You asked me to give you a call once I'm free vs You asked me to give you a call once I was free

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. The first phrase 'you asked me to give you a call once I'm free' is in the present tense, indicating that the action of being free is still expected to happen. The second phrase 'you asked me to give you a call once I was free' is in the past tense, suggesting that the action of being free has already occurred. The choice between the two depends on whether the speaker is currently free or was free at a specific point in the past.
