In this case, the phone call will be charged by the telecom company you signed up with. Are FreePP services totally free? Yes. Talk, message, group chat or send images all for free! In the FreePP world communication is for free! You can access it via Wi-Fi or 3G.

Why can't I synchronize my contacts or why some of my contacts do not display the FreePP symbol in my contact list when they should? These problems may occur due to the server being too busy. You can try refreshing the contact list or simply add new contacts ¨manually¨ through FreePP's menu interface. Also make sure your contacts include the correct country code (e.g.: +886) How can I change my contacs' profile pictures? The profile pictures of your contacts in the FreePP APP are synchronized with your phone's contact list. To change an individual profile picture, simply change it in your phone's contact list. How can I make international calls? Make sure you use the correct country code. This number should start with either "+" or "00"(e.g.: +886 or 00886). Then add the correct area code and finally the contact's number itself. For instance, to call a friend in China, you need to dial 0086 (China's country code). The entire number may look like this: 0086 213 430 8182.
