Top 10 Frequently Asked Questions

What is Wizzl software?

Wizzl is free communication software which will allow you and your friends to make free voice and video calls over the internet, and calls to local and international phones and mobiles from only 1.5 Eurocents per minute. And it doesn't stop there; with Wizzl's all-in-one virtual phone, Wizzlers will have direct access to live TV, internet radio stations and the most popular web games around. Personal photographs, music and videos will also be at users' fingertips.

How much does Wizzl cost?

Nothing. Wizzl software really is free of charge.

Is it possible to get a new Wizzlname?

No, in this phase of development it's not possible to get a new Wizzlname (so if 'Fluffy Bunny' is something you'll tire of quickly perhaps it's best avoided!). You can, on the other hand, change you screenname and select the way that you appear in the contact lists of your contacts at any time.

How can I make free internet calls?

Select the Wizzler in your contact list. Click on the computer icon behind the Wizzler's name and click on the green 'Call' button to initiate the call.

Can I make emergency calls with the Wizzl software?

It is not advised to call emergency numbers with the Wizzl software. Remember one of the preliminary terms of the EULA, stating that: 'By entering into this License Agreement, you expressly acknowledge, understand and accept that neither Wizzl software nor any and all (payable) Wizzl services provided through or in conjunction with Wizzl software, such as the payable communication service WizzlOut, are intended to support or carry emergency calls to the emergency services and that neither Wizzl software nor any and all (payable) Wizzl services can be considered to be a traditional telephone service or a replacement for your primary telephone service. Important distinctions (some, but not necessarily all, of which are described in this License Agreement) exist between the traditional telephone service and the features or functions and applications that may be explicitly provided by Wizzl through or in conjunction with Wizzl software.'

Which headset and/or Webcam is best?

Wizzl functions with almost any good installed headset or webcam from any brand. Some brands have their own drivers and these drivers are supplied as a CD-ROM or can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website.

Where do I buy Wizzl credits?

Click on the 'Actions' button in the top menu and click on 'Buy Wizzl credits'. Use your Wizzlname and password to log on to 'MyAccount'. Choose 'Buy Wizzl credits'. Follow the instructions on the screen.
