Re: .
I suppose it depends on how savvy you are, but there are "online" calling cards (that is, you use credit/debit card to purchase online + get # + Pin) like Tel3 or Onesuite and charge a flat $0.03/min anywhere in the lower 48 states, it can be instate or out of state. This is with a 800#.
Your local telephone company (with a non monthly fee LD on the line) can't charge for an 800# (or I've never heard of such a thing). So It still comes down to picking a good calling card - but you don't usually pay 8x for a 800 access number.

| AT&T has been crooked for a long time
AT&T was one of the greatest companies in the world!
Unfortunately, that changed a long time ago. I know because I was one of the few hundred that once got charged ~$8 for a collect call from a payphone. The thing was that the payphone had been washed out into the Gulf of Mexico in the No Name Storm weeks before the call was supposedly made.  |

Deep River, CT | This is not the same AT&T... it's the corrupt and bloated SBC simply donning the long-deceased AT&T's skin. |

They tried to charge me for a long distance call to Ohio. I dont know anyone in Ohio. All the little indian guy from their billing dept kept saying was,...(in my best little indian guy accent)..... "Our computers are not wrong". |
