How to avoid a huge phone bill.?
I have a boyfriend that ive been with for months. He was recently arrested for DUI. He got his passport and visa taken away. He is now living in Jalisco Mexico and I have been buying phone cards after phone cards to call him. But, my phone bill is still really high. I dont know what to do? Im not going to stop calling but I wish I knew why my phone bill is still so high after using those phone cards??? Please help. Maybe I have the wrong phone company, I have Tmobile. Is there another phone company thats better??

Answer

Maybe you should call from a landline instead of your cell phone. Also, you know how you have to call an number before dialing his number? Well, most cards should have a list on the back of possible numbers to call besides that number. Find one that has the same area code as the number you are calling from. That should be cheaper than dialing the number.brOr get Skype. Its a free download. Then all you have to do is buy a mic and you guys can talk unlimited for free over the internet.
