing a mobile phone, global positioning system (GPS), fall detection sensor and an SOS button to summons assistance placed inside each of their rucksacks. Both devices were linked to a 24/7 monitoring facility to handle any alarms raised. In order to test the mobile phone coverage, one device was connected to O2 and the other to Orange/Everywhere.

Both devices were configured to use GPS to trace positions over a maximum of 16 hours each day between 0600 and 2200 hours and to plot their exact positions at intervals of 10 minutes. Individual device ‘wake up’ times were also staggered to commence their reporting 5 minutes apart. Position reports were displayed, via the internet, on a familiar Google® map where friends, family and colleagues were able to visit the Argyll company website and view the intrepid duo’s progress.

A UK based call provider has pledged to help football fans and their families avoid extortionate mobile bills with cheap international calls to South Africa during the World Cup.

Following a report by the Telegraph and mobile phone analyst Billmonitor, it was revealed that fans using British mobiles in South Africa could expect to pay a staggering £410 for just two week’s worth of calls and texts.

Even using the UK’s cheapest mobile phone network – Virgin Mobile – could result in a bill of around £201 due to ‘roaming’ fees.

Despite being thousands of miles away, friends and family could also suffer the cost of keeping in touch with South Africa but this needn’t be the case when using an affordable direct dial access code with the likes of Firstnumber.

Firstnumber.co.uk currently offers over 250 access codes that allow consumers and businesses alike to make cheap international calls at a heavily discounted rate.

Firstnumber.co.uk spokesperson Andy Steele hopes the service will allow football fans and those trying to contact them make drastic savings.

“Since UK mobile phone aren’t protected by price caps outside the European Union, there’s no limit as to how much someone can be charged for phone calls, texts and data transfer.

“A great way to avoid bills of hundreds of pounds is to pick up a cheap South African sim card. This lets you communicate with other people in the country at local rates but also allows friends and family back in the UK to get in touch for as little as 4p a minute with Firstnumber’s direct dial access code.”

A UK based cheap international call provider is attempting to combat the rise of credit card fraud by providing consumers with a telecoms service that doesn’t require card details or up front payment.

Firstnumber.co.uk currently offers over 250 access codes that allow consumers and businesses to make cheap international calls - http://www.firstnumber.co.uk/cheap-international-calls - at a heavily discounted rate.

When using the service, consumers simply input an access code before the number they wish to dial and the cost of the call – starting from 1p per minute – is then added to their monthly phone bill.

Firstnumber.co.uk spokesperson Andy Steele hopes the service will provide callers with more options that don’t involve parting with sensitive, personal information at a time when credit card fraud is on the rise.

“Online credit card fraud in the UK rose by 55% in 2009 alone. Despite this startling statistic, consumers - particularly those of us who shop online – are still parting with personal data and financial details in potentially unsecured environments.

“The easiest way to wipe out fraud is to eliminate credit card use altogether which is why Firstnumber’s service doesn’t require an account to be set up, upfront payment or personal details of any sort.”

Despite the introduction of chip and PIN in 2006, last year saw banks and consumers fork out a record £39 million to cover the costs of online banking fraud.

Although banks have done their bit to keep up to speed with the latest security technologies, 90 per cent of online credit card related fraud is linked to computer owners entering their details on unsecured home computers.

‘Phishing scams’ – whereby consumers are lured into handing over personal information – also rose to 26,000 over the course of 2009.

Today VoAPPs announced the availability of telePARTICLES, a set of “Telecom APPs” that easily integrate into software applications, back office systems, and business processes. Available in an APP Store format, the company is releasing the first 3 telePARTICLES including:

Service Type :
Determines if a telephone number
is a Mobile or a Landline number

Mobile Working Number :
Determines whether a Mobile number is working and dialable

Number Scrubber :
Cleanses a list of phone numbers
to remove duplicates, numbers
with invalid formats, etc.

telePARTICLES are designed to make it easy for people to do Telecom Tasks that should be simple – but that are actually hard to do. “I looked around and realized that it’s really hard to find out if a phone number is a mobile number or a landline number. That led me to wonder why it’s so hard to find out if a mobile number is working or not”, says David King, President of VoAPPs. “I found it inconceivable that this kind of basic telecom information was not available to every Telecom Application, to the average Business Process Manager, or to most Software Developers – so we decided to fix that.”

