Why are we better than phone cards?

1. Investigate the card of interest to you. Before signing up for a long distance calling plan it is a good idea to check out the "details" link next to the card of your choice.

2. Review the rates offered: When selecting a prepaid phone card, in most cases it is usually associated with hidden charges. Be sure to pay attention to numerous hidden fees, or the phone plan can turn out to be more costly than you bargained for. Be sure to check with the calling plan provider before purchasing a calling card or signing up for a long distance service for any additional fees.

3. Consider the country and region you are calling: The majority of the calling card providers offer different rates for different regions within a country. They also have various rates when placing a call to a landline or to a wireless (mobile) phone. In most cases these providers will only disclose the country per minute rate and not the region.

4. Choose a provider you can trust . It is very common to see calling cards come and go from a retail location especially when they offer ultra-cheap calling cards and in most cases these providers do not even offer customer service when you need it the most.   You don't want to engage in a relationship with a provider that will not be there when you have a problem, nor do you want to give your credit card number to a company that is barely staying in business.
