This is the MCI card I warned against. Rude announcements and $0.35 charge for each call from a pay phone. No ## to make another call, have to dial and pay again.

about 3 cents a minutes $19.95. Any payphone surcharge (usually about 75
cents) is subtracted from the minutes you have on the card. I used one when
I traveled a lot last year. You can recharge teh card with a credit card at
the same rate. The only drawback it it is a lot of numbers to punch in and
hard to see in the dim light of a nighttime phone booth.
