Why you should stop buying calling cards in the convenient stores and at the gas stations

November 3, 2011

A calling card or phone card is a small plastic card, sized and shaped like a credit card, used to pay for phone services. Sometimes it may not be physical, in that case customers recharge from company’s website. Calling Cards known as remote memory cards have a PIN associated with a specific land-line telephone account; calls using the card are billed to the associated account. It is only necessary to have the knowledge of the access telephone number to dial and the PIN for using calling card. Standard cards which can be purchased and used with or without having account facility. The card gives a fixed amount of credit to talk over phone and is discarded when it’s been used up. Rechargeable cards can be topped up. The system for payment and the way in which the card is used to place a telephone call vary from card to card. Phone cards cannot connect customers to a mobile telephone system. Customers still need to pay their mobile carrier for that. Once you know where you want to call, you can save money by dialing a phone card access number and using that service to connect you to the person you want to call. Prepaid mobile programs such as T-Mobile to Go, TracFone Nationwide, and AT&T Prepaid Phones are a separate subject than using a prepaid international phone card from a monthly billed service.

For calls within the USA, dial 1 + Area Code + Number. To dial numbers outside the USA, dial 011 + Country Code + City Code + Number. Some cards have Speed Dial available. You can program the phone numbers you plan to dial so all you have to do is press the speed dial number and the hash key (#). The most effective way to prevent dialing an international number directly from your mobile provider is to contact your provider and have them disable international calling. You’ll still be able to dial the access number for your phone card and dial your international number as you normally would with your calling card. To make international calls from USA, or to make an international call from any country for that matter, one needs to know the international calling prefix for the country from which he/she will be placing the call. The International call prefix is a unique code for each country allowing its inhabitants to make international calls. For example, the USA’s international calling prefix is ‘011’. Next you will need to know the country code for the country to which you will dial. Country codes can be in range of 1 to 3 digits. The country codes may vary for some countries depending on whether the call is made from a mobile phone or fixed phone. The next set of digits to be dialed is called the area code or city code. The area code or city code can be anywhere from 1 to 6 digits. Finally, you will need to dial the local phone number to complete your international phone call from the USA. If you choose not to disable international dialing with your mobile provider, please make sure you hear the following when using your phone card:

1. When you dial the access number, you should hear the prompt to enter your PIN.

2. After entering your PIN, you should hear the balance available on your phone card and will be prompted for the number you’d like to call. If you do not hear this, hang up, dial the access number again, and follow the prompts.

3. After entering the phone number you’d like to call, you should hear the number of minutes available for your call. I
