International call rates - where to find?

[gamb00ler]

I need to call FBU Manila to see if I can actually get a timely answer.  I've already sent them a message via their website.  That website warns that it may take up to 15 business days to receive a response.  My experience with Manila tells me that their first couple of answers will not be germane and accurate.  A 3 week turnaround time seems excessive.

 

What is the best long distance prefix to use to call Manila?  Where are the rates for each prefix given?

If you need international calls more frequently try Skype.

I tried signing up for Skype but the website keeps timing out.  It looks like Skype to phone requires a subscription.  Hopefully I won't need to call FBU Manila so frequently.  I'll use Google Voice for now at 11 cents/minute.

 

Same <deleted>, different day.  FBU Manila, only has 6 hours/week that they will accept calls.  But..... they didn't answer.

It doesn't need a subscription, you can just a add credit  (just like pre-paid) I am using it but I am (personally) a bit disappointed in the quality so whenever I am calling abroad I use my Mobile, maybe a bit more expensive but works
