Phonecards in Europe??
Could anyone please advise where I can get a phonecard much like the AT&T one in the states?
I need to be able to "refill" it using a credit card and have to be able to make international calls. I have heard that AT&T has a card for europe but I have been unable to find any information on it.
Ant information, suggestions, comments and/or ideas are appreciated!

I have not bothered with phone cards since getting a tri-band GSM cellphone. It works in any country except Japan who have a different system.
It is far more convenient than finding a public phone when your hotel has blocked the phone card access numbers and it can receive incomming calls.

Most providers offer cheap calls only from one country, and apply a hefty access charge on top of that.
I've used Alpha Telecom before reasonably happily, though I haven't used it recently.
That's good from the UK (e.g. 4p/min to Germany), and there's information on access charges (e.g. 9p extra from Germany) on the site.
