SAve money on international call at work

Options
Hi

I am not sure how many members here got some friend and family aboard but i am one of them. Which my gf is living in japan for 6 months and i find out that the international phone bill is getting bigger, so i went to get some cheap phone card to call aboard.

The problems for phone card is most of it got the expiry date on it and if you buy a large amount say 20 pounds, you will have too much mins to call but sometime you think you can finished it but you have left over which you wasted.

The annoying thing is i don't have time to go to town to get phone card very often which make things a lot of difficult and when i am chating i don't get the time limited and always run short.

About 2 weeks ago I came across a service which they allow you to call international phone call with the cost of national. and i find it very useful , just call the national no 08707 944 568 and you can call anywhere aboard.


The best part of this is when you use this no at work, becuase it is a national call your boss will not know what no you are calling to and i can always use my lunch hour talking to my gf (becuase of time different) and save me a least 50 pounds per month.
(please I cannot garunteed you won't get fire if you boss find out )

BUT HAPPY SAVING !!

    You can call Japan much cheaper (from 1p/min) without any phone cards by using 0844 numbers: see CallChecker in the red bar above.

    If I were your boss, sooner or later I'd get curious who exactly is responcible for huge telephone bills resulting from expensive 0870 number. It is very easy to find out then the real nature of this number (just google for it).

    Just-Dial affiliate spam again?

    - earns 0.75p per minute, and should be on Referrer's Board

    The MSE Callchecker can suggest cheaper providers

    Not only spam, but why have no board guide reported it as advocating fraud?
