How do you determine which pre-paid calling card is best for you?

The short answer is; the pre-paid calling card that gives you the most minutes of actual talk time to your destination. In reality the talk time is not easy to calculate because of the fees charged by the calling card company. Fees come in many forms and are called many things; you may see them labeled as maintenance fees, disconnect fees, billing block fees, taxes and connection fees just to name the more common ones. You really have to read the fine print to know what you getting.

Maintenance Fees

What is a maintenance fee? It is another means for the calling card company to make money off you. A maintenance fee will reduce the calling time on your card even when you are not using it. Does Overtime International charge a maintenance fee? No.

Disconnect Fees

What is a disconnect fee? It is a fee charged when you end your call; a fee to hang-up; that's just wrong. Why should anyone be charged to hang-up? Does Overtime International charge a disconnect fee? No.

Billing Block Fees

What are billing block fees? Billing blocks also know as rounding is the way the calling card company charge you for the time you were connected to your destination. For example let's say you were connected for 6 minutes and 30 seconds and the calling card company uses 3 minute rounding; you will be charged for 9 minutes. Does Overtime International round their calls? Yes, we use 2 minute rounding; so that same call will be charged as 8 minutes.

Taxes

Many calling card companies charge add on taxes in addition to their stated rates. Does Overtime International add any taxes to the stated rates? No; all the taxes are built into our rates already.

Connection Fees

A connection fee is charged by calling card companies to pay for internal expenses. Does Overtime International charge a connection fee? Yes, 25 cents but only when you actually connect to the phone number you called.
