Anyone know anything about this?? (829 area code)

[3somefan]

One of boys told me that he got a call from his chica in the DR. She changed her number to the (829) area code and told him the reason she did this is because it would now be free to call her from the US, using that Dominican area code.

Have any of you guys heard of this?? I am guessing it is something new...

Anybody know the provider??


Thanks!

Hes right 829 is what they started using a while ago when 809 got pretty much used up. In the DR all inbound calls are free like TropicBob said. The caller pays.

Damn did you fall for another chica there????

Free to call her, that is the stupidiest thing I heard in a long time.

Beads is right 829 is just a new area code there.

I think this is it buddy!! Thanks.

He said that she JUST switched her number. He doesn't speak very good Spanish and her English isn't good, so I can only imagine the conversation!! That is why he asked me to ask the experts!

I have been using them for months I have a local number for who ever I call and it was costing me 9 cents a mintue from my cell .They emailed me that last wek I have not tried it.You know Dominicans can get things mixed up.

Interesting concept but that's still 9 cents a minute. You can get calling cards with the same or similar rates too.

If you on the Eascoast maybe.But not in the Midwest.Its cheaper if you use a Land Line.

Not to a cell phone. The best I can do with a feeless cc is about 12 cents.

There are cards out that charge less per minute, but they have weekly/monthly fees, connection fees, or bill in 2 or 4 minute increments.

For a while there, I was calling the DR every day for a shitload of minutes (guess why)

I found out that there are certain carriers of prepaid phones that do not discriminate between all the area codes that they service on "The Americas" list.

What that means is that you can call the DR for the same rate that you call the next state.

The actual cost per minute varies according to a number of factors, the way it would if you were calling here.

Those factors include how many minutes you buy at once, if you buy a double minutes, or use another volume buying program.

This was the best deal I found, and I looked alot.

For a while there, I was using over 5,000 minutes a month.

For specifics, if you have the need, PM me. I don't want to fuck the situation I found by doing a shitload of comparison shopping by posting the details openly.
