Title: Free 411
Post by: glenn kangiser on December 20, 2005, 12:03:35 AM
Out on your project -working on your cabin -have a cell phone- don't have a phone directory - don't want to pay $1.29 per number request?

Here's free 4-11 service - you may have to listen to a 12 second advertisement.

1-800-FREE-411     Note- works on all phones - not just cell.

And for those of us who instantly thought--but, I go on-line all the time for phone numbers...

Uh, Amanda, this is an all telephone system.

::)

(I was going to use the Text Toppie to say Thanks but I couldn't figure out how!)

Not all cell service providers give free 800 dialing.  Normal minute charges usually apply.  Verizon used to charge (don't know if they still do or not) and so did Cingular (also not sure if they do or not anymore).
