Verizon customers who make frequent calls from their home phone toother countries can now add the Verizon International Single Rateplan to their service and get great rates for up to 500 minutes ofcalling a month.
Customers with a Verizon Freedom voice plan can add theInternational Single Rate plan for $10 per month for 300 minutes(five hours) or $15 per month for 500 minutes (more than eighthours).* Verizon Freedom Essentials is a common component ofVerizon's bundled offerings of voice, broadband Internet and videoservices.

"International calling plans are in high demand by ourcustomers who make numerous international calls to keep in touchwith family, friends or business associates," said EddieGooge, director of voice products for Verizon. "With our newplan, customers can make international calls for as little as threecents per minute. It's the lowest international rate we've everoffered, and it's comparable to prepaid calling card rates.
