If you are planning your trip to Europe, you may need to place a few phone calls from your home in the United States first. This can happen if you are staying at a hostel or a small, independent hotel or inn. You may have a question or booking may be done only over the phone. If you are renting a vacation home, you almost always need to call the owner first.

International calls from the US can be expensive, but there is a new way that you can make your international calls from the US for free. It’s called FreePhone2Phone and here’s how it works.

You have to listen to a 12-second ad in order to make the free international phone call. After listening to the ad, you can make a 10-minute call to one of 55 supported countries. During the last half-minute of the call, a warning tone beeps every 5 seconds.

If you try to make more than one call a day to the same number, you are limited to 5-minute calls after the initial 10-minute call. However, you can make as many 10-minute calls as you want to different numbers.

Your international calls are limited to primarily landlines, as it is too expensive to call cell phones overseas.

FreePhone2Phone can be used with your home phone and your cell phone.
