I’m looking for a long distant carrier for my land line phone. Any recommendations?
Kamandi, thank you…I will go check out the site! I had found some sites, and some really obscure companies that I had never heard of.
I am still kinda hoping someone will say, “Hey Polly, I use so-and-so and they are great!”
And… Kamandi, thank you for replying and not letting this go down as a thread w/ no replies!!

Heh, heh. You’ll get over having your threads die a quick death soon enough, Grasshopper. Don’t take it personally.
Searching the SDMB archives for “long distance” brought me this thread:

Don’t know if it’ll be of any help.
For what it’s worth, I’ve used 10-10-220 for nearly a year with no problems. Your thread prompted me to re-examine the competing rates and discover that 10-10-220 is no longer competitive for my calling pattern. I think I’ll switch to 10-15-335.
So: thanks, Polly!
I use Essential.com for my long distance. 4.5 cents a minute.
Kamandi, thanks for the link. When I searched earlier…I searched in IMHO not GQ.
Arden, I will check out essential.com. Thank you!
I use Qwest. I signed up over the internet and they charge my credit card directly-no bill sent out. I get 5 cents state-to-state, and they just raised it to 11 cents in-state. The good thing is I don’t have a minimum charge like so many of them have. No calls, no bill(except taxes??).
I have MCI for both local and long distance. I pay 7 cents a minute for long distance, and I forget how much I pay for in-state. I know that’s fairly expensive, but I get miles on American Airlines (5 miles per dollar spent), so there is a bonus there.
