Calls for Information are expensive!
Most Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411 information calls. Since very few of us, probably close to none of us carry a telephone directory in our vehicle, we may often need to use this service.
Instead of using the 411 information option, there is a free service. Simply dial 1 (800) FREE 411, or 1 (800) 373-3411.
While there is not a cost for the 411 information, you must remember that while you are placing that call, it’s not free from your cell phone. The call will use your minutes and the average call is around 2 minutes.
How can they offer this service for free. They use the power of advertising. Before you are given the telephone number that you want, you will be required to listen to an advertisement.
The best bargain would be to use it from your home or office phone. From those the only cost is the couple of minutes of your time.
