hello! i would just like to know if anyone here on visajourney has ever used phone cards like the pldt budget cards or phone cards in the US as proof of relationship? my fiance and i call each other on the phone using the phone cards since it is more economical. making long-distance calls is so expensive. my fiance and i communicate through snail mail, cards, and phone calls. he doesnt know how to use the internet nor does he have a cellphone. do you think the consul would accept phone cards as proof of our relationship? hope i can get your opinon on this matter guys. thanks!

Unless you have receipts for the phone cards in your name they don't hold much weight as people can get them from anywhere and also they don't show who you called.

Best to open a international phone account and make short calls on it for the record and use the cards for long conversations.

Let me BUMP your question...

Since we kinda have the same situation.. But I am on IR-1 Visa though.

My wife is not good with computers, We talk on the phone alot but using phone cards, I duplicated my Banking card to send to her so I don't have to remit money and pay remittance fee she can just take money from my card whenever she needs em.

How should we do on this?

This is all we have for our proof when she goes on her interview

*Well she has a Bank Account that's on her marriage Name which is my last name.

*We bought a motor bike and we have the loan on Joint me and her.

*Pictures of us with our daughter

*Greeting Cards, letters..

*Our Daughter's US Passport, and Consular Birth Certificate.

Pretty "heavy evidence"!

Get a life insurance policy for them. You can always cancel it later.

What is an international phone account? who will open, my fiance in the US or me in the Philippines?

I used this phone service. http://www.talkloop.com/ it's a relatively inexpensive service, but as I recall the service hasn't that great. I used it because I could print out a call log of my phone calls to my wife. the interviewer at the Embassy seemed impressed by the several pages of almost daily phone calls.

Yeah I still recommend OWTEL even if I'm not with them no more..

The reason for my cancellation was at one time it was late @ night and I needed to call my wife but I had reach my max usage. I wanted to pay it off, but they told me I can't use it till tomorrow morning which made me upset and canceled my service. I know it was foolish of me, but I was desperate to get in touch with my wife that time..

What's good about their service is you can put limitation on your max usage. So you don't go haywire using their service.

Plus you can add to use your mobile phone to call Philippines.

True! I had that also and it was a good plan. Call anywhere in the US anytime for the monthly service fee. I doubt very much if they still have it at the price I had then.
