Calling Abroad with DialToSave International Calls
When you make calls with DialToSave, you connect to our phone systems using your own mobile or landline provider. When you dial the full international number we use discount lines to connect to local networks at the destination. We can enable you to phone France for less by bypassing more expensive providers such as BT when connecting your calls and instead using a combination of cheap internet and telephone services.
DialToSave offers two of its own services that provide cheap calls to France. The first is CreditTalk whereby you purchase a £5 credit which is sent to your mobile phone as a text message with a pin number. You can purchase the topup for making calls either by texting dts to 80556 or using the Paypal link above. Once you have the credit, you then call the local rate access number 020 8497 8844 and if prompted, enter the pin number, followed by the number that you are calling including 00 and the country code.
The other service is InstantTalk where you do not need to pre purchase any credit. However, we only know the prices for calling France from a landline using InstantTalk, not from a mobile. You simply dial the access number and wait for the prompts before dialing the phone number, which to a landline in France is 0844 862 0252 and to a mobile is 0871 518 0252, almost always cheaper than making calls with BT.
Flexibility of our Service
One of the best things about our cheap service is that you can use them any day of the week, day or night to phone France. You can make long or short calls, and the per minute rates is equally as cheap. Connect with your friends and family in France more often without the worry of huge bills. Unlike some other cheap providers, making calls with DialToSave doesn't require advance monthly subscription fees.
