Prepaid calling cards usage may incurr several surcharges. Phone card companies usually apply surcharges for the following situations:
Calling from a payphone may induce a surcharge applied PER CALL on the phone card ranging between 25 cents and 99 cents according to different FCC regulations for different calling cards companies.
Using the calling card through a local access number in US will give you, for most phone cards companies, the rate advertised on the website whereas if using the toll free access number with your calling card may incurr a small surcharge PER MINUTE.
For prepaid international origination calling cards pay very close attention to the details on the websites as usually the surcharge per minute for calling to a toll free access number can get from 0 to 70 cents or higher. This is because the calling cards companies have to pay a lot more for establishing toll free access from those countries.
