IMPORTANT: The majority of our competitors only
advertise their rates to make a call, BUT DO NOT make it clear that
your mobile phone service provider WILL CHARGE
YOU A CONNECTION FEE AND
A PER MINUTE CHARGE TO CALL THE LOCAL ACCESS NUMBER.
ie you
are being charged twice, once by the mobile provider and once by
the cheaper service provider. WE DON'T
CHARGE LIKE THIS, AND INSTEAD ONLY CHARGE YOU ONCE FOR THE CALL!
