 Ladies and Gentlemen:

      You have requested our opinion, as counsel for Dial Thru International
 Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with
 the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission
 of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement")
 registering 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value
 per share, for issuance pursuant to the Company's 2002 Equity Incentive Plan
 (the "Plan").

      In connection with this opinion, we have examined copies or originals
 of such documents, resolutions, certificates and instruments of the Company
 as we have deemed necessary to form a basis for the opinion hereinafter
 expressed.  In addition, we have reviewed certificates of public officials,
 statutes, records and other instruments and documents as we have deemed
 necessary to form a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed.  In
 our examination of the foregoing, we have assumed, without independent
 investigation, (a) the genuineness of all signatures and the authority
 of all persons or entities signing all documents examined by us, and
 (b) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the
 conformity to authentic original documents of all copies submitted to us as
 certified, conformed or photostatic copies.  With regard to certain factual
 matters, we have relied, without independent investigation or verification,
 upon statements and representations of representatives of the Company.  We
 do not express any opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the
 General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, including statutory and
 reported decisional law thereunder.

      Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the 2,000,000 shares
 covered by said Registration Statement, when issued or sold in accordance
 with the terms of the Plan, will be legally issued, fully-paid and non-
 assessable.

      We hereby consent to being named as counsel to the Company in the
 Registration Statement, to the references therein to our firm under the
 caption "Legal Matters" and to the inclusion of this opinion as an exhibit
 to the Registration Statement.  In giving this consent, we do not thereby
 admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required
 under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the
 Commission thereunder.


                               Very truly yours,

                               /s/ Newmeyer & Dillion LLP

                               NEWMEYER & DILLION LLP
