Open a voicestick.com account - You can make calls to the DR from a cell phone through a feature they have called i bridge.
Its about 5 cents(min) to call a landline, about 10 cents to call a mobile. No connection fee, no weekly fees like the calling cards. Good customer service. No codes to enter. I have used it for over a year. It has a lot of options and you dont have to commit to a plan with their pay as you go feature. When I am in the DR, I give my friends/family/business accociates in the USA my local NY voicestick number and the calls are forwarded to my DR cell using their international call fowarding feature. Like Vonage you can take the actual adaptor to the DR if you had high speed in the DR or you can bring a usb stick and easily use it in any high speed call center. The quality is not as good as vonage, but the ibridge feature is a very good thing Vonage does not have.
VoiceStick.com - Low International Phone Rates
ps - I still use a calling card if I know It will be a very long call. The best one right now in the NY area (even staten island) is "La Tarjetica"
