    To make an international call: 011 + country code + city code + local number.
    Please be aware that calls to mobile or wireless phones in many countries bill at a higher rate. If you look at the international chart and there is no special rate for mobile phones, then they will bill the same as a land line call.

  14. Does Caifornia Classic have monthly fees or a minimum number of minutes I have to use each month?

    There are absolutely NO monthly fees and NO mimimum usage.

  15. What are the billing increments?

    ALL domestic calls both in-state and state-to-state are billed in 6 second increments with only a 6 second minimum. This indicates a .01 minimum charge on any answered call billed at 4.9 cents. Since we divide up every minute into ten pieces or 6 second increments, you are only billed for the portion of the minute that you use. International calls have a 30 second minimum with 6 second billing thereafter.

    Note: This is PERFECT for businesses that make a lot of short calls or faxes.

  16. What are local toll calls?

    These are calls that can occur within your area code, but your local provider charges you by distance. For example, calls from 12-20 miles away would be billed at one rate and 21-30 at another, depending on time of day as well. We bill all the "local toll" calls the same as your
    in-state rate.
