I get several emails/day asking me how dial around plans work, so I have set up this page to explain the details.  The links for cards spread throughout this page will get you cheaper calling than simply calling from your phone.  The dial around plans will also get you cheaper calling, especially if you find the best one for the country you want to call!  The best calling cards are available through the search box above.


(As a side note, after you sign up for an inexpensive dial around plan, International Calling card advice is found throughout the calling advice pages.  One of the best international calling cards is found by using the International calling card search, highlighted in the teal/green below.)
 

Is a dial around plan cheaper than using my long distance service / calling card / VOIP ???

The answer is...it depends.

Use this page to learn how dial around plans work.  It will save you lots of money in the long run!

Originally, the only dial around plan that I knew of for calling Europe or internationally was 1016868.  1016868 dial around plan offers 9 cents/minute calling to some countries, and some more expensive calling to others.  If you want to know the cost for 1016868 calls to various countries, the web site for the company which handles 1016868 is http://www.pt-1.com/

However, because of my involvement with international travel and web sites I've built, I've found many other dial around plans.  I have listed the prices for a few countries alongside of the links on this site, but you can go to any of these sites, do a country search, and find out which one offers the cheapest rate for the country you want to call.  Your best bet, however, is to use the calculator to find the best rates.  If you spend a few minutes doing this, for most countries you will find a very cheap rate using one of these dial around services.
