I have a few telephone calling card questions:

If a calling card has your full phone number on it, will the number
automatically change if your areacode changes? I live in the part of
the 201 area that becomes 908 next year.

Has anyone compared the surcharges and/or rates charged by the
different types of cards? For example, would it be cheaper to use a NJ
Bell card or an AT&T Universal card to make a given call? (And does it
depend on where one is calling?)
