Its request is proper for call to locations outside the US or Canada; otherwise, it is not. 

This is a disturbingly common complaint. magicJack promises free domestic calls, without limitation, and you're entitled to that benefit.

Your first step might be to reset the device, as explained here. If that doesn't work:

If it's within 30 days, you can return the product using these instructions, but you'll have to bear the cost of return shipping. If magicJack is not fulfilling the terms of its promise, I urge you to complain to the Florida Dept. of Agriculture and Consumer Services, at 850-488-2221 or 2005 Apalachee Pkwy., Tallahassee, FL 32399. You may also want to dispute your payment with your credit/debit card provider.    

Non-domestic calls: At my.magicjack.com go to "My Subscriptions," then to INTERNATIONAL DIALING, and click "Add Credit." Current rates are listed here.
