Cheap calls to abroad here....
Thought this might be of interest:
http://www.ibuyphonecard.com/
It allows for the purchase of international phone cards online. Best of all, it gives clear comparison between the various providers based on how many minutes you get for your $.
I've used it a couple of times and found it to be reliable.

The one I have allows calls for 0.9 cents. Calls are rounded to 3 mins, but given that my calls are usually much longer this isnt much of a problem.
You make your choice and you pay your money.

Rather annoying, to say the least. Recently, Onesuite changed the layout of their website and when I attempted to recharge my account online there was a technical hitch that prohibited me from recharging. Called CS, however they experienced the same problem and were unable to advise when the problem would be resolved. So, I was temporarily left with no (reasonably priced) International phone provider.
Did some research online and found Pingo (www.pingo.com) rates extremely favorable for my needs (ie yakking incessantly to my family and friends in the UK 
). Although there is a monthly account maintenance fee of $1 (same as BigZoo was) the rates to the UK are 3 cents/min and the clarity of the connection is much better for me than that provided by Onesuite. Pingo have the same PinSkip facility as Onesuite and although they do not yet offer SpeedDial, I am assured by their CS division this will be insitu in the near future. So, I've decided to maintain the Pingo account meantime and discontinue Onesuite's service.
