JUST WHAT IS
INTERNATIONAL CALLBACK?
International
callback is a cost-effective method to lower your international
calling costs by bypassing the local dial tone of an foreign (to
US) country and accessing dial tone directly from the US, you
will make your calls on domestic US lines by accessing low cost
US dial tone from foreign countries.
International callback provides international telephone service at a discount of up to 50%, or more, in comparison to the rates of hotels, local PTT's, and U.S. calling card services.

HOW INTERNATIONAL
CALLBACK WORKS.
Dial
a US number from direct from any overseas number. Hang up immediately
after the first ring. Since you do not connect, there
are no connection fees. The US number has caller
ID and looks in the database to see if you are calling
from an approved (registered) number. Wait a
moment for the computer to call you back, usually
10-60 seconds. (that is why it is called
callback!) Enter your PIN code then call
anywhere in the world.
Callback offers the capability to call anywhere in the world to anywhere in the world, using domestic dial tone. The rates vary depending on which country you are calling from and to which country your are calling to. You can call France from Australia; you can England from Canada; you can call from a payphone in the US to your next appointment 5 miles away; or you can call from Hong Kong to Hong Kong using US dial tone.
WHY ARE
INTERNATIONAL CALLS SO EXPENSIVE?
The reason international
calls are so expensive is that many of the countries you are calling are monopolies. The
government makes a few cents, (well, more
than few cents) on each call coming in or
leaving the country.
Here is a tip, use international callback with your cell phone or PCS, whether overseas or domestic.
