Hi,
I am off to Hawaii in a few weeks & am looking for cheap ways of phoning the UK.
I will have my mobile - but that costs about £1 trillion a minute!!! so want something cheaper.
I will have access to a landline that does free calls to local & national US numbers.
Any ideas?
Thanks Mark

Will you have access to wifi?
If so, you could download the Mobile Voip app and join one of the voip companies. Some will give you free calls to the UK for 60 or 90 days when you add €10 to your account.
Alternatively you could get a phone card there.0 -

If you do join one of the VoIP companies that work with Mobile Voip (e.g. http://www.nonoh.net/ ) you can also use the landline to dial the local access number for the US (http://www.nonoh.net/geo ) which will allow you to make international calls from your VoIP account (first you will need to add the US landline number to your VoIP account).
Another similar option (especially if you only want to call a small number of UK numbers) if http://www.localphone.com/ - this will allow you to set up a list of US numbers, each of which forwards directly to a specified UK number.Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks
