Contact your land-line +/or cell phone service provider%26#39;s customer service department(s). Request to speak with a customer service representative (CSR) who is knowledge-able about obtaining international capabilities with the phone you intend to use on a regular or frequent basis to make international calls.
Once you are connected with that CSR, informed them, specifically, of which foreign countries (including Canada %26 Mexico should they be on your list) you intend to be calling. Beware, the more countries, more of the cost.
Phone companies usually offer "International Package Deals". Depending which "package" you decide to sign-up for; there%26#39;s a possibility of various discounted rates. Perhaps, even a "Free Call" permitted? But at a specified time and for a specified length of "talk time" when making the call.
Just be certain to get everything in writing first, before placing your first phone call! I had a so called, "Package Deal" with A.T. %26 T. in order to make calls to Dublin, Ireland. My calls were generally placed between 12 Midnight and by 8:00 am. As it turned out, I was getting ripped off by A.T. %26 T.! What I had been initially told by the International CSR compared what my overseas billing amounted to, it was a disaster!
I attempted, on two separate occasions, to contact someone on their cell phone, a weekend apart. Neither cell phone call could be connected. Yet, I was billed $7.85 for both calls! Go figure?
