You may be aware of the many choices you have when buying a calling card. However, have you considered the truthfulness of the claims that some companies will make in order to get a competitive edge? Are you aware of the tricks that are played and the hidden charges that are made?

The minutes that a calling card will offer may look good but did you know that even if you were to make one continuous call, then most companies would steal between 10% and %20 of those minutes. They call this "fluctuation". Then there are also other charges to be taken into account; •connection 3p-5p •daily maintenance 5p-10p •rounding up to a whole minutes •second call rate increase •increasing the rate based on call duration •overcharging for calls to other destinations not specified

Amongst all of the special offers and discounts there are some winners and losers, but most often there are tricks we are unaware of which make us a losers without even realizing it.

The only genuinely truthful calling card that I am aware of is the Elephant cards by speaknspeak. It offers •True minutes as described •No connection charges •No daily maintenance charges •No hidden charges

The Elephent calling card is currently only available from www.speaknspeak.com
