Times are getting better. Not that we ever doubted it, but every once in a while it is good to remind ourselves that we don't have to pay things like international phone calls at all anymore. Sure, we have to know how to use Skype, but it is worth it. If you have a basic mobile phone or you are calling from a phone booth, you have to know a few tricks if you want to make free calls. Here is one; Free411 directory service that also lets you make free interational phone calls.
Free411 service is for you if you happen to be in the United States, because you have to dial 1-800-3733-411 (and pay for the call to the service) to get the free service. Here's how it works. If you want directory assistance, you dial the number, listen to the ad (yes, wihtout skipping it), clearly state the listing you are looking for, and you'll get the answer instantly on the phone or as a text message.
Now, Free411 has extended its service to free phone calls as well. You dial the same number, but instead of asking for your friend's phone number, you say "free call". Then, you have to listen to a short ad, and then you can make your free international call. Free411 allows five minutes for free calls. Many countries are included as free destinations, but may want to check out yours at the service web site.
