I call China a bunch during the month. I use a calling card-BigZoo. Q-Can I still use this service or some other calling card? That is through Vonage. |

Yes, just dial the access number as usual. |

Check out BigZoo calling card. I call China and this card/operation is the best I have ever seen. It is also very good here in the USA. Ability to set up easy codes for various people to call. |

Vonage has great international rates! Calling Beijing would just be 5 cents a minute. Other parts of China would just be like 13 cents a minute. so why bother with a calling card? |

For cell phones and NGN numbers in UK and W Europe I use 10-10-987 for 39 c connection fee plus 3 cents a minute but with Vonage I can not use 10-10-987. Any suggestions |

Many of those 10-10's are operated by your favorite long distance companies such as AT+T and MCI. They are simply an alternative to permanently switching your ld provider to make an ld call.
Hence, from a landline, dial : 10-10-987 then 0 You will get the operator for that long distance company. Ask them if you can possibly get a calling card.
I take it you've figured out the economics of the 39 cent connection fee? Which would cost you really 6 cents a minute for the first 13 minutes. I don't know how long you talk for but if you can't connect with a live person or the person you want to talk to asks if they can call you back, you might be paying more . But I don't know what those rates are with Vonage. |
10-10-987 is excellent for calling cellular phones in West Europe. For example to call UK cellular number in UK Vonage charges 23 cents/min and to Switzerland cel 34 cents/min. 10-10-987 is good for these kind of calls if the duration of call is not just one minute. |
