**vioppyskype** · 08-12-2006, 10:19 PM

I am still considering moving to the DR in a few months and my family and friends are wondering what the best way to stay in touch with me is.

How much does is cost to call the US from the DR on a cell phone or home phone? And does anyone know any cheap or moderately priced calling cards my family and friends can use to call me when I live in the DR? Or calling plans from major telephone companies?

Anyone have an info on this topic??? Thanks....

Great News! I called to a VOIP company called sunrocket. (sunrocket.com) with this service you must have the internet in the DR (or where ever else you are in the world) to connect to to use the phone but......say for instance if you live in cleveland, ohio (area code 216) when you get the phone shipped to you in cleveland it is programmed with 216 for cleveland usage. if you take the phone with you to another country, when you hook it to the internet for voip the phone only knows it's programmed for 216 (local calls) so when you make a call to your home area it just another local call.
