Instructions

    • 1

      Call your telephone service provider and determine if you have an international calling plan on your phone line. Dial the customer service phone number on the top of your phone bill, speak to a representative and ask whether you have such a plan. If you do, you'll be able to call Pakistan. If you do not have an international plan, ask to subscribe to one; a monthly fee will appear on your next phone bill. Hang up with the representative.
