what free minutes are they? I think they are talking about minutes included in contracts, or did you use add-on call packages?
Whilst YCW is useful for calling foreign mobiles, there are cheaper ways to reach landlines from payg
an Orange Call Abroad has 5 pence a minute calls to landlines in USA, from where you could use a callthrough provider to about 50 countries' landlines including UK
O2, T-mobile and Mobile World also have some int'l call rate options in the same area
For calling European mobiles from UK payg, I'd suggest use Virgin and 0871 callthrough numbers at 15 pence a minute, or try T-mobile and 07744 numbers at maybe 12 pence (this needs checking, but 07744 is incl on T-mob contracts)
