If you make international calls from your U.S. cell phone you know how expensive this can be through some cellular providers. There are options out there for people to receive discounted rates for calling from a cell phone in the U.S. to other countries.

There are "stand alone" plans where you can register for a special international cell phone plan. With this type of plan you are not required to switch any of your carriers. When you need to make an international call, you dial a U.S. toll free access number and then are able to make your international call at a discounted rate. But keep in mind that you might still be using your cellular minutes, based on whatever plan you have.
