Subscribing to LangCommLingo requires a single payment and thereafter customers only incur costs when they require an interpreter. Interpreter charges are based upon a set “per minute” cost, irrespective of the language or the time of day. LangCommLingo charges the customer’s credit card directly.

Upon subscribing to LangCommLingo, the client receives an email and SMS message automatically which includes the phone number and instructions on how to access the service, an account number and language codes. Customers then have the ability to be connected with an interpreter instantly over the telephone by dialling either a US or UK based phone number.

LangCommLingo’s service can be accessed via a fixed telephone, mobile/ cell or VOIP. Depending on the situation, the interpreter can be heard via the phones speaker, or via a 3 way connection in a remote situation.

“Anyone who has travelled internationally will have experienced problems with communication, because of the language barrier, at some time or other”, says Chris Crothall, CEO of Transatlantic Translations. “It can be quite fun when ordering a meal in a restaurant and you get it wrong, but when the matter is less frivolous then communication is paramount”, Crothall continues. “The LangCommLingo Telephone Interpreting service literally does put an interpreter in your pocket when you are travelling. “LangCommLingo gives travellers the peace of mind which goes with knowing that communication is not going to be the issue in a difficult situation”, Crothall states. “It may be a hotel reservation that has gone astray, or perhaps your luggage; it could be a collision in your hire car, or the need for some urgent medical treatment. LangCommLingo’s 24/7 service across 150 languages could literally be a life-saver in certain emergency situations”.
