Review :
Please note this is written from the view point of the person receiving the call.
Country called: New Caledonia
Fairly cheap rate, but I am not getting the mileage as specified in the price. The card is $10, and the rate is 12.5c/min. this means I should be getting around 80 mins, but it ends up being around half that.
Watch out for the '3 minute increments' limitation. If you make lots of short calls you will use up your credit very quickly.
One very annoying issue that I have is that the person in Australia stops hearing me, although I can still hear them. This happens midway through our call, and has happened more than a few times. They have to hang up, and call again. Again, this eats up the credit due to the 3 minute increments.
Also complete dropouts can occur, although this is rarer.
Even with the above issues, this is still the cheapest way for ME to keep in contact.
