Your left nut.

Payment for the second US mobile to UK mobile call can be difficult.

(unless you're Lance Armstrong, in which case payment for the first call is a real problem too)

be cheaper to get a calling card and call through that, though you'd be mad to do mobile to mobile...can't the person you want to talk to sit by a landline long enough?

I'm a Skype fan. If the person you're calling has Skype, it's free! You need a computer and a high speed connection. Go to www.skype.com .

If you both have high speed internet connections - use webcams with an instant messenger. Also free, and you get to see the other person as well as talk to them.

Of course, since we're talking mobile phones in this thread apparently, might not work for the OP.

I use Gorilla mobile. Their web address is

www.gorillamobile.com

You get the first 100 mins free and after that it's 5 cents a minute to the UK.

If you don't have to use a cell phone, Vonage rates are 1 cent per minute to Europe--saw it advertised this morning.

Vonage is free to the UK.

"Vonage offers Great International Rates as low as 1 cent per minute! Check out the chart below for examples of the savings you get with Vonage, or use the search tool to see additional low international rates. Plus with the Residential Premium Unlimited Plan you also get free calls to Europe - Italy, France, Spain, UK and Ireland. "

But quite expensive to call a mobile.
