International Phone Cards

Hi gang,
back again, and I found accomodation but that´s a different story. Badly need to find out what teh best value for money international phone card is here. Phone rates are a rip off. Surely there´s a cheaper way. I want Spain to Australia by the way,
Thanks in advance,

Try Corte Ingles. If you go to the section where they sell cell phones and ask one of the sales people about buying a phonecard, they have a huge list of countries and rates, and can let you know which card will get the biggest bang for your buck.

I haven't had occasion to call Australia from Spain but I have called the U.S. and Ireland. I always go to a Tabacalera and buy a Tarjeta Telefonica, the kind with an I/C on the card itself. I found Spain to U.S. rates to be very cheap. The phones are at the blue Telefonica kiosks. As a matter of fact, a 3-minute call to the U.S. from Spain cost me less than a 3-minute call to a mobile in Spain. The cheapest Tarjeta Telefonica is 6-euros. I don't know what the next denomination is but you can add money to the card at a phone.

They have the same type system in Ireland but the Spain card doesn't work there & the Ireland card doesn't work in Spain.
