When you open up an account with callbackworld (www.callbackworld.com), they give you up to 3 triggering numbers in the United States for callbacks in case you have more than 1 mobile phone or want to use callbacks to get cheaper long distance orinternational service on your own landline, and a pin2dest which you can key to any phone number you want.

It should be noted the pin2dest is a US toll free number which most carrier do not charge extra to call and rates to the USA are usually very low on many ld cards throughout the world, when it is answered the caller is prompted to enter the pin and the call goes to your designated number. All this can be set via the website when you open up an account.

At present, there is no termination fee for calls on callbackworld to Liechtenstein mobiles so the person whose account is being used would be charged the rate of 14? US billed in 6 second increments and the person making the call pays for a call from wherever to a US toll free number (usually the same as just to the US)...has been very very reliable recently after a bunch of problems last summer.

The only concern many of us have is the 14? rate is much lower than most rates for US to Liechtenstein (AT&T ld service is lower, 10?/minute on a special $1/month plan but this would only be good for those US folks using AT&T ld as their landline ld carrier) and cbw has a competitor called enlinea which until January of this year was only charging 12?/minute for calls US to Liechtenstein and used to provide a US toll free without a pin but as noted in January raised the rate to something like 62?/minute and is now charging $1.50/month for the US toll free number but the point is they seemed to be using the same carrier so it is our fervent hope this is not raised.
