FooCall allows users to save up to 98% on their international calls. It’s really easy to use, free to sign-up and we even give new customers some free credit to get them started and try the service out.

How does FooCall save me money on my international calls?
FooCall works by calling a local number for your international destination. You pay your mobile operator (in this case Verizon) for the local call but if you have inclusive minutes this call is free. FooCall then charges you an amazingly cheap rate for the international part of your call, which is deducted from your prepaid FooCall account credit. Simple and super cheap.

What’s great about FooCall is that you’re not making a call over your data channel, like you do with other services. This means that call quality is great and what’s more, you are truly mobile – no need to stay in your WiFi hotspot or worry about the quality of your data connection.

So head on over to the iTunes App Store now and download the free FooCall app and start benefiting from cheap international calls on your Verizon iPhone.
