How to Make Free International Phone Calls Using Your Computer

Skype
1. Get a copy of Skype, an online phone-calling service, for your computer. You can find a direct link in the Resources section below.
2. When the program is downloaded, start looking for your international friends, colleagues, family, or whomever it is you need to call (they must have Skype on their computer as well, for this to be free). Add the names of the people you want to communicate with to your contact list.
3. Connect your microphone headset to your computer and load Skype. Find the username of the party you want to call under the 'Contacts' list and see if he is online. You should see a green icon and a red icon; press the green one to initiate your call and the red one to end it.
Ring Plus
4. Replace your current phone service with Lingo VoIP phone service (see link below), where you can make unlimited local and long-distance calls in the United States for a low flat rate using your computer and a high-speed connection.
5. Go to the RingPlus website (link below) and sign up for an account.
6. Find the access number that is closest to your current location and call in using your Lingo computer phone service. You will be asked to enter your RingPlus account number and PIN, which you should have gotten when you signed up.
7. Enter the international phone number (don't forget to press 9, plus the country code first). While you are waiting for the call to be connected, you will have to listen to advertisements, but the call itself is free.
