cheapest way to call home is through skype... which uses the internet and then you will have to set up separate accounts... but like I previously stated a delay may occur depending on how good the internet service is at that moment... best time is early in the morning or late at night...

Hi,

I have heard from a fifth semester student, that they have a common phone in the Mathew Dorm Rooms.

So my plan is when I get to Saba, make a collect call home, however this is a signal for my parents to call me on the Common phone rightaway. This way I am technically making a phone call home. For convenience, I will setup a time and day when I can expect their calls. I am still trying to get the phone number for that phone.

Plabon, can you provide the name of the company that offers 3 hour calls for $4? Is that from Canada to Saba or from Saba to Canada?

Thanks.
