Calling Card Reviews and Buying Guide:

Phone cards, or calling cards, are a prepaid method of making a long distance (domestic or international) call. In using a calling card you save money on your long distance phone bill. There are no monthly bills, and no detailed statements. You simply pay for the calling time in advance and reduce the prepaid balance as you make calls. Calling cards are often cheaper than long distance providers, your local phone company, collect calls and operator assisted calls. Each card has an 800# printed on the back. It also has a "PIN" or account number on the back as well. Just dial the 800#, enter your "PIN" number, then you'll be prompted to enter the phone number that you're calling. Finding the best calling card for your needs is easy at Callingcards.com. Whether you are looking for a calling card that has the cheapest rates, the most minutes or no connection fees they have made it easy for you to find the card you are looking for.
