Penn State Corporate
Calling Card
(for University Park locations)
Cancel your Corporate Calling Card
The University no longer recommends
the use of the Corporate Calling Card, due to it's higher rates.
As an alternative, the Penn
State Travel Calling Card and International
Prepaid Calling Cards allow global access at the most affordable
rates.
The exception is international
calling on restricted budgets such as those with federal or federal flow-through monies that
require call detailed reporting. (See FN21).
All other users should cancel their Corporate Calling Card.
 Traveling
Internationally on a Restricted Budget
Penn State Corporate Calling Cards are issued to Penn State faculty
and staff for dialing internationally, when the department is using
a restricted budget. The card features a Penn State logo, making it
easily identifiable as an institutional card,
and is assigned a 10-digit number and a 4-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN).
Requesting or Canceling a Card
All requests for services or cancellation should be submitted on a Telecommunications Service
Requisition (TSR) Form. The college or department must complete
the TSR by obtaining proper authorizing signature(s). For more information, please contact TNS via the web inquiry form
(Long Distance Services Inquiry Form) or by calling
