FreeCall Alternative?

I have used FreeCall program for a bit [freecall.com AFAIK] and it has worked fine, been using the "DirectCall" method on it. It calls your phone, and once you answer it calls the other person on the same call in a 3 way call. Then once they answer, the freecall hangs up and your friend and you are still connected, and no charges because both were incomming calls. Epicly epic for long distance calls / int'l.

Anyways… the program has been being stuipid. It now will only let me make 10 minutes total of calls, or 5 outgoing calls. Then it will say "BUY CREDITS" and i do not have money.

So simply put - what other good, free, programs can do what FreeCall's DirectDial used to do?

Thanks,
Hy.

@Hugo: I need a program that will call my phone, then call the other person, then hang up, so the call is free, and it will work on my nubby internet.

Download freecall and see for yourself.
http://www.freecall.com/en/index.html @ "Make a free call" box is what I am talking about. Only in the program it is easier and more advanced.

I am on dialup still. That's why I need a "DirectCall" option to work.
And I tried making new accounts and it worked for a while but then the IP Banned me from making new accounts and then said "You've used up all your free credits; buy more to make the call".
