Telephony
Telephone calling cards
Calling India by phone is difficult at best. The
lines are frequently clogged with callers so calls don't get through.
Once connected the quality of service is poor. There are often
delays in the conversation. Getting cut off is common. For
this, the cost of calling India is higher than for almost any other
country. My experience is that calling cards help reduce the cost.
I have used the services below and I am generally satisfied with them.
-
AT&T
International. Using cards purchased at Sam's Clubs I have had
good success in getting through to India and the cost is competitive.
Bear in mind that a 1,000 minute card designed for calling in the U.S.
will not provide you with same amount of time for calls to India.
-
Devicomm.
Low rates.
Tourism

Art
