I read in a newspaper. One called 1cellnet allow 7c per min to some intenational countries and within NZ. Has a 0800 number and is based in ILAM, Christchurch.

I have tried one in the past, US Callback Service based in Auckland, Wharaporoa (mind my spelling). Quality was not as good, bit of a hassle having to call a intl number then they call u back and u use that to dial the number and get a connection. But this 7c thing (peak or off peak)does seem attractive. I could use a cellphone for the first time how it should be used. It does have a $20USD connection fee thou..

Or are there other schemes u have tried?

Regards.

I was on a offpeak talk 70 contract and the peak rates are more than the prepay's 89c ... $1.40 was it? I have since gone to prepay now .. The business 50 plan works out to be no better than prepay unless u take adv of their per min rate afterwards .. And if u use less than the 50mins it works out less than the prepay option.
