Calling To Puebla, Mexico

[TiRaMeELDeMBou 0]

hey guys i have been with my fiance for 2 years now and calling mexico is pretty expensive but ive been putting up with it. hopefully you guys can help me figure out whats the best way to call my fiance who lives in mexico, puebla.

ive had this home internet phone service named inphonex, they offer unlimited calling to mexico and USA for $55.15 a month with a incoming phone number, so thats not so bad but the service kinda sucks. also i constantly buy phone cards online because im almost never at home from callingcardplus.com i buy 2 cards called REAL BOSS and BINGO, those are the 2 best cards for the location im calling, in mexico. this is my fiances neighbors phone number just as a test number for anyone helping me out 011-52-275-43-28285 (dialing from USA) anybody have any ideas to cut cost down or better phone cards or really good quality home phone service with unlimited mexico??

2) we bought a calling card from costco to use from a cell. also 3 cents a minute.

If your fiancee has internet service and a computer at her house, with a microphone, you guys can talk all day long for free, using SKYPE to SKYPE. It is free to download and free to use. She just needs a microphone, internet, and computer.

If she doesn't have internet, you can call her landline using Skype, and it's actually only 2 cents a minute with Skype's subscription to Mexico. Here's some more info:

http://www.skype.com/allfeatures/subscriptions/mexico/

Unlimited Mexico

No long-term contract. No connection fees.

Unlimited calls to landlines* in Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey.

2¢ per minute to landlines in the rest of Mexico.

20¢ per minute to Mexico cell phones.

$5.95/month

If you talk for 1 hr per day, it would cost $41.95 for the month total (.02 x 60 x 30 + $5.95).

It would be free if she has internet, so you could just talk for free with Skype to Skype calls, or using Yahoo/AIM.

no, u call her from your computer, just get a headset and a mic, you can call to most mexico for about 0.05$ per min-to a landline-, it's pretty cheap... the sound quality is also very good

I linked the Skype Mexico Subscription above. It's 2c a minute if you're calling a landline from your computer, and are calling outside of DF, Guadalajara, and Monterrey (which you will, since she lives in Puebla) . If you don't have the Mexico Subscription, then you'll pay 10c per minute.

Yup. Your logs are only available for 6 months though, and everything older than 6 months is deleted. The easiest way to print them is, after signing up and everything, going to the Account section at skype.com and printing it off there. Otherwise you would have to do a screen shot of everything or save it as an Excel file (but if you just print it off the Account section, then the skype URL shows up at the bottom of the page).
