Phone Cards are Hot
There are different kinds of phone cards that function in different ways. Phone cards have different uses for different companies. The way one company uses a phone card is not the same way in which another company uses a phone card. But basically, phone cards allow people to pre-pay phone calls, both domestic and international. The phone cards from different sources differ in how they are used.
Some people who want to use a cellular phone don’t want the monthly charges or the contract. A contract locks them into a service package with a certain number of minutes of usage and certain features that they don’t use. They have to pay for these minutes and features. One way in which people can avoid a service contract and monthly charges with a cellular phone is by buying a pre-paid cellular phone. Some pre-paid cellular phones only function with a phone card. They can purchase different quantities of minutes on the card. When the minutes run out, the cell phone stops working. If they want to keep using the pre-paid cellular phone, they have to purchase more minutes for the phone card. If they don’t want to keep on using the pre-paid cellular phone, they can just throw it out. The phone can’t be used for anything else.
Other companies offer pre-paid international calling service through phone cards. In this situation the caller must specify a list of numbers that the calls are authorized to be made from. This allows the user to make pre-paid international calls from any of the numbers specified on the list. If the number is not on the list, he can’t use the pre-paid minutes. This is one arrangement offered by one phone card. You can also purchase phone cards that allow you to make pre-paid domestic and international calls from any location. This is useful for people who travel a great deal. They call the number specified on the phone card, the system responds by telling them the balance in their account, then they give the number they want to call and the system makes the call. This allows them to avoid roaming charges on their cellular phone if they are out of their local coverage area.
There are a variety of phone cards that are offered for use in different situations. The way they are used depends on the service and package that the consumer has purchased.
