The “Faves” Cell Phone Calling Card Secret

Most mobile/cellular companies now have plans called “Fab 5″ or “Fave 5″, etc… which allow plan subscribers to get free unlimited calling to the numbers on this list.  Mom, Dad, Sister, Boyfriend… Phonecard?

What happens when you try and add a prepaid calling card’s local access number to your “Fab 5″ list?

In theory…
1.  You will receive free unlimited airtime when using the registered calling card.
2.  Calling cards can be used to any phone number in the world at current calling card rate (which are usually lower than per-minute cellular rate).

Combine 1. and 2. and you receive unlimited cellular airtime to any number in the world at lower than market cellular rates.

As an example, AVEO calling card charges 1.9 cents/minute long distance within Canada.  Add AVEO’s local access number to your Fab 5 and receive unlimited cellular calling for 1.9 cents/minute.

Does it work?  Currently, it works in Canada and several creative individuals are using this strategy.  However, in London, England, where calling cards are very widely used, several cellular companies have began banning these numbers from “Fab 5″ plans.  We expect this technique to continue to work until cellular companies get wise to this application of their plan and prepaid phone cards.

Please check your cellular contract before registering a phone card’s access number with your Fab 5 plan.
