International Phone Card?

[swom]

Can anyone here tell me where I can purchase an international phone card to be used from Costa Rica? My niece is going there in a couple of weeks and needs one. I know this isn't a cruise question, but everyone here is so helpful, I would really appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks in advance!

Many of our local Mexican markets/Carnecerias here in California have International phone cards good for Costa Rica as well as other Latin countries. Hope this helps.:cool:

I have had good luck buying international phone cards from tobacco shops or news agents in the foreign country.

We bought ours from Costco.

I have seen them in Sams Club and Wal Mart.

I bought from Sam's a regular AT&T phone card and when we go out of the country, I call the customer svce # on the back of the card. Give them the name (s) of the country (ies) to which you are going and they give you the 800# or country codes to call the US.

 

I has worked everytime all over the islands, Central Am & Canada. The harder part is finding a phone that is not rigged to charge you their rates. Sometimes I would have to go pretty far intown or ask shopkeepers to find one.

 

Good luck, M.A.
