It can be difficult to stay in touch with loved ones who live in your town, much less those that live across the Atlantic in Africa. Africa is a diverse continent that is comprised of several different countries. These countries share more in common than just location. In the past, it was very difficult for people to call African countries without incurring an excessive phone bill or using complicated phone cards. Today, if you want to make an international call to someone in this region of the world, it doesn’t have to cost you an arm and a leg.
By now you must be tired of those conventional phone cards. Their deceptive practices and lack of convenience has probably made you hope for an alternative. These kinds of phone cards don’t really offer you much in terms of value. Their rates are extremely high and there are usually connection fees, deactivation fees and charges that you don’t readily anticipate. These charges are deducted from the value of the phone. So if you think that you paid for a fifteen minute card, you may only get to redeem eleven of those minutes.

There are other frustrating features of traditional phone cards. Using this kind of card almost ensures that your calling experience will be terrible. First you are required to dial up to forty digits just to reach your relative or business partner. Between the access number, the pin number and the desired number, you could end up tired before you even say hello. If you don’t get connected the first time, which is common with these cards, you have to start that process all over again. There can also be issues with call quality when using a regular phone card to call Africa. These cards rely on phone towers and infrastructure to provide you with good service.
