Free International Calls

With Future Phone, you can make international phone calls for free (or the cost of a call to Iowa). You simply:

Dial a gateway access number (either 712-858-8883 or 712-945-1111).
When the gateway answers, enter 011 then the country code and number you want to reach.
Wait a few moments for your call to ring through and then enjoy your free call.

I've added Future Phone as a contact on my mobile phone.
