When calling different cell providers(say, in Europe) the destination operators impose their own different rate e.g Vodafone .11/min, Orange .17/min etc.
And landline is usually way cheaper.
Does PM have such a breakdown with rates per country/per operator ?

If you're not satisfied with the years of experience of fellow customers then all you can do is contact the moderators that work for the company.
The call logs do not display like that.
Destinations are about the country, not the area code within that country.
That Japan call shows as 9 seconds on my phone. It shows as 29 seconds here because the clock starts when you press go. Then it will show on the front page counter rounded up to the next minute. The Charge column doesn't show amounts because it's all pre-paid. The front page counter is the number that matters.

Does PM have statements/usage logs with breakdowns like this:
Oct 12 0114556789 14 min $ 0.56
Oct 16 0114546677 14 min $ 1.68
Oct 20 0114564560 14 min $ 2.30
Calls made from Canada to same destination country
First is a landline, 2nd and 3rd different cell providers
I'm looking for answers from people with actual experience, not merely guesses
Thanks

Can anybody confirm PM is charging a per minute flat rate for the $15 group of countries?
There's nothing to confirm. It's just how they work. You buy the add-on to call whatever country or set of countries and you consume the minutes you paid for over time. The minutes are consumed at the same pace for each destination.

If you are talking about the plan below. You get 300 minutes for $15 which work out to .05 per minute.

Destination Prefix Increment Rate/minute
France 33590 6 $0.0144 France 334156 6 $0.0144 France 335676 6 $0.0214
I doubt that PM has a unique rate per destination country: in some case the per minute rate can be 5-10X higher
Ok then. No they don't. It's just the cost for the add-on divided by the quantity of minutes. There are only the 3 single international destinations. The rest are groups of countries. The recipient needs to be able to take the call from an international caller.

@rxva No they do not.

It sounds like you're wondering what the inbound cost agreements are when people in other countries call to here. But maybe I've mis-interpreted.

Here is the list of the various long distance add ons. From my understanding, there is no difference between calling long distance landlines and mobile lines, etc. Not all countries are covered by the add ons though.

@rxva At PM you can buy various bundles if long distance minutes. There is no additional cost to you where that call is made.
My parents used to call Italy from their land line. I have since convinced them it was easier and cheaper to call from their cellphones, especially cellphones in Italy vs a landline in Italy.

PM is prepaid and you would purchase a LD add-on at certain price. There is no charge per minute.
