•Watch out for
monthly fees: Some plans charge a minimum monthly fee. There is nothing illegal about this practice. This may be a simple and inexpensive way to go if you make several long distance calls every month. The monthly fee provides very low rates and can save you substantial money every month. Some companies try to keep people focused on
per minute rate and then
monthly fee is buried in
small print. So please be aware of this when selecting
right plan for you. Many carriers offer no monthly fee or minimum usage if
account is set up for automatic credit card payments. If you can pay by credit card we definitely recommend doing so to avoid monthly fees or minimum usage fees.
•You should review your bill every month: Many people tend to accept their bills without question, and this can be a terrible mistake. Billing errors do occur and a careful review could save you money.
•Become familiar with
rate structures within your area: Become familiar with
current interstate and intrastate rates in your area. Look at your current calling pattern and determine
types of calls you traditionally make. Determine if you are calling mostly interstate, intrastate or international. Compare this information with
types of plans available in your area. It does you no good to have an interstate calling rate of 8.5-cents if most of your calls are intrastate and costing you 10-cents per minute. You need to shop all of
prices and compare them to your specific calling pattern.
