Long Distance charges

If I don't have a long distance add on plan and receive a call from Scotland, does anyone know what the per minute charge would be?

That's not a long distance for you to receive the call, and there will be no extra charge. It doesn't matter for you where someone is calling you from.

You can receive calls from anywhere with no charge to you (unless a collect call and ho would that work with PM) All long distance charges would be on the call initiation end and not the receiving

I thought that 500 minutes of long distance was only for Canada / US calling within North America.

The $5 500 minute add-on only includes Canadian long distance (no minutes to call the U.S.).

The free 500 minute add-on includes many more countries.

What happens if I am on a Canada only plan and I call the USA by accident?

The call will fail unless you have a long distance add-on that includes calling the U.S.
