Before I was using traditional calling card, that you have to use through your phone. But now a days I am using Voip services. They are little cheap than those traditional calling card and you can use it from your computer. I think this is more convinient. Specially I use VoipCheap. What do you people use to make international call?

I'm afraid I just use a land line. Since we are rural and fairly isolated we are on dialup.( not funny) But the phone company gives us 4000 anytime long distance minutes for being dialup customers at a cost of $19.15. So that is what I use.

4000 anytime minutes for $19.15 is not a bad deal.

phone - phone calls - ip phone
Yes VOIP is much cheaper and the quality of voice is at many times even better than the regular landline .. so far I used Yahoo for PC to landline but usually I use Skype for PC to PC most of the time.

I don't usually need to make long distance calls..and I use only skype to call, because I think it's the cheapest service on the net. I like very much the quality of voice in skype voip software!

I still use a very cheap telephone discount service .. I pay just 1p per minute to ring Australia from the UK ... and I can sit in the comfort of my armchair .. not be stuck in front of my computer when I make my calls ... I'm quite happy to be paying 1p per minute .. and once I change over ISP I shall get FREE international calls ..

I do not make international calls but I use onesuite for all my long distance calls and they do offer international calls at the cheapest rate. If you are interested, email me and if you sign up, we both get 20 minutes for free. There is no sign up fee or any other kind of fee. you pay in advance so you never get a bill for your calls. It is great. Both my daughters use it also.

We are using "Onesuite.com" to call the Philippines. The rate is very reasonable. It is $.013 per minute (landline) and $.19 per minute (mobile). We have so many cousins and relatives in Canada so we got Vonage. The call is free to Canada and Puerto Rico. Can't beat that!

I had a plan with my long distance carrier, excel. they charged me .05 a minute which I thought was really good. I talk to my son a lot who is in Germany. Then he discovered Skype, which is free and very good! We were trying to talk over msn but it wasn't real clear at times. Skype is phone quality and as long as the other person has it installed on their pc you can talk pc to pc. For a small fee you call from pc to their phone. It is really a great system and I love the free part. :)

my mom use a phone card company where they program the minutes into the cell phone and you just dial the number, and we been getting 1800 for 20 bucks, it is not bad a deal at all, it took her over 6 months to just use all of the minutes, and she call people she know on it all the time, so i guess it is pretty good deal, for her atleast, and me being dumb one time when she went on vacation i forgot to dial that speical number and ring up my cell phone bill at like 400 bucks, 400 bucks i could of buy like that phone card service 20 time and i could have about 36,000 minutes, oh well i had to pay for it of course
