Whether you use a calling card or a long distance provider, the rate for calling a cellphone number in the UK from the USA, is more than 10 times the rate to call a landline. For example, Yahoo Voice charges about 1.7c a minute for landline numbers in the UK, but 20.5c a minute for cellphone numbers! That's more than a factor of 10 between the two rates (literally an order of magnitude), and this is true for any provider or calling card!!
Why is it SO much more expensive to call a cellphone number in the UK, while here in the US, a number is just a number, and its the same rate no matter what kind of phone it is?
