This will sound odd. I have tried to call a friend in TX- for a few weeks.  I use a phone card to her phone which is a cell phone.

I get "all circuits are busy".

Am I doing something wrong?

What could it be?

the phone card works for family cell phones in Chicago- so it does call cell phones.

I did use the number when I had my cell phone service.  I no longer have cell service.

There is no access charges or any other hidden fees. Just straight up use of talk time. I should also add that it uses the AT&T network and I have never had a problem with service. It can be used from ANY phone.

Status: offline 		I wondered if maybe she changed her number.   The phone rings 2x THEN it says all circuits are busy.

Eventually she will pop up in the yahoo group where we posted - so- - she moved a few times...and I changed my number etc.  But she does know where to find me.  One post and it would do it. I am sure I will hear from her at some point even if it is a year later.  We broke off a larger group- and the few that are in the spin off know ....I can be found there.

The phone card is a cheap online no name brand.
