Cheapest Way to Call Trinidad fro US?

[Andre]

i doh have no international long distance on mih house phone but need to make about 2 hours of calls to trinidad.

what is the cheapest way? calling cards? majicjack? this is just for the next week or so though.

[Bitter]

Skype or an equivalent is the cheapest option. Magic jack is a good option if the person in T&T have one, but if you going to pay for one and then still pay rates for calling, then get a calling card. I use http://1st-usa.com/ when I need a card, but the fam in T&T all have magic jack plus. no computer needed and you just call like a regular phone.

If yuh going tuh be calling ah cell phone, yuh could use an app like Viber which uses WiFi.

MagicJack also has an iPhone and Droid App...so if your peeps in T&T download the free 'MagicJack' App onto their smart-phone, they'll be able to call anyone in the US and Canada totally free.

Also as Tallman and another poster mentioned, 'Viber' and 'Skype' are great options...BOTH of which are also available on your smart-phones.

Calling cards are okay to use also, but 3 mentioned above work pretty great, especially when both parties have strong Wi-Fi signals.

'MagicJack' free smartphone App...Viber App...Skype App.

Does the person in T&T also have a US based number? (via MagicJack, or Vonage etc).

Also, which MagicJack did you get?  The actual device that plugs into your internet router?  Or the smartphone App?  Because you could've actually downloaded the MagicJack smartphone App for free, and use it for free...but the free option would only limit you to making calls, not receiving calls.
