    Inside your Yahoo messenger dial +18003733411 and press enter (as shown in figure).

    Now a small window pops up like the one shown below.

    An operator greets you with a recorded welcome message along with an advertisement and

    asks you to select one of the Free411 service. Just hear the services options until they say the

    last one as Free Call. When you hear this, dont press any number on your keyboard and

    instead SAY Free call loudly on your microphone connected to your PC.

    After this voice message is detected by their system, they will run a short advertisement oftheir sponsor and make sure you don't press any number at this time.

    WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR A BEEP SOUND after the following message Please dial thephone number country code first, don't forget to dial 1 for north America

    After you hear this message ,immediately dial the destination number of your choice along

    with the country code.(e.g. for north America it's 1 and for India it's 91)

    Your call will get connected and you can talk for 7 minutes continuous for free. When it getsdisconnected, repeat the same procedure again. You can make multiple and unlimited calls

    with this service.

    It was never easy to make a free international call like this before.

    So what's the catch?FREE411 service toll-free number is based in USA. This company gets paid for the

    advertisements from sponsors.Are there any limits on the number of call which we can make?

    No. There is no limit on the number of free calls which can be made through this system.

    So enjoy this trick to make free international and local calls and make sure you dont abuse

    the system.
