Sarah,

my recommendation is to forget about a permanent subscription with a long
distance carrier and use 10-10 numbers instead, especially if you call to
different countries on a regular basis. For Switzerland, I use 10-16-868 at
something like 9 or 11 cents a minute. You can check out all rates at
www.1010phonerates.com

cheers
