Can anyone recommend a web site for pre-paid telephone cards? I am calling from the continental United States to Manizales, Colombia. I have used zaptel.com and speedypin.com in the past, but haven’t quiet been satisfied with the quality I’m receiving.

PinPlan's customer service will explain all their plans in detail, they dont hide any fees or charges and they just added more minutes to my card, they sent an email and lowered the rates. It was a nice surprise. here's the link of what they sent:

I have been spending WAY TOO MUCH F'ING MONEY on these dirty phone cards, those stupid fees for everything drive me nuts (do I sound bitter?).. hopefully now I can see my money actually going to the freakin' phone call itself........ I'm gonna try pinplan first and see how that goes... seems interesting to me...... and God willing, soon, I won't have to deal with these stupid phone cards anymore, he'll be in my bed! LOL.... then all I have to worry about is him calling his family, which won't be three to four times a day like I call him!!! WOO HOO!!! Thanks again!!!!! Winners have simply formed the habit of doing things losers don't like to do....... 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

bamacellist says on Apr 29, 2007, 10:56: avoid these! I bought a Boss card from ez-pins.com which seems to be associated with usprepaid.com. The rates and fees advertised at ez-pins are apparently very incomplete and Boss tells you how much credit you have when you dial the access number and then tells you how many minutes you have after dialing the number of your party but when you call again you will have incredibly less remaining credit than you should. I have had NO luck getting truthful information from ez-pins/usprepaid regarding this and Boss supplies a customer service number that only provides automated services with no possibility of addressing any questions about their rates and fees.
