$8.88!!!! how you get it that low? Just getting a dial tone where I live is close to $15 and that's without the taxes. Maybe it has gone down, 'cause that was several years ago, but I doubt it.

In NJ, rates are low, but unlike the DC metro area where most of Montgomery County, PG County, DC and Northern VA are local calls, a short distance outside your home town in NJ and it's long distance.

If one has cable or FiOS, one has the option to forgo a landline and get VoIP plans with every imaginable feature, unlimited local and long distance calling for $25, about $30 with taxes and fees. Or one could get a stripped down, limited VoIP plan in the $10 to $15 neighborhood.

Any way Verizon packages it, landlines are overpriced for what you get, and they are just bandaging a dying service.
