You don't have to spend a small fortune on your telephone bill every month. Here are some tips you can implement to stretch your pennies and keep your budget reasonable and start saving today.
•Whenever possible select the right time to make your call:
Determine your current calling patterns and whenever possible make your calls during the evening hours or during the weekends. By changing your calling pattern you could reduce your long distance charges significantly.
•Select a plan with the smallest billing increment available:
Whenever possible you should select a long distance billing plan with the lowest billing increments. The smaller the billing increment the cheaper the overall price. Some plans offer a 6 second billing increments, which will save you big money compared to plans that round the call up to a whole minute.
•Use our web site to compare carriers and plans.
You should compare several different long distance providers before you make your selection. You will then be able to make an informed decision to determine which carrier offers the least expensive plan for your calling habits and geographic location. Use our "Best Rate Calculator" to obtain a detailed analysis of your calling patterns and the lowest domestic and international long distance rates available in your area.
•When should you subscribe to a long distance calling plan:
You should consider subscribing to a long distance calling plan if you make more than a few long distance calls each month. By checking with different carriers through our web site you will be able to compare plans and select one that more closely matches your needs and budget.
•Whatever you do, do not use a long distance operator:
Using a long distance operator can cost you dearly. You should call direct whenever possible. Using a long distance calling plan will save you even more.

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 the per minute rate and then the monthly fee is buried in the small print. So please be aware of this when selecting the right plan for you. Many carriers offer no monthly fee or minimum usage if the 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 the rate structures within your area:
Become familiar with the current interstate and intrastate rates in your area. Look at your current calling pattern and determine the types of calls you traditionally make. Determine if you are calling mostly interstate, intrastate or international. Compare this information with the 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 the prices and compare them to your specific calling pattern.
