Unlimited International Landline Calls

You know that International phone calls are expensive. That’s why you find making calls on the Internet so compelling. As long as you are making a computer to computer call, you don’t have to pay anything beyond your broadband charges. But what if you want to call from your regular phone line or from your cell phone? Is there any way to talk as much as you want for one low fee?

Check out unlimited international long distance calling now. Click for plans and availability.There is now. The service you want is IBNtel Unlimited Long Distance. It’s a new calling service that works with the phones you have. No need to have the computer turned on or be anywhere near it. You won’t be using your computer for this service. It’s an unlimited long distance telephone service that includes international destinations.

Even long distance calls in the USA are expensive if you simply use the default long distance service from your local phone company. That’s why many landline users have one service for local dial tone and another for long distance calls. Cellular plans pretty much cover all calls within the United States as part of the minutes plan. Just try and call across the border, however, and you’ll get a nasty surprise. Either your call won’t go through at all or you’ll get a big fat charge on your next phone bill.

This is why you need an add-on international calling service. If you call from the US to any other country and need to talk for long periods of time or just make a lot of calls, you’ll get nickeled and dimed to death by most long distance services and most prepaid calling cards. They’re just plain expensive when you don’t use them all at once and a nuisance to keep buying or refilling. Why deal with that hassle when you can just pay one low monthly fee and talk all you want for free after that?

Technically speaking, IBNtel Unlimited Long Distance service is what is called an international dial-around long distance service. What that means is that you “dial around” your current telephone services when you want to make those international calls. You won’t be switching you present local, long distance or cellular service providers. Those plans will still work the way they do now. You simply register the phone you’ll be using and dial a special local access number to get those free US long distance and international calls. Yes, you can register your cell phone can make unlimited international calls. You won’t get charged extra, but you’ll likely be using minutes on your cellular plan as with any other call.

With IBNtel’s unlimited LD service, you make unlimited calls to any landline or cellular phone in the USA, Canada, China, Hong Kong, Puerto Rico, Singapore or Thailand. For the remaining of the 60 countries on the list, you can make free calls to landline destinations only. Calls to cell phone or calls to countries not on the list have additional charges, although you may find them cheaper than what you are paying now.

How much does this unlimited long distance cost? It’s just $17.50 a month with a 1 year commitment or $19.50 a month with no annual contracts. If you are currently spending hundreds of dollars a month on international long distance, you should check this out at your earliest convenience. It’s just too good a deal to pass up.

Please note that this is a new service and has not rolled out everywhere just yet. To see if your local area qualifies, check for service availability now. If your location isn’t hooked up yet, try back in a few weeks, as new local access codes are in the process of being added.

Sell Your Free Cell Phone For Cash

You were smart about where you bought your new cell phone and got a state-of-the-art smartphone for free with your service order. You didn’t pay more for service because you know those plans are the same price no matter where you get them. It’s the price of the phone that varies from store to store.

Recycle your free smartphone for cash.Now your contract has expired and it’s a good time to upgrade to a newer model phone. Once again, you want to shop around and get the one you want free or at a deeply discounted price. But, what about that phone that just came off contract? What are you going to do with it?

Most people toss their old cell phones in a drawer, figuring they’re too good to throw in the trash and might be useful someday. We’ll at least they don’t go in the trash. There are materials inside those phones that become toxic when they decay in the environment. But once in the drawer, a cell phone rarely goes back into service. Hey, it was a free phone so who cares? It’s not worth anything, right?

Nothing could be further from the truth. Just because YOU didn’t pay for the phone doesn’t mean it has a lower value. That marvel of technology may have cost hundreds of dollars to manufacture. You took good care if it and everything works just as well as it did a couple of years ago when it was new. That gadget has residual value that you can extract, once again because you are smart.

Here’s the smart thing to do with a free phone that has just come off of contract. Move as fast as you can to sell your cellphone for cash online. Technology has a limited shelf life. The older it gets, the less it is worth. The very best you can do is sell your unwanted phone immediately after you are done using it. Pocket the cash and use it for whatever you want. After all, you’re getting your new phone free too.

It’s an easy process. All you have to do is look up the particular make and model phone you have, check a few boxes about the condition of the device and what accessories you still have, and request an offer. You’ll get an instant online offer for your phone. If you like what you see, then click through and request a postage paid shipping box so you can send it in at no cost to you. Once your phone has been checked out, you’ll get a check in the mail. Mmmm. Money in the mailbox for something you didn’t pay for. Does it get any sweeter that this?

What about new phones that never went into service? You got a holiday or birthday present from a well-meaning relative, but you have no use for this thing. You don’t want to pay for a contract to put it into service. What to do?

A simple “thank you” will suffice. Then, when you are sure they are not looking, check the value of your gift and send it in for cash. Since it is brand new, it will be worth more than one that’s been used for a year or two and is no longer the latest model. You could be looking at a hundred bucks or more in your pocket if you act quickly.

Here’s another little secret to getting money for stuff you don’t want. Gazelle also offers to buy electronic games, navigation devices, digital cameras, laptop computers and many other recent vintage technology gear. It’s a virtual gold mine right after the flurry of holiday gift giving has subsided. It’s also a way you can regularly get cash for stuff you are upgrading any time of year. Who knew that free electronic gadgets could be worth so much?
