Tesco International Calling Cards - www.tescocallingcard.com

Unable to make calls to the UK from Turkey, just no tone nothing. Contacted customer service I had a reply then nothing. Tried to send more email's only to be told by email that they failed to go through. I was sold this by a Tesco rep telling me how good they are but after nearly two weeks its still not resolved, just a fortune in roaming charges because I was left with no choice but to use Vodafone . This was to keep in touch with my elderly mother. Due to the cost I could only phone her every other day. Thanks Tesco if I had known the issues I was going to have I would have used a better service. Looking at the reviews lot's of people having the same problem so please at least refund my credit.

I bought this for phoning South Africa. I used it for many years but I was never happy. The quality of the call was often poor, sometimes unusable. What really annoyed me was that when I only needed to use it occasionally then it wasted a lot of money. I would top up to use it, then the next time all the credit had been lost because it wasn't used in time. So I had to top up agian. Then the next time that money was lost and wasted. My overall opinion is it is a poor service.

Don't touch them.

EVERY single attempt to call gave me a 'we cannot connect you. Try again later' type message.

Also your credit on the account expires whether you use it or not.

....and I work for Tesco!

It is absolutely rubbish these days. Waste of money. Anytime you call either through WiFi or mobile data absolutely rubbish. The person you call cannot hear you. This is with strong Internet connections both ends. Disappointed. I will never buy it again. I want to pass important message across, you can't. Frustrated and regret I bought it. I am not recommending it.

Tesco Internationalwas Gresford me to phn South Africa 10 pence cell phn 1 pence to landlines, zero to send a txt, now I can't send either! Alli get is error and just try to contact the customer care services,

Best of luck, my rating is ZERO.

I occasionally phone Spain, but this is not frequent.

Hence I lost most of my credit remaining. DONT TOP UP MORE THAN £5. Only top up when you might be deciding to make calls. Bets are that you will still lose your credit as you forget it’s there. They really need to extend their period of expiry.

I checked the international rates, Italy and Switzerland,on the website, downloaded the app and topped up account. The next day I tried several times to call a landline number in Italy and there was no connection. Same automatic message saying that a connection was not possible. I was able to call mobile numbers, good connection but in the meantime the call rates had doubled and when I emailed Tesco International I was told that rates can change at any time. Change yes, but double?

I have deposited £20 on this card but was able to use it only once for a few minutes. The connection was terrible and I could not hear anything. I could not use it after, understandably, but Tesco Calling card SEIZED all my credit still. This is exactly how they behave. I trusted Tesco brand but I see it is just another company to avoid.

Luckily, I was able to try this app by using the free £1 credit they give you, thank goodness I didn't waste my money. I needed to call a couple of numbers in France, one a local council and one a museum, both standard geographic landlines. The app would not dial and connect. I called Tesco's helpline, to be told that the app doesn't work for 'business' numbers only private. Premium rate numbers I can understand, but not business numbers, what use is that? Steer clear, I'll be buying a Post Office card that they have already confirmed is quite capable of connecting to the numbers that I want to call. Expected better of Tesco.

I am surprised that at this day and age, a company is selling such a stupid phone card which never works. DO NOT BUY THIS CARD.
