I ran across something this morning that’s definitely going to be of value. Thought it would be to others, too, so I’m posting it here.
A company called Phone Cards Avenue bills itself as offering cheap India Phone Cards. They also offer cards to about a gazillion other countries. When you access their site, click the drop-down country list to see all that they offer.
The best thing about them is that when you place the order online, you get immediate delivery online too – no waiting! I was also surprised to see that they are extremely inexpensive. For example, you can buy a card that lets you call Mozambique for just 8.9 cents a minute! (I promise you, your local phone company won’t be that cheap!). Rates depend, of course, on where you are and where the person you’re calling is, and also on whether a cell phone is used (rates are significantly higher when using a cell).
Being the way that I am (heheh), I immediately saw applications. Of course people can call home for the holidays, or just to check in with family or friends. But using these cards, missionaries can keep in touch with home very inexpensively. PCA also sells cards that allow people in other countries to call the US, and the rates are quite good. They also offer in-country cards, even in the US, so if you travel and don’t want to use a cell phone, these cards offer a great way to call home!
When you place an order, be sure to check into the company’s 3% cash back rebate program on all the calling card and phone card purchases you make with them!
