Beware !!!!, of the phones plastered all over some towns, usually on the front of businesses. They are marked "TO CALL LONG DISTANCE TO THE USA & CANADA, SIMPLY DIAL 0" The writing is in black and USA is in blue letters with CANADA in red letters. They also have pictures of credit cards on the signs. The phones are put there by a private phone company and are VERY, VERY EXPENSIVE. You will probably faint when you see your phone bill or credit card bill. It is best to purchase a Pre-Paid phone card or dial 01 800 111-SAVE from any phone in México. You can use this number to make credit card calls, collect calls and even calls using your calling card from your long distance company in the U.S.
