I have a good friend down in Florida that I'd like to talk to but I don't know if It'd cost anything to use my Dad's cell phone. I have NO clue what cell phone plan he uses and I don't know if I want to risk it because I don't want to see Dad's reaction when he gets that bill and It's jacked up majorly, he'll look straight at me. He doesn't even know I have this friend down in Florida so that'd make it worse. I really want to talk to him though.
All cell phones are crazy long distance wise, mine's like 50 cents a minute and I talk long Unless it's covered by your plan.
I use my house phone to call long distance, we have a plan.
I phoned Ken the other day and it was horrible to find that the amount of credit I had lasted such a short time. Whereas if I had called one of my mates I could have talked for ages!
I can call anywhere in the US and Canada on my cell and it uses the same amount of minutes as it would for me to call my friend down the street.
I'm trying to get my mom to put international calls on my plan...$4 a month and 3 cents a minute = waaaaaay better than $1.50 a minute.
Either ask your dad or go buy a phone card. I've discovered that calls made with a card don't come up on the bill if you use your home phone (landline, not cell).
Oh lord, but he'd know when he saw that "Total" sign because nobody uses the phone because I'm always on the internet, lol. He'd automatically look at me and say "Why the f*** is the bill so high?"

I've been dreaming
Of the things I've learnt
About a boy who's bleeding
celebrate to elevate
The joy is not the same without the pain
Oooh
Ipso facto
Using up your oxygen
You know I'm shallow
Calling out for extra help
You've got to let me in
Or let me out
Oooh something to talk about
Oooh something to talk about
Oooh Oooh Oooh
I've been dreaming
Of the things I learnt
About a boy who's leaving
Nothing else to chance again
You've got to let me in
Or let me out
Oooh something to talk about
Yeah something to talk about
Oooh Oooh Oooh
Exactly, the landline idea is the best with a phone card, it's used like cell credit this way and doesn't show up.
And I may be exaggerating about the 50 cents, but it is long distance me thinks, it doesn't cost minutes off my plan though, whole other charge on top of my monthly.
Like even texts are 5 cents more expensive internationally than just in Canada.
You didn't read what I said about phone cards, did you.
Buy a phone card...they cost like $10. Use that to make your call. The call uses up the time on the card, thus it's not charged to your phone bill, it won't come up, and the total won't be any different then it normally is. You paid for the calls already when you bought the card.
Well, it depends on the type of card you get. They sell ones that are good for a certain number of minutes, and then ones where it costs a few cents per minute (depending on where you call) and is good for a certain amount of money. The one I had was like 75 cents to connect and then was 2 or 3 cents a minute, and this was using it to call England.
