Some LONG-distance companies charge as much as $1.50 PER month to include long-distance charges on the same bill as local charges. These companies include this charge in the billing information they submit to the local company with whom they've contracted to bill for them. A local company that bills for a long-distance company does not authorize a single-bill fee.

Many community BASED telecom providers also offer long-distance service. Customers who want their local and long-distance charges on one combined bill must select their local, long-distance PROVIDER as their preferred carrier. Long distance service provided by community based companies generally offer rates and plans comparable to those of the national carriers. At the same time, community based companies offer the advantage of a long-distance alternative closer to home - with service from PEOPLE you know and trust.