Most of the Telecom APP providers in the market today are designed to be ‘platforms’ for software developers. They provide basic telephony functions like making a call, recording a caller’s responses, or even building an entire call center. telePARTICLES are different.

telePARTICLES are designed to open up a new and different set of functionality to both software developers and non-developers alike. So, in addition to supporting flat files and providing a RESTful API for developers, most telePARTICLES also support web queries and Excel templates for easy access by Business Process Owners and End Users. Certain telePARTICLE APPs can even be accessed and used from a mobile phone via the company’s Launchpad which can be found at www.teleparticles.mobi.

A UK based cheap international call provider has pledged to help people living in Britain keep in touch with family and friends in Thailand as simmering political tensions continue to grow.

http://www.firstnumber.co.uk currently offers over 250 access codes that allow consumers to make cheap international calls at a heavily discounted rate; Thailand is just one of the countries serviced by the company – http://www.firstnumber.co.uk/cheap-international-calls/cheap-calls-to/thailand

Violence and tension has continued to escalate in the country as anti-government protesters known as Red Shirts clash with security forces amid calls for an election.

Firstnumber.co.uk spokesperson Andy Steele hopes the service will allow individuals based in Britain to keep in touch with loved ones during the continued political uprising.

“Following the Foreign Office’s recommendation that Britons should avoid travelling to Thailand it’s understandable that many people will be concerned about the safety of friends and family who are resident in the country.

“Phoning a far flung location such as Thailand can be a costly business. At Firstnumber however we appreciate that peace of mind is priceless which is why we’re proud to offer affordability with calls to Thai mobiles and landlines priced at just 1 pence a minute from any BT landline.”

It is also hoped that businesses will make use of Firstnumber’s cheap call tariffs as a means to continue trading over the phone when travel to the Thailand is too dangerous.

Firstnumber’s service is also one of the cheapest on the market with more generously discounted calls to Thailand than those advertised by the likes of Rate Buster, Joy Telecom and Pocket Dial UK.

Daisy Group will now have a permanent base in the North East after confirming its BNS acquisition site, based in Prudhoe, will remain open.

A leading provider of integrated voice and data services to the small-medium business market, Daisy now adds Northumberland to its business centres in Lancashire, London and the Midlands.

After the acquisition of BNS in February, interim managing director Chris Jagusz, was appointed to ensure business as usual continued in the North East. Following a successful few months and a full review of the business by Daisy, it has been confirmed the BNS site is key to future growth of the Daisy Group with the office remaining operational.

“Before making any decisions about the future of the company and eventual integration we were committed to fully understanding the BNS business,” said Chief Operating Officer Gareth Kirkwood.

“We believe there is a strong business here and we have realised greater synergies than expected, with a cost effective operation in North East.“We have been continually impressed by the quality and enthusiasm of the people at BNS and I am pleased to say that we really do see Prudhoe as being a key part of the Daisy growth story going forward.”

At the time of the acquisition, Daisy’s 29th to date, BNS was recognised by the management team as a well run business.

“With a large base of existing network customers and access to data and IP telephony products, I am convinced that BNS’ product offering will enhance Daisy’s portfolio in its target market of small-medium businesses,” said Kirkwood.

Chris Jagusz, interim MD, added: “As the group anticipates future growth it is important the business has the capabilities in place to support those plans. With the recognised skills within the BNS team and expertise to make more products available to small-medium business customers, it makes absolute sense to retain our presence in the North East.”
