Part 2What you need to know about toll free callsSaving money with a toll free number can apply to other situations. From reading part 1, "What you need to know about toll free calls" a toll free number saves money, and time. Are you a truck driver, a business person traveling in the US, going on vacation, a person that lives alone and wants your children to call or an RV'er? Let's look at each one:Truck Driver ? You're on the road 10, 20, or more days a month, trying to make a living. Your children are growing up and your not there to help them with their problems. Your wife misses you and wishes you would call home, but the cost to call is prohibitive.
What to do? Well you are in a truck stop, the phone is there to call toll free to find out where your next load is. So why not set up a toll free number to your home? No pin numbers to keep track of, no collect calls to pay when you get home and at just 3.49 cents a minute you can call as many times and as long as you want without building up a large phone bill.Business Person ? You're on the road either to meet with clients, sell your products, or to service the products you or your company sold. Unless you are a millionaire collect calls, phone calling cards, prepaid calling cards and dial around just cost to much. With a toll free number that rings to your home phone, you can now call home anytime. NOTE: your hotel may charge you for a toll free call.
Find out first, if so how much? If over 35 cents you can call from a payphone with a 35 cent connection fee.Vacations ? Heading for the beach, mountains, and / or your favorite lake? Where ever you go your toll free number can keep you in touch with your family back home. Change your toll free number to ring to your son's, daughter's or other family's phone number. Now you can call them for just 3.49 cents a minute, by calling your toll free number. Living alone ? Waiting by the phone, wanting your children or grandchildren to call? You know they don't have the money to call you. Solution: By getting a toll free number you can call, tell them your number for them to call.
Now they have no excuse not to call you.RV'er ? You're on the road, enjoying your new found freedom. You've set your mail to go to your son's or daughter's home. Do you have a home base? If so you and you have a phone there you can set up a toll free number to ring to your son's, or daughter's phone. If not then have your son or daughter set up a toll free number. It's a cheap and easy way to keep in touch.
