Make Unlimited Free Calls on Your Cellphone with Google Voice – Google Voice – Lifehacker.
Most cellphone carriers provide a feature allowing you a certain number of contacts that you can call, on any network, for free, anytime. So what happens when you team up this feature with your Google Voice number?
In yesterday’s Tips Box post, one reader used his cellphone provider’s “My Circle” feature to make unlimited free calls with Google Voice.
The idea is that if you only use Google Voice to send and receive calls—and you set Google Voice so that it only displays your Google Voice number when it rings, all of your calls will be free, and you may never need to use another minute again. Each carrier is different, so we’re looking at what each plan looks like, and how to use it with Google Voice to get free calls.
For this to work at all, head to Google Voice’s Call Settings page and make sure Caller ID is set to Display my Google Voice number. (See the screenshot) Then just add your Google Voice number to your carrier’s respective friends and family plan.
