Phone cards..

[TeRG]

I am looking into phone cards, to call between the united states and canada.

The best one i have found as of yet, Minutepass, what i used to use when i called my friend over in california, is $0.11 a minute.. im hoping to find something cheaper...

Any ideas?

Hello, I call India (since my relatives live there), I use this one: 10 cents per minute:

How many minutes per month do you use? This is cheap, if you talk enough to warrant $15 per month.

At $15/month, that's 500 minutes ($0.03 per minute for your canada calls? Not bad..)

For $30 you could go unlimited..

You do need a broadband connection ofcourse, but you're gonna want one of those anyway, eh?

sorry, when you said broadband i immediatly assumed it was a computer-only thing.

Anyways, here is the thing.. I dont want a monthly fee.. I belive that is a monthly fee. I just want to buy a card as I need it, or pay for minutes when i need it... ill look deeper into the vonage site though.

I assumed that was what you assumed. Like I said, if you don't talk $15/month it's not worth it. The calls to Canada would be free, but you have the monthly fee, so divide the fee by number of minutes you would talk (as long as you don't go over the limit on the $15 plan) and there's your minute rate. I don't talk much either, so it's much more expensive for me than just using a prepaid phone (no international calls for me either.)
