Callthrough
Callthrough allows users to call internationally by first calling a number which is charged to them at a premium (such as an 0871 number in the UK) and then dialling the number they wish to call. The operator of the service receives some revenue for the inbound call, and this pays for the outbound call.
// This is the per-minute rate which we receive for the call inpay = 0.07; answer(); sleep(1); while (1) { say("Please enter the number you wish to call, starting with 00"); ntd = ""; // Get number to dial from the caller while (1) { nd = getDTMF(4); if ((nd < 0) || (nd == '*') || (nd == '#')) { break; } ntd = ntd + nd; } // Strip off 00 ntd = ntd.substring(2); // Get rate rate = wget("http://rate.softivr.com/price/getrate.php?number=" + ntd); // Rate is of form day=0.03&eve=0.02&wkd=0.01¤cy=GBP - get day rate re = /day=([0-9\.]+)/; drate = re.exec(rate); if (drate) { if (drate[1] < inpay) { // Dial out say("Thank you. Connecting now."); log("Dialling " + ntd); dial("+" + ntd); } else { // That destination's too expensive say("Sorry. You cannot call that number through this service."); } } else { say("Sorry, but that number is invalid."); } }
