What's the catch with Futurephone?
by Michael Gartenberg, October 10, 2006, 10:15 AM

Have you tried this yet? According to the Futurephone site you can make free calls overseas for at least the next three years, no skype or other PC based software needed. All you need to do is call an access # at 712-858-8883 (somewhere in Iowa it seems). I tried it, it works. If there's a catch here, I can't find it.




Free Overseas Phone Calls
by David Pogue NY Times, October 9, 2006, 11:48 am

I had a great weekend. At a banquet/awards ceremony in Washington, D.C., my blogs and videos won the Online Commentary (Large Institution) award from the Online News Association. Thanks, dudes!

So I'm feeling generous. How would you like to make all the overseas phone calls you want for free?

And not using Skype or some other sit-at-your-computer geekiness, either. I'm talking about picking up your phone and dialing an international phone number for free.

Incredibly, that's exactly what a company called Futurephone is offering. There's no contract, fees, taxes, signup, registration or calling cards; you don't even give them your name or e-mail address. You just pick up the phone-home phone, office phone, cellphone-and make a free call to Argentina, Australia, China, England, France, Iceland, Israel, Mexico, Venezuela or any of 40 other countries.

The possible catch: you reach Futurephone's international dial tone by calling a number in Iowa, which is a domestic call that you have to pay for.

Of course, for a lot of people, that's still free. Use your cellphone on a night or weekend, for example. Or sign up for a flat-rate unlimited calling plan at home. Or see if your office has an unlimited long-distance plan.

So here's how it works: Call 712-858-8883.
