Free Online Help to Prevent Overpaying Long-distance, Cell Phone, and Internet Access Charges

February 27, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Wakefield, NH — American consumers, driven by their addiction to brand name telephone services, waste billions of dollars each year simply because they just do not know what their alternatives are.

"The truth is, almost every consumer out there could cut their monthly phone bills by
a third, or even in half. One or two minutes is all it takes to save to use the free on-line calculator to compare companies and find the lowest rates," explained David M. Bresnahan, owner of Freedom Barter Exchange. His company sponsors the free service to help consumers.

The majority of consumers turn to the major companies, such as Verizon, SBC, AT&T, Bell South and others, because of brand name recognition, according to Bresnahan. He says those companies are over charging consumers 50 percent or more to make in-state and out-of-state long distance calls.

"People pay those higher rates month after month, effectively throwing money away. Money they could be using to pay down other debts, give to charity, or invest in their future," said Bresnahan.

"I switched my own long distance service to an alternate provider and immediately saved about $30 a month. My business went from a per minute charge to unlimited long-distance saving me thousands a year. The quality of service is every bit as good as it has ever been. The only difference is that I now pay significantly less," he explained.
