We will be expanding to more countries over the coming months. If you would like more information or want to suggest a country we should be adding next, please email us at customer.services@call2abroad.com

Auto top-up Optionally take advantage of auto topup and never run out of credit. We will automatically charge your credit card, debit card or PayPal account and top up your account when your balance runs low
Yes, it expires 3 months after you top up, but every time you top up, you extend your whole balance by a further 3 months. We will try to contact you by email or text message before your credit expires, so you have an opportunity to top up in time. However the best thing to do is to set up auto top-up, which will automatically top you up when your credit is running low or about to expire.

An access number is a telephone number you dial to connect to our services. You pay one flat rate to connect to our systems and once connected, you enter the international number you are calling (including the 00 and international code) followed by #. The call to the access number is charged to your phone bill as normal. You don't need an account with us.
For calls from the UK, you should use the access number 0333 232 2323. This should be part of bundled free minutes if you have inclusive calls to UK landlines on your mobile/landline plan.
For callers from all other countries, please see the local access number for your country listed on the rates page, which is also sent to you by SMS when you purchase.
