Calling US from Austria - cheapest prepaid SIM rates?
 

I arrived in Vienna yesterday. Looking to buy low cost prepaid SIM to call U.S. using my unlocked quad GSM phone. Post office has A1 Sim but US calls are 60cents/minute. Grocery store sells multiple pre-paid (including BOB), but I don't know the rates to call US. I read that EETY is cheapest, but not sure where to buy it (not sold at Vienna Post office or Grocery store).




Any help appreciated.

There are more than 200 dealers listed for Vienna: eety.at

cheap worldwide calls
 

You could buy a Prepaid SIM from Telering or one from Hofer (=Supermarket Discounter, austrian version of ALDI) which are 7 ct/min to austrian landline and all other austrian networks.

Then use DialNow | Cheap International Calls

The SIM will bring you for 7 ct/min to Vienna landline, Dialnow will connect you from Vienna to i.e. USA for another 0.5 ct/min.


Dialnow is a Betamax brand and can be used worldwide. The only important thing is a cheap access to the landline of the country in which you are.

You can save your phone numbers complete in your phone memory, separated by a p (pause) and dial directly from the memory, or you can send the destination no. as a DTMF also.

In 2008 i bought the sim card online.
Was shipped in few days.
