Does any members know where I could buy a Vietnamese calling card in HCM that would allow me to call the UK at reasonable rates when I visit Vietnam

I appreciate any assistance members may be able to offer

The best option for you buy credit on Skype and use it. Its very reasonable rate for USA OZ and the UK.
I have never heard any international calling card in Vietnam.

Hi Andy I Need a calling card to call my 92 year old mother. She does not have a computer or smart phone.

Hello

Could you tell me what exactly your meaning of Calling card?  I do not know what are you looking.  Using Skype credit you can call any phone number at anywhere. no one needs smartphone or internet except you.

In the UK I have and use an international calling card that allows me to call the U.S., Vietnam and other countries for 1p and 2p per minute instead of paying £1 per minute or more.

I was hoping Vietnam might have international cards.

You will discover as I did that those calling cards, which are still in use in Europe, are not here in Vietnam. At least, when asked, people looked at me like I was from Mars.

See the instructions above. Skype can call ANY number. If not a Skype member, you pay about 20 cents US per minute. I find it really useful to call businesses in the USA. and my Italian friends in Italy.

Viber is a lot cheaper than Skype.  Audio calls are something like 6 cents US in what they call "Viber out" which is when the recipient does not have Viber on their phone.  If both parties have Viber and both are on wi-fi, the calls are free.
