Default Does anyone know of a good pre-paid calling card for International calling.....

That I can use for a better rate than I get through my cellular phone?

I would like to use it from the U.S. to Asia and Europe....and also be able to use it from International back to U.S.

Thank you

Elliot

Check out onesuite.com. It has some of the best rates. You can also configure the calling so that you don't have to enter any pin #s, etc. and there are hundreds of local numbers which give you better rates than the 1-800 number. They also have nice web-based account managment for refills, etc. and checking on your calls.

Bummer....Onesuite.com charges the same as my mobile phone for calls to international mobile phones......also you cannot use them to call from outside the U.S. back to the U.S.

Anyone have any other ideas?

Thank you

For Calling to Europe and Asia fromthe States I would suggest Neda Calling Cards, which is what I use to call Europe all the time. They do, however, not work from outside the country back to the U.S. Rates are great, although they do also charge more to international mobile phones.

I really don't care where they are, but I've been using them for the last three years without a problem at all.... That's the best and cheapest Calling Card I've found.

I carry the MCI calling card sold at Costco. It works reliably for both international termination and origination (with the exception of the Netherlands, where international origination is unavailable from payphones). Additionally, MCI operates a circuit-switched network, and this gives you better quality than many prepaid calling cards (which are often based on VoIP platforms).

There are two MCI cards sold at Costco. One is the run-of-the-mill calling card, and the other is branded an "international" calling card. The "international" calling card has slightly to substantially lower rates for international calls to land lines, but much higher rates for calls to wireless phones. Pick up the one that best suits your calling pattern.

Thank you.

I have been using enjoyprepaid.com and paying 2.2 cents to France, Spain and Hong Kong. Wireless phones in those countries are 15 cents.....but i will look into MCI.
