My Mondo - reasons to avoid prepaid international phone calling cards

My Mondo is one of the new generation of cheap international call products. When considering how to make cheap calls the only choice used to be prepaid calling cards. They were great in their day but now My Mondo offers a great alternative. News Of The World's Martin Lewis, the Money Saving Expert, says about instant dial services:

"Unless you have a home phone package that includes free calls to some international destinations they're unbeatable."

We agree and here's why you never need to use an international calling card again.

Pre-paid international phone cards can often have:

1. Long PIN numbers
2. Baffling extra charges. With My Mondo you just pay for the calls that you make
3. Connection charges. This is a favourite of phone calling cards. It's only possible to get the advertised minutes if you make a single long call
4. Surcharges
5. Daily maintenance charges
6. Set-up fees
7. Expiry times. Your money literally disappears
8. Slippage. Not having enough credit to pay for the final connection charge and losing the rest of the minutes.
9. Running out of prepay phone credit during a call
10. Billing by 55 second minutes. My Mondo will only charge you for the calls you make - by the second
11. Companies that you've never heard of selling you a card and disappearing, along with your credit
12. The cheapest, poorest quality lines and connections
13. You walking in the rain to your local newsagent who's going to recommend you the phone card that's going to make him the most money
