The short answer is, "Yes, you can." But do so wisely. In the United States, cellelar phone companies usually provide bulk or unlimited weekends and nights long distance free minutes. If you have such a celluar phone plan, you can take advantage of it to use your mobile phone to call our phone card local access numbers that are not in your local area.

But before you make calls to our local access numbers, make sure that calling these numbers invites no addtional fees or charges. Rember that ecallChina take no responsibilities for any toll charges you may incur while using local acess numbers.
