International Calls Made Easier
If you are using a cellular phone, it is most likely that you are using its text messaging services more than its call capabilities. Well, at least that is what most Filipinos do.
However, when you use a regular phone and the phone does not have the capability to send a text message, then calling international requires a DDD (Direct Distance Dialing). But hey, that could cost a fortune if you are a frequent caller.
To cut cost on phone bills, a calling card that can be used to place calls to 153 countries might be a good alternative to DDD. In addition, prepaid phone cards sales are skyrocketing. Using prepaid phone cards wisely can help you control your phone bills. Prepaid phone cards are also very convenient. For consumers who do not want to switch their long distance carriers, stand-alone prepaid phone cards are the answer. You receive mobility (calling from any phone including cellular), independence from local carrier and anonymity. Prepaid phone cards are also extremely popular with college students, truck drivers, travelers, and international visitors. Often you can find the absolute LOWEST rate to a particular international country by using prepaid phone cards rather than direct dial 1+ service or 1010 dial.
This is true in my case since I call some relatives in the US and the cost of prepaid cards from PLDT is increasing. Sometimes I even ask my relatives to send me money just to cover my phone bills. Well, that’s economics.
