sherry54:"话说LS的有替荣昌行卖广告的嫌疑 "==> no嫌疑, I was! I did and still do APPRECIATE the store exchanging to new cards for me. They didn't have to, it wasn't their responsibility.
papillon9:"现在大家用什么卡?"
1. the green $5 "Calling Card" @ http://www.************.ca/item.php?id=1107 - low per minute rate (~$0.01/min), but only 1 or 2 months valid, + there are deduction of ~$0.20 every 4 or 5 days.
2. Asia One @ http://www.************.ca/item.php?id=1106 - people say it's good, valid for 6 months, use 1-800#, extra $0.06 per minutes. I only called US, I don't find the calling quality as good, but better than the old SCC, may also better than the green Calling Card. Not sure, believe CS told me there's ~$0.90 if use pay phone.
I use prepaid phone cards on pay phones. Guess I'm getting older now, I'm starting to find both green Calling Card and Asia One not acceptable. I've started to switch to Pharmaprix + President Choice prepaid cards. Per minute rates are "high", about 4-5 cents, but there are promotions. I've bought $20 PC card few weeks ago and got a $10 card for free. Both are Bell line, extremely clear. Pharmaprix, I may have paid $10 for $15 before x'mas, not sure.
3. Pharmaprix prepaid- it only deduct 25 cents for pay phone use in Montreal (TILL NOW). However, when we make calls from US, there's additional charge of 10 cents per min.
4. PC prepaid - just tested, they really only charged 4 cents per minute, no additional charge for using 1-8##- from US. They were supposed to charge for pay phone usage. Just got a "long" call from Chicago airport for 50 seconds, only took off 4 cents. All the cheap phone cards would have deducted 2 min. instead of 1.
If anyone calling Europe/UK only, worth considering above. I'm switching to PC, may be supplement with Calling Card for rare time when I need to make tons of calls.
I don't know, but VOX are sold at many drug stores and gas stations, also claims to use Bell lines, check that out for yourself at vox.ca. |
