| International Calling Cards? Does anyone use them? Do they have good rates? Would it be better to have a land line with international calling? I'm so confused about this whole international calling. I want to call my BF who is in Bolivia but I want to get as much for my $. He called me last Monday, and we were really happy to finally speak. He spent what I thought was too much for a super short (less than 15 mins) conversation. I'm hope he gets internet soon, then we can skype.

| Can you get an International plan for your cell phones? I used to use a calling card for an old BF, but it was still in the U.S. I got them at Costco. I think it was 6 hrs for $20. I can't remember though.

| I don't think I can. I know my mom has an unlimited calling plan to Mexico, but I doubt it extends all the way down south of the equator. I'll check out Costco though.

| Have you taken a look at google voice? They may have very cheap rates. I'll help you research it in the morning. https://www.google.com/voice

| My mom and dad use the international calling cards all the time to call Italy..they are WAYYYY cheaper than a landline. My parents had the international plan and figured out it was cheaper to use the calling card. I think the rates on the calling card are anywhere from 2-4 cents a minute. And the minutes dont expire if you dont use them for a while.

It looks like there are several different rates for several locations in Bolivia. Take a look here International Calling Card Search from InternationalCallingCard.com If google is $.09 per minute (and if that's the cheapest we can find), i'm happy to help you get started with it. I use google voice daily for my business.

| That sounds expensive. You should use the home number. I think it's $.09 then? Still sounds like a lot but I don't see it cheaper anywhere else.
