    There are many to choose from, walmart has plenty of cheap rate cards. Most villas offer free calls so you may not need one.

    I'm not sure if it's the way it's worded Martin but it looks like UKman wants UK calling cards. We have the BT Int option at £5 a month for unlimited calls. Post office one seemsed fairly reasonable.
    We use calling cards ourselves when in Florida so there are no surprises when we get home and advise our guests to do the same as there have been cases where Guests have used "unlimited" calling plans and found either they or the homeowner has been penalised under the "fair usage" clause they all put in.

    whoops sorry you are correct. We use 1899.com which is cheap, lots of calls to the USA and our monthly bill is pennies.

    I got 1899.com from this forum ages ago and have never changed. Not sure what it is exactly, except that we get cheap calls It is easy to set up online.

    I use a similar one to Martin www.18185.co.uk

    You go to the site and registar your credit card. Whatever the bill comes to each month it just deducts from your card. Mine for last month with Hubby at our villa was £7.98.
    It is also much cheaper for mobile phone calls and a fixed charge for UK landline calls.

    We used 1899.com for ages during buying our villa etc.

    But we are on Talk Talk with the intl plan and so all calls to the USA are free.
