A popular and economical way to call in the USA and in Western Europe is to use 10-10-987.   The cost to Western European countries such Norway, Denmark, Germany is only 39 cents connection fee plus only 3 cents a minute. This service is available if you have local telephone service from major providers like Qwest. I have found some Iowa Independent companies in the rural areas may not permit this service. Try it if your live in a rural area, it might work. To call western European countries, Simply dial 10-10-987 + 011 + (the country's area code) + your party's telephone number. The country code for Norway is 47 The country code for  Denmark is 45 The country code for Germany is 49 Click on this link for more international country codes: http://www.numberingplans.com/kropla/index.php?goto=areacodes&s=AF&action=show To call in the USA dial 10-10-987 + 1 + (area code) + (your party's number).
