Universal calling plans allow to ring a phone anywhere with a calling card dialing a predetermined number (many times Toll-Free).

Prepaid phonecards and every month billed phone cards often offer really lower long distance rates (2 to 10 times) than the “traditional” calling services such as coin (landline), cellular (wireless) and collect calling. Needless to say prepaid calling card calling rates stay constant no matter what time or day the call has been placed.
Prepaid cards have superseded coin pay phones and co-exist with VoIP. Why should one order?
