Yak4ever goes Offline, Free Long Distance to 30 Nations is No More; Where Else Can You Find Inexpensive Global Calling?

In May 2007, we posted about the introduction of a new service, Yak4ever (archived creen cap), that offered free long-distance calls (telephone to telephone) to 30 countries around the globe. In the past week, the service has shut down. It's founder and owner, Pat Phelan, explains here.

So, where else can you go for inexpensive international long distance using a regular phone (or mobile device) on one or both ends of the call.

+ JaJah and JaJah Mobile
If both parties are Jajah members, the call is free. Free registration.

+ SkypeOut and SkypeUnlimited, SkypePro

+ Gizmo Call Out

+ Bok

+ Truphone

+ fring

+ numbr
