I just realized that my friend who has been calling me for 3 months has a 3 digit area code just like the US. I tried calling him using a 1+area code+number (which is just like our numbers) and it went through so I called my cell company and they said it doesn't cost any extra to call Quebec than it does within the US. Is this really correct? I know I can't call Mexico from my cell phone.
Has anyone called Canada and it didn't cost extra? I don't trust my cell company because the CSRs are in the Philipines and have given me wrong information many times.

I always figured you could call anywhere in the world from a cell. I use prepaid so I pay the exact same amount no matter where in the world I call.

Mine doesn't let me call anywhere that doesn't have the same sequence of area code + phone numbers as we have. I can call the Caribbean too. But I don't know if it costs more.
