Cheapest way to call Canada
Dan--
I've been having a hell of a time when trying to move posts.... the request
is submitted to the FT server ok, but then it just hangs up... and
eventually times out waiting for the request. Then the link stays there,
and when clicked on people get the page can't be found error.

It would be a tremendous help when a post is moved if the data could actually be moved too.

Not sure if this is the right place for this...does anyone know a really cheap calling plan to Canada, either via phone cards, MCI, Sprint, AT&T, etc. ? Thanks.

Onesuite, over at www.onesuite.com, is 5.5 cents per minute, one minute billing. Net2Phone is 3.9 cents per minute with a local access number, not sure what it would be if you had to use the 800 numbers.

You can bid for the price you want to pay to call Canada. I have purchased a package of 500 minutes for $20.00. This comes out to be $.04 per minute with no monthly service fee.
You have three months to use the minutes. If you are not going to use that much, then you might want to bid for packages with fewer minutes.
Of course, the higher the number of minutes, the more likely that your low bid price will be accepted.
My recommendation is don't pay for anything more than 4.8 cents a minute to anywhere in Canada. I have never paid more than that.
