Taiwan calling cards
This page explains the cheapest ways to make phone calls to and from Taiwan.
If you simply want a cheap rate on a calling card to make calls to Taiwan, use
the calling card search box below.
(Check out the details for each of
the cards offered by Noblecom. Our recommendation is to buy the calling
cards that give you fewer minutes. This might not make sense initially, but you
may want to do this because the calling cards that give you less minutes will
round your call to the nearest minute or second. The calling cards with
more minutes will round your call to the nearest 2 minutes or nearest 3 minutes.
In our Noblecom usage experience, the calling cards that cost more per minute
actually end up giving you more time on the card, because of this per minute/per
second rounding.)
