Overseas phone calls (which network is best value??)

Kenny2007

Hi,

I have tried reading a lot of the posts, and also realized prepaid phone calls are not cheap, however I cannot escape needing to directly call overseas time to time, and wondering if anyone has input whom is the best value provider for IDD phone calls from Bali??

I am unable to get much luck with iPad/android phone apps, as my internet isn't so speedy, I have tried a few carriers, but friends have informed, the Internet in the area I reside is as good as it gets, so for the emergency or necessary immediate calls, I am hoping someone knows of a more efficient means of IDD calling.

Singapore and Australia are the two most dialed countries. Other Asian countries are periodical, such as Vietnam.

I would be grateful for any input anyone can offer.

Thank you.

Try network 3 or tri as they have discounted calls to most countries. I use them to call the UK and it costs me next to nothing.

Thank you Lukereg,

Will look into it, I actually swapt back to 3 for Internet as it was far cheaper and almost same as others (speed wise) in my area, so I can easily get a sim for calling and see how I go.

Will check it out.

Appreciate the response.

Cheers
