I am going to go a little off topic from iPhone with this post and discuss some basic ways of saving money on calls. In particular international calls. I am sure that my readers are aware of most of the ways to save money on calling but have you considered something as simple as calling cards? I know I personally overlooked them when I used to make a lot of calls to the United States from here in the UK.

There are a number of low rates calling cards out there to choose from, all of them seem to be tailored to the specific country you want to dial or from the specific country you’re dialing from, such as the US - but, there are a number of cards on the market that use plans which allow you to call anyone, anytime and from anywhere in the world (within reason).

One company I have been hearing a lot about is banana call calling cards. These guys offer rechargeable phone cards so you don’t need to keep purchasing new cards and remember new pin codes etc. They also offer pinless dialing so you don’t need to remember any pins whatsoever!

If you need to make a lot of international calls, I suggest you give them a try.
