... in response to Phone Card Questions, posted by Howard on Feb 10, 2003Hey H,
Don't they have Filipino stores in OH-10?
Instead of buying on the Net, I would first look around his local area to see what's available in the stores. That's usually where you find the best deals. For example, we've been using Barkada (Local Access) and with the local discount it's running $.07/min to landlines and under .12 to a cell. Lucky Sea has been reliable over the years also.
The other plan is to purchase different cards in small denominations ($5) and try them out, keeping track of actual minutes available and connection reliability, until you find a good one.
If you need evidence for a visa petition, look for one that offers a printed statement or occasionally use one of those 1010-xxx access numbers.
